I use this in the baby's room for white noise at night and kid songs any other time. Oct 18, 2019

Our favorite use for our echo dot is listening to music. The sound is great! Sep 25, 2019

I dont like anything where the government can submit subpoenas to listen into what goes on inside my home. These are dangerous and to much private information can get out. Sep 22, 2019
- Monique U.
Fontana, California
I Love this! The convenience of asking Alexa to play lullaby’s while I’m tending to my daughter has been worth the purchase alone! The dot is a great purchase for so many hands free capabilities! Aug 14, 2019
- Megan V.
Fort Myers, Florida
Works great, no issues, we just don't use it very much. Like using for checking the weather, setting reminders, and setting a timer. Aug 08, 2019

Love having a smart home controlled through multiple dots: have smart lights, plugs, and baby monitor controlled through alexa Aug 04, 2019

We love Alexa! My kids love asking her to play songs, and tell us the days weather. I love listenings to music, and podcasts, and using it to make my grocery list. Jul 26, 2019

I love that I can just ask any question and get an answer. Jul 16, 2019

Didn’t work well and served little purpose in our home. Enjoyed music played occasionally. Jul 14, 2019

The Echo is great. we have one in every room and you can actually drop in to other rooms and talk to each other. Like a whole house intercom Jul 12, 2019

Sound quality isn't too great but its perfect for using smart home functions Jul 12, 2019

I thought I loved this but turns out I find it weird knowing someone might be listening in on my ridiculous conversations with my kids and husband. Disconnected Jul 11, 2019

Makes life a little more easier and a little more fun. I love playing games or music through the echo while in my kitchen. My next step is to get sync the unit to our lights for handsfree technology. Jul 01, 2019
- Destiny B.

Love my echo dot! Does everything from play music loud enough for it travel throughout the house to set timers and alarms or simply just answer questions like Siri does. Jun 19, 2019
- Cameron B.

We have the Alexa but not yet the dot. We use non stop when cooking or playing music to entertain. So easy and helpful, a must have in the kitchen! Jun 17, 2019
- Carmen S.

I got this for free, so the regret can't be that high, but did not find it very useful. Pairing it with other devices in my house was not particularly seamless. Jun 03, 2019
- Jennifer R.

You don't have one yet? :) I like that I can play songs quickly. It has other great features: timer, weather, news updates. My family like to use to prove they are right by asking it question. Fun! May 22, 2019
- Amy M.
Dover, Pennsylvania
I do like this a lot. I love how many things this integrates with so many different things. My 4 year old has figured out how to tell Alexa to play her favorite shows. Super easy to use. May 20, 2019

I have an echo and I think it can be helpful with timers and asking the weather, but I'm a little weirded out that it will all of a sudden light up w/o being prompted and I assume listen to my convo. Mar 07, 2019

When baby girl was sleeping in our room we used this to play white noise. The speaker on it isn’t big enough to use it in her room. Feb 23, 2019

We got this as a Christmas gift and love it so far! We set it up in our living room and installed smart plugs for lights, so we can turn it on/off easily. Hoping it comes in handy when LO arrives! Jan 05, 2019

So functional when you always have your hands full! We use our dot to log baby's feedings, changes, and sleeping. It also makes a great sound machine! Sep 10, 2019
- Amy G.
Asheboro , North Carolina
We have one of these in each of the kids rooms and a newer one in our living room. These can work as intercoms! “Alexa call the girl’s room” so much better than yelling. Great for music as well! Aug 19, 2019

Fun gadget, but absolutely needs child restriction on or inappropriate content will come out... kid mumbling never ends with rainbows and sunshine. Jun 22, 2019
- Nekoda M.

This has been great when my hands are busy with baby. You can tell it to play music for soothing whitenoise, order off amazon, or ask random questions. Super helpful! May 28, 2019
- Nicole S.

We have this in our playroom for the kids to listen to music while they play! We love how little it is so it can fit anywhere but it still has a big sound! May 09, 2019

Great for playing music to dance with my little one :) Also great to add items to my shopping list while holding a squirming 9 month old! Jan 19, 2018
- Jessica A.

We love having dance parties in our house. The Echo allows us to rock out and let loose at any moment. Also, the convenience of just asking what the weather will be to get my daughter dresses is nice Sep 13, 2017
- Manjiree J.
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Great to stream nursery rhymes for baby. Love that it's turned on with voice command since my hands are always full with baby. May become prob once baby learns to turn it on herself, but great for now Aug 18, 2017
- Chrissy S.
Greenwich, Connecticut
Great cheaper option to the Echo for kids' rooms. feeling that they "control" their own music at bedtime is great! Aug 15, 2017

Love the new drop in feature to use as an intercom. We play soothing playlists and sleep sounds Jul 16, 2017
