Does exactly what it says on the tin
We already have 1 echo in the house so setting up a second one was pretty easy. I literally switched it on, opened up my Alexa app and selected ‘add a new echo’. It found the new one within a matter of seconds and I didn’t even have to enter any WiFi passwords again- it’s just connected itself up straightaway. We were playing music within 5 mins of it coming out of the box. I will say though that the new one is a marked improvement on the old one. It’s bigger, looks better and sounds better too.

Brilliant little thing!
This was my first Echo Dot. Colour fits in well with my kitchen and doesn’t make it look obtrusive. Great speaker sound. Reacts very well to commands. Brilliant for just a digital radio if nothing Else! I’ve got my Wemo insight plugs working with it so that I can turn on/off lamps etc. Also use it to control EWeLink switches. Very impressed and useful, not just another ‘gadget’ that ends up on a draw not used. Would recommend. Click and collect from Argos was very easy and fast. Great service.

Dubious at first, but I was soon won over!
I’m a bit old fashioned, and I find technology too cumbersome these days however, upon receiving this as an unexpected Christmas gift, I have to say that I was quite impressed with how it functions as a speaker (to listen to my music) as well as asking the odd question or two to Alexa — for a digital companion, she doesn’t sound robotic and is surprisingly useful! For those who are a bit weary about these kind of things, I can attest to you that they’re not as bad as I envisioned them to be.

It’s nice and neat , the sound quality is great
This device is located down stairs, I also have an echo show 8 up stairs. My son and I use the device to communicate with one another, via drop. The sound quality is clear. Now I don’t shout across the house to get his attention, which used to annoy him. The device is also linked to a smart plug and ring system. I also use the device to set reminders and alarms. The sound quality is great! You can link the Device via blue tooth and play music of your choice. It’s powerful for something so small.

Pleasantly supprised
I’m 100% Apple in my house, MAC books, iPhones, iPads, Apple Watch’s etc etc .. I wanted a smart speaker but didn’t want to fork out Apple silly prices. Thought I’d give the dot and echo a go... Wow!! The sound that they produce from such small devices, I am truley amazed. Safe to say I went back and bought more. 2 echo’s and 6 dots as bought a couple for presents. My 3 year old daughter now knows how to use Alexa, she asks her to read her bed time stories and play music. Very happy.

Game changer
Bought 3 of these for 3 teens. I don’t like the children having phones in their bedrooms and we all forget to set alarms in the morning and have to wake them myself. I can now set an alarm Schedule.Gaining extra sleep. Genius! When dinners ready we can notify them rather than shouting up the stairs and wasting those vocal cords. Kids use it as a novelty to and always ask silly questions which has us in fits of laughter.They love playing their music on it to. Good quality. Perfect for our need

Great product
Great sound & companion especially for anyone partially sighted who needs to squint to read a clock, read the news, etc without their glasses on. If you have a few more pennies &/or are hard of hearing, I’d recommend looking at an Echo Show 8 first. Echo Show 8 links to Prime videos & gives the lyrics to music so you can sing along. It also provides subtitles to news, films & TV shows. Can Link to Amazon Music. Please note, they are not rechargeable and must be continually plugged into a socket.

After failing to get a dot on the high street. or from Amazon, I was pleased to find Argos had stocked in bulk for an urgent Xmas eve delivery! The dot is starting to fulfill the potential of a world of connected devices. Within minutes Alexa was talking to Sonos on a separate broadband, playing from Spotify. My second effort to get Alexa to call my wife on her mobile proved less successful - Alexa help made no sense, referring to settings that seemingly don’t exist. A glimpse of the future.

Decent music service, sound and speaker options
I wasn't sure whether to get an Echo Dot or Plus, and I am very happy with the sound quality from a small device. Setup was easy! And for a bigger sound we turn on a decent Bluetooth dock that we have and within seconds the Dot is using that instead. For even better sounds, we turn on our living room Hi-Fi’s Bluetooth - it just works. Also, you can get Amazon Music Unlimited for 3.99 p/m for one Echo making it great value over the usual services out there. Overall, very happy with the product.

Alexa's gotten louder and prouder
Having used the echo dot one for the last year, I decided to buy my parents a third generation dot, and they've loved it. For cooking, it's great to be hands free for managing timers and controlling music when your hands are full. It's synced with their iCloud calendar to check when they're busy and they love its shopping list. She's not without her flaws: she isn't very good at answering random questions (that could be googled) and she doesn't always hear you correctly, but she's pretty great.

