    I bought this for my daughter and she loves it! I will be buying this dot for myself. I bought this for her for Christmas with the fire TV that also has Alexa so they work in different areas of the house for her convenience. Great purchase! I would definitely recommend.

    So fun to use! It was easy to set up and easy to use. I forgot to bring it in from the deck after a party. It rained that night. I thought I had ruined it. But it still works! I love this! Real quality!

    This little device definitely comes in handy. Especially when you have family over and can’t figure out who is right when a question is asked, all you have to do is ask alexa. It can be used for anything. The kids in the family love to use it when they come over too

    Love my echo dot! Super useful when your bored. I always ask her dumb questions and she always has an answer. Also when I am to lazy to do things she’s the perfect helper like state the time or what the weather is outside for the day.

    This device is perfect for the not so technical person. It is easy to setup and use. My husband and I have thoroughly enjoyed using our Echo Dot (3rd Generation). We are seriously thinking about purchasing the larger Alexa so we can control multiple items in our home.

    I purchased this for my daughter to use in her college dorm room. She absolutely loves the fact that it connects with her Roku T.V, it gives her the sound she needs and the ability to talk to Alexa.

    This is my first step into the whole Amazon Alexa world...pretty simple...and my kids get a kick out her jokes. It's nice to have music play in the kitchen while I cook or if I need to know the weather before running out the door... totally worth the price on sale..;)

    The Amazon Dot is a great device. However, I wanted to use it with my Nest thermostat for in room temperature adjustments. So I had to return this and Best Buy was great about it. I switched to the Google device.

    Just plug it in and follow the instructions to set it up on the internet. Once it is connected to your wifi it works fine. But there are few instructions on how it works or what the features are. The manual that comes with it does not even tell you what the buttons on it are for. Sometimes it lights up for no reason. Found out this means it has a message, but could not figure out how get it to deliver the message. Needs better operating information.
