Review: Great First Smart Speaker Purchase – Love My Echo Dot - First time buying the desertcart Echo Dot and I’m genuinely impressed. It was easy to set up, looks sleek, and fits perfectly anywhere in the room. For such a small device, the sound quality is surprisingly good—clear and loud enough for music, podcasts, or radio. desertcart Alexa makes everyday things so much easier. I can ask for the weather, set alarms, play songs, or get quick answers without touching my phone. It feels very modern and convenient, especially as a first smart speaker purchase. Overall, I’m really happy with it and think it’s a great first buy. Definitely worth it if you want something useful, simple, and fun to use.
Review: I love these Echo devices - I have history with the desertcart Echo speaker. The tall white series one that stands on my bedside table dates back to August 2017 and is still in daily use and works perfectly. Its ability to capture a weak WiFi signal is still unsurpassed, in my experience. I have latterly gone through skipping some of the iterations but have always been delighted with the practicality, voice assistance and sound quality of the speakers I have invested in. So, on to this newest generation Echo dot. I have 1st and 2nd gen units knocking about or loaned out with my Daughters. The first thing that strikes me about all of the latest speakers and speakers with screens is how easy it is to set them up. I have an desertcart account and I have set up these speakers before but it is really, for me, very easy indeed. Once switched on and recognised by the app the set up mostly goes off an does itself. It is wise to watch it all through but there were really not issues at all. It even stores and uses your WiFi credentials for you. So no need to enter complicated codes or indeed find/remember the code in the first place. I was interested in the sound quality and the ability to act as an Eero mesh network extender. I brought a special bundle comprising two Echo dots and a Tapo bulb, I then added a second bulb to the order. Incidentally, the bulbs are a great buy two and equally simple to set up, if you already use the Tapo app. These speakers are quite small at about 4" round. They still produce a really good performance for their size and I was also able to try, my two, as a stereo pair. For their cost there is little to complain about with their sound quality. They easily beat an old JBL Go 2 that I have, for bass, spaciousness and clarity while they are not far off the quality of a pair of UE Boom 2 speakers, again paired in stereo. They would have set me back around £150 for the pair of them. They seem to pick up commands well enough and respond quickly. They cope slightly less well with weak WiFi than my old Series 1 but I have good , fast coverage and didn't find I had many drop outs or issues. They work well as mesh extenders, I say they but so far I have only needed to set one up in this configuration. It is in our guest bedroom and just ensures that all visitors have good coverage. This for me is a much more socket friendly way to provide Alexa, a smart speaker and a wider mesh network. I am a big fan of desertcart speakers, is it that obvious! My advise would be buy one now, while you still can. They are great value for money and paired up do a great job as a compact sounds streaming system. Just add desertcart music. Although, please leave a few for me. In case I need any more. They are currently, simply a great buy that is very easy to recommend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it compatible with ggmm battery base?**
A: Not sure about ggmm  but Amazon do offer in accessories a battery base for £39.99 ,,

**Q: Would recommend a compatible battery base?**
A: I have bought a battery base as I have an upstairs landing area without a plug socket near to something I can sit the device on. A bluetooth speaker would not provide Alexa’s facilities

**Q: do you get left-right channel separation with 2 echo dots   ?? Thanks**
A: Hi there,
Yes you first need to stereo pair them in the Alexa app, groups, combine speakers. In the setup it allows you to select which one of the Echo Dots is the right and left channel.

**Q: Can i play dab radio stations on this device?**
A: This is not a radio receiver, it has no aerial.  Therefore it cannot actually receive AM,FM or DAB transmissions.  However it can play internet radio stations, which means you can listen to just about any radio station in the world. Virtually every station which broadcasts DAB is available via the internet.  So it is far better than DAB and is not reliant on getting a good radio signal.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant box, good value
*by R***H on 4 April 2026*

Absolutely amazing, bought it to replace a bedside radio. Much better than the radio and does so much more. I have since bought smart lightbulbs for my flat and can voice activate them through Alexa. The device is tiny, yet the sound is really good. It has a temperature sensor in it which I find really useful. I can easily see myself buying more of this range.