Was their life before Alexa?
I resisted a smart speaker for a long time & was given one at Xmas. I was so impressed by the sound quality & functionality of my echo dot that I went & bought this one for my grown up daughter! Sound quality is superb, ease of use once set up is excellent. Occasional connectivity issues but then I do travel internationally with mine so it has to connect to lots of new hotspots. I dont do any shopping with it, just use it as a smart speaker. I have linked it to my spotify account which is great

Gives you simple ease of life
We have one in every room except the bathroom - we use them for cooking timers, reminders and have all our lights and gadgets connected. We Also have the echo plus in the living room. It’s so easy to be able to set timers for everything and if we are back late or on holiday we can turn our lights on or off etc. We use them for music and fact checking regularly. We have never had any connectivity issues with any of them and all work in the exact way intended. So far no issues with any of them.

Excellent, last minute xmas gift
Amazing, bought my children both one of these for Christmas, it was a spontaneous purchase but turned out to be one of their favourite presents. My children are 10 and 6 and both use it every day. It's easy to use and to set up. They both play music through it, I can contact them when dinner is ready (godsend for my son) as I've connected the alexa to his Xbox headsets and he can hear me straight away instead of me shouting numerous times. Exceeded my expectations, and now I really want one.

Great Add-on gadget
We also have the third-gen echo in normal size. This amazon dot is an excellent add on to it. It was a gift for my birthday and I was over the moon, our dot sits in our kitchen and is great for reading out recipies or playing music. One thing I would say is, if you want it for playing music I would personally go for the bigger version because it has a sub woofer and makes it much bassier. The dot has loud speakers however with no sub woofer installed , it’s not as good quality for bass lovers

Christmas Gift
Bought two as gifts and they have been very well received. One for an 11 year old the other for an adult. Feedback from both has been excellent and they were put into use immediately. You can build on these with all sorts of gadgets, plug sockets, light bulbs, external cameras, devices to lock/unlock doors, heating controls, smart tv etc etc. The range is extensive. For people who are disabled they could be a real boost to their daily lives, being able to do a lot of tasks with just your voice.

Versatile smart speaker
I purchased the Echo Dot with the sole objective of turning my old hifi into a smart-speaker via an Aux cable. This works above and beyond expectations. I no longer have to plug in my phone or laptop via Aux cable to listen to Spotify via my big speakers, I just ask Alexa to do it. I've even begun using additional features, such as asking Alexa to set an alarm, tell me a joke, or check the outside temperature before my morning walk. I've barely scratched the surface, but I'm already impressed.

Fantastic Personal Assistant
Bought this to replace my old one which I took to my office. Useful for all sorts of daily things such as listening to the radio, getting the weather forecast, listening to pod casts, getting information such as cinema listings, local events and travel reports, creating shopping and to-do lists. I'm only scratching the surface, there's loads more it can do. I can also communicate with my office so both I and my team can work while talking hands free. Can't wait to see what else it's capable of.

Great starter device
Amazon had run out of these.To be honest it was quicker than waiting for delivery and the guy on the counter was very helpful.I got this because my lodger keeps leaving everything on so i can turn them off without moving from bed { im disabled} It works flawlessly and very quickly. I haven't had chance to investigate its other functions but i listen to the radio a lot and the sound quality is excellent. I find the voice control very useful in running the house and i wouldn't be without it now.

Glad I brought this
After reviewing countless speakers online and viewing so many different options I chose to go ahead with the Alexa Dot. It’s a neat stylish compact speaker that looks the part (I chose it in white) The sound is good, but with a spacious lounge area and tiled floors the sound can come across rather tingy at times. For the price you can’t go wrong, if you want a speaker that can sound angelic on quiet nights in listening to tunes and then turn into a little monster when you want some volume.

Easy to set up
I had already bought an echo dot and loved it so decided to get another for upstairs. This is so easy to set up and connect to wi-fi, either primarily and even more so as a second one. It's a great gadget to play music through, ask questions (especially converting measurements for baking), playing games. I particularly love how it syncs with my google calendar and adds events on it. I'm sure there's more I haven't even found out about yet. I thoroughly recommend it, good fun and so so useful.
