    There is not a lot to say that hasn't been said about the Alexa Dot but I too am a big fan. I use it for an alarm, music and to control various smart home features. The 3rd generation seems to understand better than past generations and the overall sound quality seems better to me as well.

    All of the Echo products are really slick and Amazon did a GREAT job in designing them and making them super easy to use. For the price, this little device cannot be beat. Go ahead and pick one up and then simply enjoy it. It is very powerful in sound and capabilities for its size.

    These little devices are amazing. I have several placed around the house. The sound quality is good for their small footprint. You can use this device with a smart plug to turn lights or small appliances off and on with just a voice command.

    The Echo Dot (3rd Gen) works great. We are able to listen to music, turn on lights with smart bulbs and drop in on other Dots in different rooms to announce meals are ready, etc. It is small so doesn't take up much room, but it has great sound. We purchased two dots on sale.

    I purchased this to go in my sister's room. We basically use it to control her smart bulbs and other smart devices in the house. It works great. Combine it with a wall mount and it is completely out of the way. It works great with our other smart devices as expected.

    The echo dot has been a really awesome purchase for us. At first I didn’t want to buy it, but my son said it would be good to have and he was right. We can ask Alexa any question and she gives us the answer. I can drop into our sons room and talk to him from our room.

    I see this as the start to my new smarthome - the cameras, the plugs, the lights, it's all coming together and this little gem is the centerpiece = so easy to use, easy to integrate, easy to look at... also, even if it's just used as a speaker - sounds great - 5 stars all day - but.... I wish it could turn off my tv...

    Connects with all of my alexa devices and echo show. I can communicate with my daughters using the device like a home intercom. Music sounds great, the device looks great, and using these school dots as one whole system I can play music on all my echo dots at once making it a pretty good in home sound system.

    I bought two of these to get with the ring alarm system. Easy to pair works like they are supposed to, I bought the black for our bedroom it blends with the dresser and you can barely notice it’s there. I would recommend. It came well packaged and I like that I can tell Alexa to arm or disarm the security system.

    These are great. Sound quality is great for this being simply a point of contact with Alexa. It is good enough to enjoy audio books and even for music as well when you are doing something else and just want to hear some music like when in the bathroom or doing the dishes for example. If you want are wanting to listen to music for music itself, this will even get the job done well but this is not really meant to listen to music as when you put music to sit and listen to music. When you want to do this, then you are naturally going to want to use your stereo system with its big speakers instead or your can buy the bigger Echo speaker unit. The other option you have is that you can plug the Audio out on the Echo Dot into your stereo system and get the big sound of your stereo system and speakers but the convenience using Alexa to provide you with the music you want to find and listen to and as well your audio books, news etc.

    Perfect size for my sons room. It allows him to listen to the music he wants. We also use it for an alarm and of course to answer the millions of random questions he has. Best impulse buy ever.

    The Echo Dot is amazing. Sounds great and had lots of features and settings. We mainly use it for the music but also have a lot of lights on it. That is a nice feature. We use the timer a lot and the alarm to wake us up when necessary.

    I already owned 2 google homes but after hearing Alexa has a drop in feature which is an intercom system from device to device we bought 4 of these for Christmas so everyone had one in their rooms. Also I like that you can play any song you want whereas google can’t do that it plays only stations not specific songs.

    I love Alexa. She is very easy to talk to and the speakers are actually pretty good for such a small device. You have a plethora of settings and options you can change through the Alexa app. It is also cool how you can send announcements through different rooms.

    Got this as a bonus for buying another product. I’ve been able to connect it to other devices in my home. My favorite is the wall plugs. I can ask Alexa to turn on/off my appliances connected to my smart plugs. Super convenient for hard to get to places, like corner lamps and Christmas trees. Very happy for the gift!

    3.5 Stars. Sounds good, but inconsistent.

    I have the Gen1 dot also and compared to that, the Gen2 sounds MUCH better! Unfortunately, it isn't very consistent in hearing us. When we first set it up, it worked great. Maybe an update screwed something up, but a few months after first setup, it wouldn't hear us fairly often. As a speaker, it sounds pretty good. Bass is the biggest improvement, along with considerably more volume. At Max volume it does distort slightly, but back off the volume a touch and it'll clean up. Gets plenty loud while still clean.
