    Kudos to Best Buy

    This review is not so much about the Dot because there are thousands of those to filter through. Clearly Amazon is phasing this version out because you’re limited to one color and no option for the one with the clock. That being said Amazon is offering this dot with a lightbulb on their site for the same price but with quite a delay in delivery. But not to be outdone Best Buy is offering the same deal plus 4 months Sirius XM! And you can pickup in 1 hour! How can you pass that up? You can’t. So if you’re in the market for one, buy now before they’re all gone! $19.99 plus free bulb and Sirius XM.

    These things are so cheap now, that I couldn't stop at just one. They are like a gateway drug to home automation. I have both the 2nd gen and 3rd gen, and the 3rd gen is far superior in terms of sound quality on its own.

    My daughter bought one and suggested that we should get one as well. I was kind of skeptic at first, but after it was up and running, my wife and I enjoy the weather and traffic updates along with listening to the music.

    Bought three for gifts for the holidays. Great tool and toy. Gave one to our six year old and she uses it for music, stories, checking the weather and asking questions. Sound quality is excellent in the 3rd generation.

    I have always wanted an Alexa, this speaker was pretty loud for its size and easy to use. I definitely will purchase a bigger Alexa for the living room.

    The speaker sounds much clearer than the earlier version. Unfortunately, my cat seems to really have a taste for the cord. So, on my third cord I decided to wrap it in fabric and that seems to have done the trick.

    Not going to lie she is creepy at times almost like she is possessed. I have literally woken up to her little light shining like she is listening to me sleep. Otherwise alexa is great for games or music

    I think these are great. Added to the bedrooms and the family uses them. Even my wife uses it to call for dinner or check on what is happening in a room. The are great for little facts but can not answer all the questions.

    Saved the day

    This came free with my purchase of a FireTV. When I initially got it, I had no idea what I was actually going to do with it. I live in an apartment complex and use wireless headphones for everything. I don't have a smart home and I was certain it would go to waste. Boy was I wrong. I cracked my phone screen last week and haven't found a replacement device yet. I used my phone as an alarm clock and now I use my Echo Dot. She can get 3-4 times louder than a phone so I don't actually sleep through my alarm any more. Another advantage is I can now stream my music through it instead of my computer. Since I use my computers to take calls from work, this has been a life saver.
