    like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, ruclips.net/user/postUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....

    *I like the old style Echo Dot because it's small also **Newest.Technology**, gives out decent sound and doesn't take up a lot of shelf space if you want to put it on beam in the workshop or shed.*

    Thanks for a great review Chris. I just ordered the Amazon dot 3 from eBay for $29. My first one. I bought 2 smart plugs a few months ago. Now I can see how this all works. I had a Sprint lg Q8 thin, with Alexa, but had no clue that I needed to download the Alexa app. Obviously why I couldn't connect with my smart plugs. My dot 3 will arrive on 8/2/19. Now I have an idea of what to do. Very nice home you have, thanks again, Cheer's from Michigan ! Liked and subscribed 👍

    Do you need some kind of device connected to your source power (foreplave, xmas lights etc) to operate? do you pay a monthly subscription subscription to use the Amazon Echo Dot? My Sirius satellite radio subscription is trying to give me one for free what's the catch? is there a hidden cost somewhere?

    This is a great video! Although at certain points when you asked your Alexa to do something, my poor Alexa Show did or tried to do the same thing. 😅
    I had to keep turning the volume down to tell her it was okay or to stop!
    Then I just turned her microphone button off so she wouldn’t keep getting confused.
    It’s been years but I hope you had wonderful holidays, and that you have and will continue to do so.
    These videos are so oddly comforting, and I dug this up when I fade a friend a new Echo Dot 3 (they’re still great!) and she wanted to know how to set it up, etc.
    Thanks for helping my friend! And many others, I’m sure. :)
