    Bought the Echo to stream music to my Sony stereo receiver that does not have Blue Tooth capability. I have Sirius / XM and I can now play the XM streaming service thru my whole house stereo system. Just need a 3.5mm to RCA stereo audio cable and plug it into the back of the Echo Dot audio line out and the other end into your stereo receiver. I can also Blue Tooth my iPad music thru the Echo Dot from my ITunes library. Set up was easy using the Alexa app and I like the low profile of the unit on my entertainment center.

    I received this for free with an Fire tv I purchased. I was so excited because I have been wanting to try an Echo. I am happy with it. It's fun and helps with things like grocery list and quickly looking up information or just playing music when you're doing things around the house.

    Purchased this for my in-laws to add another device in their house. Now they have three in the house - one in the bedroom, kitchen & office so Alexa is readily available. They love the convenience of controlling lights, music, etc all by voice command & also the ability to broadcast from room to room. Great price and so easy to set up. Highly recommend it.

    This is my 3rd one and I love them but, they can be VERY frustrating to set up depending on what you want to do. I have mine in a music group so you can hear the same channel in all 3 rooms. For what ever reason.....they don't always stay connected together and as of last Monday I cant get them back to playing together. I spent several hours trying everything I read to do without success. Very frustrating! She does do the easy stuff very well and have her paired with several other smart devices. Still love her even though she can be a little ……..

    This was an upgrade from the previous Echo Dot. WOW, what a difference. The sound while playing music is amazing! Even if you just use this as a Bluetooth speaker its worth it. It will be loud enough for a medium size room. Highly recommend this. The Alexa voice commands are also very useful, like adding things to a shopping list instead of writing it down

    This Echo works great, as the last generation one did, summoning Alexa to answer instantly, and carry out tasks, etc. But where the improvement over the last generation Echo is that this little thing can really pump out some clean sound. This model is great for a kid room, bathroom, or kitchen so you can listen to music while your there, get a recipe, etc.

    We have 3 Alexa's in our home. One in the bedroom, one in the living room and we got this one for our backyard. It's linked up to our Ring and so no matter where we are in the house, Alexa is there to alert us of any one at the door. I really enjoy having these devices throughout the house. It makes life a little easier.
