Great product!
I purchased this primarily to set reminders for my elderly parents and to make it easier for them to access their favourite music. It was very easy for me to set up for them and it does the job very well. Alexa is extremely helpful and a good deal for the price. The one thing I would say is that if you're looking to connect to Spotify you do need to have Spotify premium, and once connected I had to unplug and plug the echo dot before it connected correctly. Otherwise fantastic product!

So nice I bought it twice
This product is honestly a fantastic life saver. I have one upstairs and one down. They're awesome for playing music that you have on amazon prime and I use the main one for radio and shopping lists. Ask alexa anything and she usually has an answer. Just make sure your the only one talking in the room when you give her sommands because she gets confused. Try not to have her to close to the TV as well as she'll here it. The games have kept us occupied too as well as the handy reminders!

Smart looking device
This is a great little device, very well designed has a right good sound for the size of it, music sounds nice, all in all a great little device that will do more than what you expect from it. Only down side with it that I find annoying is you have to keep the device plugged in but you can buy add ons like a battery base, but about £25. But I bought a wall mount, it's a mount you attach the echo dot to plug it into a socket, no visible wire & only £8 I got it for. RECOMEND ECHO DOT

Echo dot is fab
I bought the Echo dot as it was on offer and went back the next day and bought 2 more for the kids. My next step is to get some compatible light bulbs so I my disabled wife can control the room lights without getting up. Also an excellent feature is the shopping list. You can verbally add an item to the list as you notice you need it and them when you are out you can see the list within the app on your phone and once you've purchased it you can easily remove the item from your list.

Tiny device very loud
I got the Echo dot for my daughters 6th Birthday her school has one and she liked telling it to make poop noises.. sold me when she said she can listen to books too.. Easy to set up with my audiable. Its very easy to use and set up and for such a small device it’s very loud. My daughter likes listening to the radio to on their too so very handy. Thinking we may get another for the kitchen. Managed to get for sale price so very good value for money would definitely recommend.

Ready entertainment
The best thing about it is its a ready entertainer, no need to connect anything or choose anything manually, you thought of any song or news or info in your mind and just ask it to Alexa and start listening in a very good sound quality, moreover my little one loves it to order Alexa, though sometime she doesn't understand the command or start playing any other song but when she doesnt understand the command and says sorry my son laugh like anything saying she is saying sorry :D :D :D

Echo Dot well worth the cost
I got this through fast track and was in and out of the store in 2 minutes. Took about 5mins to set up and link to my music account. Sound is great using built in speakers and was very easy linking to my Bluetooth speakers. Me and my family use it daily and have fun finding out everything Alexa can do. I like it so much I am now going to get one for just about every room as well as looking for smart devices to connect to it i.e. light switches etc. Don't just think about it, buy one.

Echo Dot- Black
Bought as a little treat to myself. Really impressed at what this little thing can do! Found it really easy to set up and it and a good speaker on it. Volumes pretty good. Although sometimes the sound can go a bit 'tinny',which I would say is the only down point,I just tell Alexa to stop playing,wait a little while and play again and all's fine. I was surprised at how heavy it is given how small it is. I got this at a reduced price at the time but would still pay full price for it.

Excellent piece of kit
Excellent little device to transform your standard home into a smart home. We have purchase many compatible wall plugs which have all of our lamps plugged in to, this has made turning on and off the lighting for upstairs and down stairs easier and quicker. You can name each individual plug for turning on/off and then set a group of them into a category such as "downstairs" to turn off the whole area under one command. We have also adapted the hive system as well, worth the money!

Amazing!
I got this during the Black Friday Sale, so I got it half price which is amazing! It works so well and was so much easier to set up than I thought. I use it everyday now, a lot more than I expected myself! Matches the aesthetic of my room (black model). The audio is extremely good! Very loud for such a tiny speaker! I would 100% recommend this, there’s something so nice getting home, lying back, and just saying “Alexa, play happy vibes” and just chilling out. Great Product!!!!

Vast improvement
Purchased for 7 year old daughter's bedroom (she specifies to Alexa she wants the clean version of her chosen songs, which mostly filters out explicit content). As she already has an external speaker, with no voice assistant, I bought her the 3rd gen dot. The sound is actually a huge improvement, over the 2nd gen, for such a small speaker and overall, I'm completely satisfied with the product. I find Alexa to be reliable and the Amazon music service meets our needs, perfectly.

The brilliant Echo dot
We have these in every room including the kids. Brilliant apps for kids to practice times tables, spellings, setting routines. They actually love getting up with Alexa’s alarms and no more shouting up the stairs. We can put lighting where we want it because if doesn’t matter that we can’t reach the switch. Alexa can control heating, lighting, music, news and connects through the house with additional units. The dot is really small and unobtrusive and surprisingly good sound.

