    I’ve been very pleased with the capabilities of my echo device. I had an old echo tap that I upgraded and have been very pleased with the smaller size and capabilities. I’ve also noticed that the microphone does a better job of picking up and deciphering request to the unit, compared to my older device.

    This Amazon echo was the best thing I could have got. It reacts to time as Well recognize this my voice. Not to mention my son loves that it sings in. Turns on with everything else when he wakes up in the mornings when he goes to bed at night.

    My first Alexia, and not my last. This device is pretty good. The main use i have for it is turning on my different room lights and off again. I also use it as a speaker which gets pretty loud, Loud enough to fill up my enough house. (I live in a 4 bedroom house.)

    This little gadget is worth every penny. Technology has came along way since the 70s. Lol. My kids are always up on the lastest electronics. Me, that's another story. My kids have been telling me about the Echo dot for the longest. I finally bought one on sale and I love it. The music is awesome once you set it up. The speaker sounds really nice, I have no complaints.

    Good product. Allows me to communicate with the smart tv i purchased. Good addition to my home as it provides me all the information I need without having to get my phone. It's also small enough to be placed almost anywhere.

    Pros: - Free with the purchase of Ring peep hole cam. - Easy to setup & add apps. - LED lighting. - The ability to sync up with Ring peep cam. - The ability to sync up with another same unit in another room. - Does well with run down timers, weather forecasts & statuses on Amazon deliveries. Cons: - Speaker could use an option to adjust low, mid, high if desire. - has a delay when detecting & announcing a person at the door (could be the Ring). Instant when cam button is pushed. - can be unresponsive at times. * So far it’s working out for what needs it for. I can update my future experiences as I go.

    Came free with our insignia tv. Very surprised at how often it’s used by our young son, whenever he wants to listen to a song, head a joke, or even ask how hot it is he simply asks Alexa. Voice activated and tailored to the way he talks is a solid feature too.

    Got this as freebie after purchasing insignia tv. Dont have any plan on using it at first but got curious with it. Alexa is pretty intelligent and useful if you come to think of it and starting exploring things it can do for you like timers, reminders, weather forecast, etc. Can also add some skills by using the Alexa app.

    Having a echo dot is like having a talking dictionary. Don't know what I'd do without one.

    I love this! I can tell it to turn on and off my tv, turn up and down the tv’s volume, turn on and off my light, and I have it set up to tell me when my packages are delivered. Its very useful. It also has an app you can use to hook everything up to it.

    Was concerned with what the sound was going to be like coming from such a small speaker, but I’m impressed! I have it located on bar between living area and kitchen and it fills the entire apartment with sound. Of course if you’re expecting rumbling bass to rattle the walls then this probably isn’t gonna be it for you. But if you just enjoy the crystal clear sound of music then you won’t be disappointed.
