Customer Ratings & Reviews

Compatible with the most home automation products, responsive, and cheap! There is even an Alexa skill you can add to start your car in the morning (requires a more recent model Ford vehicle with Sync Connect). Highly recommend the echo/alexa eco-system if the primary purpose of a smart speaker is to make your home "smart" and convenient.

Easy to set up. Fits in nicely with any decor. I have it set up with a smart plug so I ask Alexa to turn on my light as I walk into the room & shut it when I walk out. Very convenient to ask questions I want answers to. Play music, get the weather. Awesome that I don’t need to look for my glasses & type into a device. I just use my voice.

Major improvements on sound from the original model. In addition, the updated design fits in with any room decor, in a very discreet way so that it’s hardly noticed but always ready when you need it. This is one of those cases where something good has become a whole lot better.

I love Alexa because she works well with all my other Amazon products and plays whatever specific song I request her to play. Also her ability to understand almost any phrase is impressive.

I love this little thing. Got it as a free gift for buying a new TV. I have the Echo Plus already and loved that, this one is super cute and perfect as an extra for the house.

This is a great speaker with voice recognition that allows you to ask questions and it will give you answers. You can also link it up to multiple devices to operate them. I have used the echoes for a while now and it has become a part of my routine at home.

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the low price encouraged me to purchase the echo dot. I absolutely love it for the convenience and overall good sound quality. It doesn’t fill a room with sound, but that was never my intention. Good sound, convenient and well connected to my Amazon account.

3rd gen Echo dot is well made. Feels solidly constructed. Works just like previous Echo dots but the speaker is improved with a richer sound. Aesthetically it is improved as well with a fabric band and the device itself being more rounded. I’m very happy with this Echo dot and highly recommend it!

great product. my second one, this third gen speaker much louder than the second gen ones. a little too much base in the sound, but found you can adjust that in the alexa app.- now it sounds great. i recomend these to everyone. great price too- got on special for $18, with a free smart bulb.

So if you are interested in begging your collection of Alexa compatible devices, the echo dot is great to start with. It is small, but has great sound quality. The setup is fairly easy on the app. Alexa has a plethora of functions. I use it often to play mind games and printing activities for my children.

took some getting use to but now I have 3. they are in a majority of my rooms. The one in the bedroom turns on the lamp and I can ask it to turn on the insignia fire tv. especially with "Alexa turn on tv and open Netflix." we are working with other command such as pausing the show. The one in the bathroom I mostly use to play music or ask "Alexa what time is it?"

Sound is excellent alexia listen and respond works as it should easy to set up

Great little device. After getting an echo show, I added this to my bedroom. There is good sound quality with the speaker. It is perfect. I really like the alarm feature and how I have it paired with a smart lightbulb that gradually brightens to wake you up. I bought one for my parents too.

I was surprised at how much I like this after having read a lot of news stories recently about these devices and privacy concerns. I like that you can mute this so that it's not listening when you don't want it to. I am very pleased with the sound quality - it has a nice, rich sound compared to the sound that comes directly from the iPad. I'm also getting used to dealing with Alexa. She does not always respond the way I need her to, even when I'm being super clear. But that might be user error that will be worked out over time.

For the size, I was expecting a lower quality audio but this small speaker is great. The volume and sound coming out of it is actually good. You do have to speak louder if you're at a high volume but there is nothing I would change.

My first smart speaker. Decided to go with Amazon Echo Dot 3G for the value & its compatibility w/ other smart devices & its price vs the more expensive brands, like Apple. I'm not disappointed and quickly added a 2nd Echo (Flex). I plan to get more since they work together seamlessly.

I love it. I have it in my craft room. Echo keeps me company while I'm doing my crafts. I have lights hooked up and a couple of other outlets. Very cool. I have it read my books to me while I'm working or play music. Even make phone calls. Hands free. Shipping was fast. I used some points and got it for very reasonable.

We now own 6 different Echo devices and I must say this one is pleasing! The sound quality exceeds that of the prior version and though not quite as good as the regular Echo it is still surprisingly clear and has good depth of tone. Such a quick setup as well, we had it hooked up and running in about 4 minutes.

We have one in the kitchen, bedroom and living room. We love playing music in the house, using them for light switches and being able to play music for the dog while we’re gone. We have a plug programmed to a light for our dog. So it turns on with a schedule we made since it gets dark before we get home at night.

I received the 3rd Gen Echo Dot as an add-on for another purchase. It's a great upgrade from the 2nd gen one that we had for a couple years now. The speakers have a tangible difference in the sound quality. The design also has come a long way too which seems to place the focus more on the speakers.
