    I purchased this with the Amazon Music and let me just say this speaker quality is a lot better in the first generation overall it’s pretty much the same thing but the big improvement is the sound not to mention the overall appearance of it is a lot better

    It's a good little speaker with extra functionality. I haven’t fully utilized its full potential yet, like ordering things for me on amazon but it's there if I need it.

    We purchased these to put in our kids’ bedrooms because they love listening to music when they are going to sleep. We also use it as an alarm clock for my oldest. They love asking “Alexa” what the weather is going to be like or for her to play their favorite songs.

    Echo dots in every room makes for hands-free life

    Who doesn’t need three or four echo dots around the house to make it more convenient to tell Alexa to turn on and off certain products. The price of this product couldn’t be beat considering we got it free with a purchase of an insignia TV during the 2021 holiday season. We have three echo dots along with a portal five. Being able to walk into many different rooms and tell Alexa to turn on or off certain devices makes it a lot easier than walking back into a hallway screaming for Alexa to turn something on or off. We have never noticed any interference or any problems with the echo dots . With the way that technology is with the smart devices it really is starting to spoil us but hey we love it!!!

    Second verse, same as the first… no hassle setup and use. Love to tell Alexa to play an entire album; sometimes just one song. This is my second dot, and I may need a third!

    Bought this as our 1st generation Echo won't control Sengled smart bulb we have. This Dot came with a Sengled bulb too. Sounds good and bulbs work well once the schedule was perfected in the Alexa App.

    This is a great gift for anyone who likes tech and wants info fast and at hand. Alexa works great and is extremely helpful. I still haven't used smart home bulbs or other tech but I plan to in the future and I'll rely on Alexa to give me a hand with everything.

    Works as expected. We use it to check the weather, play music, traffic report….I’m sure there are other things like ordering through Amazon, and such, but for us it’s a great and inexpensive product.

    Do not know where I would be without my Alexa devices. The echo is great and syncs well with my other devices. I love being able to ask the weather and get a great forcast of how the day will be. I use it all the time to set timers and more than 1 at a time. Set up is very easy to do. You need to download the alexa app to use. I also use it to announce things to every device in the whole house! So handy!

    Alexa is my new best friend

    Having the Echo Dot has become life-changing. Besides checking the daily weather, my favorite use is to listen to the radio all night from another city with crystal clear reception. Alexa has helped score me major points in settling family trivia arguments, and I'm really not sure how I could get along without her constant help and friendship. Unboxing and setup took about 5 minutes, including installation of the phone app. It couldn't have been easier, looks small and sleek on my nightstand, and is powerful enough to be heard clear across the house. It'll be fun to investigate all of the skills that are available.

    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.

    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.

    This was a bonus when buying a replacement TV. So I replaced my Google with Alexa. I like the fact that it links up with my Fire TVs and other devices pretty easy as well.

    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.
