    I have a 2nd gen dot that works great. Bought the 3rd gen for my bedroom and it just works. No complaints at all. Great for controlling smart plugs or playing music. Would highly recommend.

    Haven’t figured out everything it can do but it’s nice to be able to use my cell phone to broadcast into the kid’s rooms to tell them dinner is ready. They like listening to music.

    The amazon echo 3rd Gen is a 1000 times better than the previous echo 2 gen. It's worth upgrading if you have the older model. Sound quality is better all around and the design is much more sheik.

    I bought this echo dot for another room in my house and I love how small and compact it is compare to my full size echo that I have in the living room of my home. Simple to setup and sounds great.

    I have one in every room in my house! It’s definitely a essential! Especially if you have kids! I can drop in on my kids to tell them something or say an announcement all around my house. Its also nice to have a speaker for music in everyroom. We have alexia lights all through our home as well its so convenient to tell alexia to turn lights off and on. I would  definitely recommend.

    Same as the Old Dot, But Better Looking

    I use the Echo Dots for Wemo and Ring product remote activation: "Alexa, turn off the Man Cave Lights" or "Alexa, arm the Ring Security System"... most often I use it to turn off the bedroom lights at night without having to get out of bed. Speaker is average, if you're looking for quality audio step up to the full size Echo or get a better standalone unit dedicated for that purpose. Functionality is great, especially for getting your morning news in a 5-minute chunk via the "Flash Briefing" function. Love the product, especially at the $20/25 price point when it's on sale. I'm at 4 units, plus the Kid version for my 7-year old... and I'll probably end up with a few more.

    Better than previous gen Dot

    Got 3 of these for a good deal to replace some older Dots, and allow me to shuffle my setup around to maximize my coverage. One of the new Dots actually replaced a 2nd gen Echo (full size) on my office desk because I realized that I never ever ran the Echo at a high volume and its superior quality sound was better used elsewhere in my house. But to compare apples for apples, this generation of Dot does seem to have a richer/warmer sound quality than the pervious generation, particularly at higher volume . Other than that they seem to have the exact same functionality/limits and capability. Setup seemed to go smoother than with the previous generation but I think that is more an upgrade to the Alexa software package than the hardware. One thing that surprised me is that with the new style with the fabric wrapping and the rounded top it is slightly larger and at least to my eye slightly more noticeable/conspicuous than the 2nd gen Dots. They do match nicely with the Echos that I have in other places and for some reason that matters to my wife. You might guess that I am committed to the Echo-sphere and you'd be right.
