    Difficult Technology Made Simplistic Through Alexa

    Wonderful product. Bought for my grandma to connect her robot vacuum to so she would easily be able to operate it instead of having to deal with technology. She loves being able to just tell Alexa to run her vacuum and not have to deal with a cell phone or vacuum directly.

    These little smart speakers are amazing. The sound quality is impressive given its small footprint. We have these smart speakers in almost every room in the house whether the original cylinder type or the echo and echo dot. They great to use as an intercom or to place calls which is handy since my wife is handicapped with limited mobility. I know that she can always reach me if she has a problem. This echo dot was an upgrade from the previous version which can now tell you the temperature of the room that it is placed in. For the price, especially when they are on sale you can't go wrong.

    This was a replacement for two that we had and died. Upon setup, it would only "listen" when I tapped the alert button on top. It picked up some of the settings from the earlier versions. Then it started working about a week later as I was planning on returning it. Now it keeps defaulting back to the low volume of 3 where it is barely audible. Since it's so close after Christmas, I may be able to return it. I would only recommend the Echo under very guarded circumstances and warn to keep the receipt.

    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.

    This little Echo Dot has made my life a bit easier. I added a few smart plugs and use this little dot to turn on my lights, turn out my lights, play music, give me the weather and alert me of impending bad weather. Basic, when it can do so much more, but a great asset to making my life more efficient. I appreciate!

    Overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase and recommend it to those looking for an easy-to-use voice assistant with good sound quality. However, it's important to keep in mind the limitations and consider whether it's the right product for your needs.
