    Great! This product is easy and fun to use. You do have to purchase a subsription with amazon alexa in order for the device to play and record you choose, otherwise, it will play something similar. I've owned for nearly a year and no issues.

    I really love my echo dot (3rd Gen). I now have two (2) of them and a echo show and appreciate that they make my life easier. I use them to control my smart devices (lights switches/dimmers, bulbs, sockets, TV & soundbar, music, thermostat, security cameras and security system). Importantly too, I use for sleep sounds when am having trouble falling asleep. Speaker sound quality is average though. Great product - I would recommend to anyone

    I am enjoying having the echo dot in my home, it's the start of making my home smart, I was given a smart bulb with my purchase of the dot but haven't tried it yet. As for the dot I really like what I can do with it and i will be making my house smarter.

    The third-generation Echo Dot trades in the all-plastic sides of its predecessors for a cloth-covered finish. With softer, more-rounded edges, the new Dot looks less like a hockey puck and more like something you'd want in your living room. One other minor improvement is that the third-generation Echo Dot supports 802.11ac Wi-Fi, while the second-generation supported only 802.11n.

    I've had a few of these and the speakers work great. Although I'm still trying how to daisy change them together. The (3rd Gen) was quite an improvement over the (2nd Gen) in clarity and volume.

    We love the echo dots! I have 3 of them in my house and just recently realized we can talk from one room to the other using the Alexa Announce option. Saves a lot of yelling and running up and down the stairs.

    I have used both Google and Amazon products and it seems that the Amazon products are easier to set up. Alexa and Google still have some issues, but they seem to get smarter each year. The difference - at least to me - is that Amazon products seem to be "smarter" out of the box.

    I bought this for my godmother for Christmas. She absolutely loves it! She can listen to all of her favorite songs just by asking the device to play it. She gets the name wrong most of the time but for the most part she has no problems getting it to play.

    This is very new technology for me so I am still learning all the things it can do. It was very easy to set up. I'm liking the trivia games. I also play my Sirius radio through it. Set alarms, get local weather and temperatures.

    I got 2 of these free with the purchase of my Ring doorbells. I am amazed on how loud they are and with the house having a mixture of Apple products and google products and Prime you can’t go wrong. I am just worried about ALEXA always listening to everyone talk.

    This was free with a TV purchase I made and was perfect for adding music to the patio. Sounds better than expected and all I really needed out there. Hooked right up to the WiFi...no issues at all.

    Use these to attach to other speakers I have including a sound bar. Works great for that application and it came with a bonus alexa lightbulb my wife loves to tell it what to do.

    Got this one to give as a gift. The sound quality is decent, and although not as good as the standard Echo (which is expected given the price point), it is an improvement over the previous generation Dots. And it performs all the Alexa skills. The recipient of this gift is quite happy with it.
