    I use Echo dots in my apartment and it has made simple things like setting timers and automating lights a breeze. I recently got my parent's one and after only a week they were already using it with routines and were raving how much they could do with it. Great product.

    We have these in various rooms throughout the house and I even have one connected to my stereo in my workshop for streaming music via Pandora. Works great for whole house music and so much more.

    I use my Echo Dot to stream Sirius and Spotify because Jazz is limited in the city of San Antonio. I haven't used the other options yet, but I know that when I do I will be amazed, and happy with the results. Happy customer, excellent purchase.

    This came as a gift with purchase when I got my Ring cameras. I wasn't ever interested in a Dot prior... but I didn't know what I was missing! Now I find myself trying to ask Alexa to do things when I'm not near her! Might have to purchase a few more!

    We wanted an better way to communicate between floors on the house and this works great for that. Alexa is great for hands-off questions, getting weather, setting reminders, etc. It's easy to use but there are almost too many options. I like playing background music from Amazon or the services that I already have. It would be nice if there was a digital audio output to connect to my stereo. The sound is OK but not great.

    Its always nice just to ask alexa the weather, question, baking time , pretty much anything you would google to find answer you can ask ! We set it up in kitchen and ask her questions all the time. It will play music also if you want a little oldies while eating dinner !

    I resisted “The Man” listening in at my house to all of my conversations and arguing— haha These things are pretty cool. You can say hey Alexa, play 80s One Hit Wonders and was la, you are back in the club. The sound isn’t too shabby either.

    I got this for free with the purchase of my tv so I wasn't expecting anything from it. Little did I know it would become essential to my living. I now have a ton of smart devices that I control with this little echo. I absolutely adore the little beast!

    I own several of these. They work great. I use them for timers, alarm clock, operate tv, operate sound system, play music, operate lights, etc. Don’t believe everything you hear about these ease dropping on you. You can control what is kept online with settings.

    This device took some time to set up being my first time, but once it was linked it works great. Looks good, great sound for such a small speaker and was able to hook up my other devices with no problems.

    Got Alexa as a gift and bought echos to put in several rooms. They were a little hard to set up (my tech skills are low), but once established I can turn on lights on in the kitchen from the bedroom and in the garage from the bedroom, etc. I love the convenience of echo!

    I have purchased three Echo Dots on sale and use the "everywhere" speaker group feature to listen to music throughout the house. The sound quality is good enough for everyday listening - I have also connected a couple of Bose speakers using Echo input devices.

    For a small device, the sound is great. Got rid of my alarm clock radio as Echo is now used to wake me to music. Lots of possibilities to use including control of lights, temperature, etc. Alexa’s jokes need work though. LOL Ps I bought a few for friends too!

    This is the 1st dot that I have owned so I can't compare it to the previous versions. The Dot ver 3 has a really good speaker. It can get pretty loud for such a small unit and it's very easy to connect it to a Bluetooth speaker if you want something louder or better quality for streaming music. It easily connects to your home wifi (no computer needed) via the Alexa app on your phone. Setup took about 2 minutes. Now I am able to control my Hue lights with my voice set a timer or just ask random questions. The initial offer price at 2 for $50 is a steal. I picked up 4 and am very happy with the results.

    This is a nice upgrade to the Echo Dot. It works very well with my smart lightbulbs across multiple rooms. I got this one free with my purchase of a 65" Insignia Fire TV but will purchase another Dot for bedroom.
