I was skeptical about getting Alexa. Because I have Google in my home. But It was absolutely the best thing I ever purchased. I love the voice on it that talks to you and answers questions. It also shows the date and the time and temperature outside. You can just tell it to set an alarm and it does and then it says something like have a good night sleep it’s small it fits right on my nightstand perfectly I’m ready to switch everything over to Alexa. I highly recommend this.

We own several Amazon Dots, so we bought the new Spot at BB's Black Friday half-price sale to see how it compared (retails at $80 vs the Dot's $40-$50 price).
We enjoy the skills and convenience of the Dots, so we compared features. We think the Spot's premium sound is comparable to the 5th generation Dot (which we prefer, actually).
The face of the Spot is ok, but for some of us, it's a little difficult to read the time & weather in the morning without glasses. There are option widgets available but none that I find solve the problem. Either the time is large and the weather too small, or the opposite. When Alexa tells you the weather, however, the display enlarges.
In any case, we believe that Amazon's Dots & Spots are fantastic little personal assistants streaming with entertainment!

My boys use it for the alarm to get up for school, and it is diversity mixes with personal desired outcome options. It comes in several different colors to choose from with many options for the alarms or display features. We have a Nintendo account that synchronizes different sounds as an alarm feature from many popular Nintendo games that my boys play. It's much easier to hear that sound in the morning for us adults too. It knows when my sons get out of bed and will shut off the alarm on its own. It's really awesome.

The new Echo Spot is terrific! It is small enough so it doesn’t take up much space. Yet … it is packed with a lot of all the great features of the larger devices. To be able to see the time during the night is probably one of its best features, My other Echo Shows dim the screen so that the time is difficult to see at night. And this Echo does not have any of those annoying ads popping up all the time!

I have several Dots and upgraded to this one. Sound is great and the screen provides me with seeing timers, important for cooking. Would highly recommend for your smart home.

This is a very handy and great performing gadget. It doesn't take up space. It responds quickly and displays the time date and weather. It works well with the other Alexa products I have. I keep it on my desk. Speaker works well enough and it really is what I needed.

It really bright and you are able to select colors to display weather. It has night time display, very loud and clear! I love the minimal but still ask the Alexa commands! I did this review with NO compensation or promise. I just love Alexa products!

I really love this echo spot. It does all that Alexa is supposed to do and yet it looks good on my night stand. I bought the blue one and I really like the color. I own several of the original dots so when I seen this echo spot I said why not.

This display is very clear, sound is great. After seeing the one that I purchased, my parents also bought one and really like it. I keep mine in the kitchen, perfect for setting timers and adding items to my grocery list on the fly.
