The new Echo Spot is a cozy, stylish addition to my bedside setup. The compact design fits perfectly on a nightstand, and the customizable clock faces add a personal touch. The display is crisp and easy to read, even in low light, and the ambient glow is gentle enough for nighttime use. Alexa responds quickly and clearly, making it easy to set alarms, check the weather, or play sleep sounds with just a whisper. The speaker delivers surprisingly full sound for its size—ideal for podcasts, music, or morning news briefings. It’s become a key part of my nightly wind-down and morning wake-up rituals. Highly recommend for anyone looking to add smart functionality to their bedroom without sacrificing style or simplicity. Read more

This is a great device, the first time we’ve added to our Alexa collection around the house in years. It replaced a small digital clock on the counter in the master bath at the house… and what a difference! Much better clock, more elegant and easier to read, and the device provides the date, and capable of providing much more than that. But just out of the box, great! Unlike the clock it replaced, this does require an AC outlet, which we knew from what Amazon was showing in the description. But this is well worth giving up one outlet on the counter in the bath. Sound quality is good if not great for the size, and more than adequate to upgrade the master bath and open up music, news, timers, digital books we enjoy from audible (an Amazon company), etc. Super. Everything is hands free, which is great when your hands are wet in the bath or kitchen, etc. And setup really was a breeze, for users like us who already have Alexa devices in the house. Right out of the box, it found our WiFi (with an impossible password) and didn’t need any help from us hooking right up to our WiFi automatically and we were good to go! Finally, the price was right! These devices are priced very reasonably on Amazon, with no middle man, so to speak. Highly recommended. Enjoy! Read more

Looks great and works perfectly as a smart alarm clock. The display is crisp, Alexa responds quickly, and it fits nicely on a nightstand or desk. Sound quality is solid for its size. Read more

I was looking to replace a 2023 model Echo Show 5, since it was beginning to lag a little: after the Alexa+ update, the responses/notifications were arriving on the 2020 Echo about a half-second/second before arriving on the Echo Show 5 ...which was REALLY irritating. The 2024 Echo Spot perfectly fits the bill: compared to the Echo Show 5, the size is slightly smaller (which is fine), it still has a visual component for what's necessary (time/temperature/weather), the sound is just as good, and the hardware is faster/better; moreover, compared to the newer (and larger) Echo Shows, it's substantially smaller and less expensive, which is good. All things considered, it's the perfect solution for what I needed. Read more

I'm new to Alexa and got this so I can have this on my nightstand with time display and the temperature . Also play my music when cleaning my bedroom and changing the sheets. I've used Alexa to turn the heater up or down. Since I'm new to Alexa I know I'm not using it fully since I don't have smart things around the house, but it's a start. Setting it up was easy and I went through all of the Alexa app settings to get familiar with it. The voice control is nice with no issues. The sound for my music sounds great and has a 3 band equalizer in the app. The display shows your current weather with the temperature and clouds or rain or shine. Value for the price would depend on how much Alexa functions you use. But I like it all the same even as nightstand alarm clock with Alexa. Read more

This is a great alarm clock and was lucky that I found it on sale. It seems durable as I have knocked it off the nightstand accidentally and it still works. Connects very easily to Tidal and Apple Music. It's been very reliable as I haven't overslept since I have it set to wake me up to EDM music. Has good sound for a very small enclosure. This is a great item for the connected home in the 21st century. Read more
