    This Echo Dot works very well. It is easy to set up using the Alexa app and picks up the wifi signal very well. I replaced a 1st generation Amazon Echo with this because it wouldn't pick up the new signal. This Echo Dot has very good sound for a small speaker and is a lot easier to control.

    I have both Echo Dot and Google. homrm Both are good at looking up info, telling you the time, or playing a game. But this Echo Dot wins for two reasons. I the the sound is better and it was much easier to set up. The downside is the notifications Alexa tells me about which are nothing but Amazon ads for stuff it thinks I want. That's really annoying!

    I’ve had Alexa for a while now, and it still works perfectly! It responds quickly, understands my commands, and makes daily tasks so much easier. From playing music to setting reminders, it hasn’t missed a beat. Super reliable and definitely worth it

    I've been a die-hard Google Home fan, but recently my Google's speaker has been sounding pretty iffy. SovI decided to switch teams and got 3 Echo Dots, one in each color. I'm impressed with the sound, even as compared to my non-broken Google drvices. They respond quickly and accurately, but I'm annoyed with the "notifications" of things Alexa thinks I should buy.

    Amazon Smart Speaker Better than Google!

    The AMAZON ECHO DOT "Alexa" SMART SPEAKER is somewhat better than the Google Home Mini Speaker in sound quality and in responses given. I tested three of each brand placed throughout my house for 6 months, and I prefer the AMAZON ECHO DOT "Alexa" speaker for SOUND QUALITY and for it's emergency calling feature which not only CALLS the designated person but also sends them a TEXT MESSAGE which the Google Speaker does not do.

    This was an office grab bag purchase and my coworker loves it! She uses it at home and at the workplace. I’m quite impressed on how easily well acquainted she got with the item in terms of command and functionality (English is not her first language).

    Wasn't really sure what this was but after I bought a washer, best buy gave me $100 gift card. My wife bought this. We use it all the time for information, alarms, reminders, and music, My 86 year old MIL was fascinated by it. We went back and bought her one as well. They only cost about $50. She is really enjoying it and usees it for a host of things. 2 happy customers. Every household should have one.

    Great sound quality from such a little speaker. I have 4 throughout the home, including our shed. All synced together, so I have music as I go from room to room, or I can select the individual room. Also connected to our ring cameras, with notifications announcement on each one. Nonetheless , I am very happy with them.
