    I use my Alexa at work as a portable speaker to play music (so I don't use it for the myriad of other things/features it offers). It is more than adequate for my needs. I like the small size.

    Great sound, easy to use. I’ve been recommending them to everyone I know since! We’d been using expensive portable speakers in each room and the sound doesn’t even compare!

    Easy to install and nice for security. Have added a second dot in the basement. It is nice to be able to play music on both. You do have to get her attent before you give command. Sometimes she does not understand and babbles. It is also nice to have with plugs and switches in your home that it will operate.

    I love my echo dot. I have four of them and they really help make my life easier. They can control almost everything, lights, locks TV, music, thermostat. It hears you almost all of the time and I've run into very few issues with it overall. I really couldn't ask for a more helpful device. It's even more handy when I found that I could get a battery base for it. The GGMM D3 base that I found lets me carry the alexa dot around pretty much anywhere. I love that I can take it into the bathroom with me and listen to music while I shower or take it outside and listen to music. That's really the only thing I think it was missing.

    This 3rd Gen Alexa Dot has drastically improved since the 1st Gen of which I own. The speaker is much louder and better quality. Setup is straightforward and took less than 5 minutes. Highly recommend.

    The sound on this little Echo is excellent for its compact size. Perfect for the night stand or other smaller space, and Alexa on the Ech works so well, and does so much more than some of the other assistants.

    The 3rd generation echo dot is an excellent addition to the other Echo's around the house. It's small and can easily hide under a TV on a stand. It also has a nice sound coming from this compact speaker.

    Slightly larger unit versus v2, but with much improved speakers/audio. I am not an audiophile, and have used both echo and echo dot. For the price, echo dot is fine for my use in both bedrooms and living rooms.
