Good sound for small device that takes up little space. Easy to use for music, etc

the new 3rd generation echo dot is very good. easy to set up . better sound and better styling.

We got this as a free gift to go with the ring doorbell pro. We never thought we would like this so much. We already had wifi light bulbs and a wall plug and was able to integrate it with the dot. I liked it so much we now have this one in the bedroom, a dot in the basement and i bought an echo plus for the upstairs. the plus it very good sounding. I have all my music,lights and tv controlled by alexa!! all by voice!!

This is a great first step to getting used to Alexa. Great speaker for listening to music in a smaller room. Loud enough to hear if you ask her a question. Easy to use and hook up.

Purchased our second Alexa Dot (3rd generation) to work in conjunction with the first Alexa Dot (3rd generation) purchased a month or two prior. Also to work with our Amazon Smart Plugs, Amazon Cloud Cams, and iPhone and iPhone Alexa apps. Easy to set up and easy to use. Purchased the first Alexa Dot via Amazon directly. Purchased the second Alexa Dot from Best Buy, same day ordering, same day pickup, same pricing.

I had the 2nd generation echo dot and I was not impressed at all it done what it supposed to do but the sound was absolutely horrible and not loud at all. So I decided to buy the 3rd generation and right out of the box I was very impressed. It was much bigger and heavier. The sound is amazing and very loud (4 times as loud as 2nd gen). Looks so much better also. Definitely will be buying a few more.

I bought 2 of these on sale to mainly use as an intercom in my house. I have even used it to call home when I can’t get through on my home phone. It does a lot more than this, but that is how I mainly use it. My kids love playing with it, asking Alexa questions or playing music on it. For it’s size it puts out decent sound. Also, it is aesthetically pleasing, but you do have to place it near an outlet for power.

Great design, easy to set up and very easy to use. Speaker sound is really good.

I purchased the 1st generation of the echo dot and have been relatively happy with it. I really like what they have done with the 3rd generation. It looks nice and blends in better with a home. The rounded shape is also more pleasing visually than the first 2 versions. Our house isn't very big but we have 4 echos stationed throughout. The echo dot as a standalone unit works great in the bathrooms at home.

great product; good sounding, compact size, ease of use, and you get to talk to Alexa.

The best way to get the news, weather, time, and whatever else you need!!! This device is very strong, and mostly it’s solid as a helpful unit in anyway you'd like to set it to be! I have it turn on my lights, and play my favorite tracks and the best thing about it is that it connects to my bugger speakers that way I hear it all over my place! Amazing! Alexa rocks the Google home by much. Very much.

Product is small , easy to find a place for it. She is knowledgeable and therefore very helpful. Starts my day with a fun fact which are interesting and weather conditions. Voice activates promptly and starts commands immediately. Sound and volume are good and covers a big range. I’m very happy with this product and so is everyone else in my household

Good sound, easy to set up and use. Small enough to fit anywhere.

I received this as a free promotional item when I purchased a Fire TV. This is my second introduction to Amazon's Alexa integration products. It's great for controlling the new TV by voice (although the included remote with the TV also allowed this feature) Easy setup and took some reading of the manual with the Fire TV to figure out the integration. I can't say I would put this in every room of the house but an interesting addition to the TV. I was disappointed that the Fire TV I purchased would not integrate the sound very effectively. There is a WiFi option but the TV or the Dot would not support the connection regarding audio setup with the TV. My only audio connection with the Fire TV was via Bluetooth and for some reason the audio on the Dot was very low. So low that it was not usable for that purpose and I removed the Bluetooth pairing. Not sure what would need to take place to ensure WiFi audio pairing with a Fire TV but otherwise OK.

I purchased this item to work with my Directv satellite box. Was easy to set up and find skill for Directv. Sets timers records , fast forward, pause and rewind by asking Alexa . Works great.

So I got this Amazon echo when I purchase a Ring set doorbell it came in the package free I try to use that and I lighted I never thought I would purchase one but now seeing how this works and see all the possibilities that you could do with this echo I am planning to purchase more throughout the house and give as gifts very cheap reliable easy to use easy to set up this product is very good

Got it for free with my insignia tv purchase. Learning to control the tv with it. The best part of it is I programmed it to wake me up in the morning and can’t do it without it now! My iPhone yelled at me. Alexa is so sweet! Use it to pay relaxing songs to go to sleep! Love it

Purchased for myself as well as gifts for relatives. Very easy to setup and use. Sound quality is pretty decent from a small, inexpensive speaker. Got one for my mother as well as my in-laws who are not technologically-savvy and they are having a blast talking to their new friend, Alexa. I just made sure to turn off "Voice Purchasing" for now to avoid any unexpected surprises!

I love the echo dot. I have 3 & I bought this one for a friend. She loves it as well. Nice compact design with powerful sound. The sound is also clear. There’s so much you can do with it. Make shopping lists, play music, let Alexa read you a book and she also tells funny jokes. This little thing exceeded my expectations. Grab yours now.

It was a bit difficult to setup with my Audible account at first, until I got ahold of Amazon tech support and they let me know that my device needed to update. Since then, everything has worked perfectly! Great for a quick search-term when I don't feel like pulling out my phone, or for when I just want to listen to music and not have to search for it.
