5.0 out of 5 stars I couldn't be happier with my purchase.
Reviewed in the United States on February 29, 2024
I recently purchased a Certified Refurbished Echo Dot (5th Gen, 2022 release) and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. The device looks and functions like new, and at a fraction of the cost of a brand new one.

The sound quality of this Echo Dot is impressive, with bigger and more vibrant sound than previous models. I love using it to play music, listen to podcasts, and even make hands-free calls. The sound is clear and crisp, and fills the room with ease.

One of my favorite features of this Echo Dot is the helpful routines it offers. I can easily set up routines to automate my daily tasks, such as turning on lights, adjusting the thermostat, and even brewing my morning coffee. It has made my life so much easier and more efficient.

Overall, I highly recommend the Certified Refurbished Echo Dot (5th Gen, 2022 release) to anyone looking for a high-quality smart speaker at a great price. The sound quality, helpful routines, and overall functionality make it a fantastic addition to any home.

5.0 out of 5 stars Does The Job, Alexa Can Be Glitchy
Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2023
These work well but Alexa can be a little glitchy and doesn't do everything Google does and Google can't do some of the things that Alexa does.

Alexa does hane some problems understanding some similar sounding words like pole, hole and whole.

"Turn off the pole lamp" turned into "turn off the whole lamp" and Alexa shut off every lamp as an example.

Alexa has issues with custom light colors.

Alexa has issues with thermometers If you have a greenhouse or need to track humidity for health reasons. Google will tell you the humidity of a Wi-Fi or Bluetooth smart thermometer, Alexa says she can't do that yet.

Alexa also cannot tell you the heat index or wind chill factor.

I use Google on my phone to perform some tasks that Alexa cannot perform or gets buggy with.

Here's why I went with Amazon speakers.

Where I live, we have brownouts in the summer, it rains all the time and we have the occasional blackout.

EVEN THOUGH my Google speakers were on surge suppressors, 3 speakers were damaged!

Google suggests that you put their speakers on a surge suppressing UPS (a surge suppressor with battery backup) for EACH GOOGLE DEVICE!

Google said the sudden loss of power is like yanking the battery out of a phone and can damage the firmware of the speaker and brick it, meaning the speaker can still be damaged even if it's on a surge suppressor.

These seem to have a better build quality but I still put each speaker on a smart plug to be safe so I can remotely kill the power if needed.

Update: internet went out today, the speakers when they reacquired the network we're very sluggish, used the smart plugs to reboot all the speakers instead of unplugging them and plugging them back in one by one.

I never thought I would enjoy anything so much. I love my Alexa. I bought the refurbished one just because I wasn’t sure I would like it. The best sound. Easy to install and great sound.

4.0 out of 5 stars Get one! Just not refurbished
Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2024
Bear with me here. I have bought 3 different refurbished products off Amazon. 1 a vacuum I am extremely happy with. Number 3 a coffee maker did not work at all. #2 is this Alexa dot. I love the features of this product. I bought some smart plugs to use with it, great things. It will keep a grocery list, to do list, tell me interesting facts. But this product, the dot, is still defective. It will shut off in the middle of responding to me...no reason, it just quits. I love the are you smarter than a 5th grader game you can play for free, but right in the middle of the game it will just quit....very frustrating, especially if you are winning. I didn't get it set up in time and know it still had issues despite being "refurbished" in time to return it, so I am stuck. If you are thinking about getting one, I say get one, they are a lot of fun, and useful. Not recommended to get any refurbished products though, my confidence in their refurbished items is now at zero. Otherwise would have given 5 stars

5.0 out of 5 stars snd echo dot
Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2024
I wasn’t planning to get this. I have an older one in my kitchen, but have summer guests and the one in the kitchen got moved. I couldn’t find it and bought this one to keep up in our bedroom. I found the one in the kitchen and it seemed a little iffy to work but eventually it worked. I do like having this new one in the bedroom. It probably does more than I use it for, but I am finding technology to become more and more complicated and I am getting more and more older. However, I am glad I got it and I did so because it was onsale and the price was VERY GOOD. I looked at others like this and they were more costly so for me it was a good buy!