Qutie useful little dot
We were a bit against these things at home. It's all about privacy. But after all are we living in a private world any more ?. So we gave it a go and purchased two of these. One for the downstairs kitchen and one for the upstairs bedroom. They are really good fun. Playing music, acting as intercom, sounding alarms, working as a timer in the kitchen, playing news and weather, answering questions to name just a few. Really good small speaker with decent sound quality. Does the job.

Very good alternative to Google Home...
Bought three of these, as changed over from using Google Home. Must admit the sound quality on the Echo Dots aren't as good. I have two paired together, one at each end of the room, this means I don't have to have them on high volume to hear them. These are easier to pair and use than Google Home, which I had for over a year, shame about the drop in sound quality. I suppose if you want better sound quality, best to buy Amazon Echo Smart speaker, that must have a better sound.

Fantastic Product!
After buying the other similar device from the search engine brand, which I returned to store as it was very unresponsive I got the Amazon Alexa Echo Dot as a replacement. The Echo Dot is fantastic and great design. It is very responsive to ANYONE that talks to it, even visitors! The nice LED ring shows Alexa is responding properly. The sound quality is impressive for a small device and it can also be linked to another speaker via AUX or Bluetooth if needed. Great App too. Buy One!

Everyone needs one of these!
I now have 4 of these and recently got one for a friend. This 2nd version is far better than the original. The built in speaker has a much better tone (the original is a bit tinny sounding and ideally needs a separate speaker). There's so much info you can get from 'Alexa' and, if you have one in different rooms you can play your music across all of them - I can enjoy music all over the house! Can even tell you when your car's road tax and MOT is due! Brilliant piece of technology!

helpful assistant...
Got this for my brother after I found my one so useful to me, my brothers words.. "this is the best present I have had, i have been so down and depressed and everything has been such a chore, but now i am listening to music I forgot I loved, and things like the shopping list are just useful because my depression makes me forgetful, this is so brilliant, thank you bruv" I dont think i need to add anything else, there's all you need to know, my brother is happy, and it's been a while

New Amazon Echo Dot - White
Wow! So impressed. Alexa can turn my lights, heating, music and TV on. . She can give fun facts, tell you the weather, call friends /family, she even crack a joke. The list of her capabilities are endless. I love this so much I bought a second device. I placed my first one in the kitching and the second in my office, I have paired them and can use the multi room function. Can’t wait to keep finding all the amazing functions Alexa can do. The best thing is she is always learning.

Useful, easy to use and fun
Ok, so I'm not much of a techie, but I love this little beauty. Firstly the set up is real easy, download the app and follow the easy set up steps, link to your amazon prime account and hey presto, you're good to go. Tell her to play music and get the best sound from such a small unit. Get your news from your favourite source. Ask her to play a game and there are tons of fun options, from quizzes to RPG style games. All in all this is a fantastic bit of kit. Highly recommended!

Love my Dot
I have an Echo already, but wanted the Dot for my kitchen. It's brilliant. I can enjoy music without straining to hear the Echo situated in the lounge. I can link to play the same or individual if tv is being used. I have previously bought two of these for presents so if that isn't a recommendation, I don't know what is. They are the Best Buy I have made, and I wouldn't be without either. My son and family, and my daughter and family would agree and they are constantly in use.

Echo fab
I wasn’t sure about the sound quality, with it being the Echo dot but I definitely wasn’t disappointed, it’s great! Nice and loud so I can hear it while I’m in the kitchen washing up or cooking, it’s situated in my sitting room which is roughly 20ft from the kitchen. I love the sleek design, small and compact, sits nicely on my sky box. I did struggle a bit to set it up but I’m 55 and not that clever with instructions where you have to set any form of technology up.

If you can afford it, get the Echo
My family has two Echoes and one Dot. The Dot is ok but the microphone and speaker quality is a long way off the Echo. To illustrate this, the room with the Dot is at the other end of a hallway to a room with an Echo. When in the Dot room, the Echo can pick up instructions intended for the Dot which the Dot sometimes misses. Our Dot is in a room with a Sonos speaker and the functionality of Alexa is all good. However if you can afford it the Echo quality is worth the extra spend.

Love it!
I purchased this Amazon Dot for my grandaughters 12th birthday as she loves my Amazon Echo and wanted one for her bedroom to listen to music and help with her homework! The sound is great and does everything my Echo does. She enjoys the games and quizzes and her younger sister (5) also enjoys asking Alexa questions and playing guessing games too. The Alexa app also allows her parents to monitor what is being used for piece of mind. Really pleased with purchase & would recommend.

Fantastic purchase
I bought one of these for the person I care for who suffers from bipolar disorder. It's been a great purchase, it helps to remind him of simple daily things such as feeding the cats, taking medication, and the shopping list feature is very useful too. Instead of asking me for things all the time, he can instead ask Alexa which is great especially for when I am not around. Technology such as this would be brilliant for anyone who suffers from disability such as blindness.
