Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the Echo Dot (2nd generation)'s ease of use, sound quality, and small size, frequently praising its affordability and Bluetooth connectivity. While some users found the setup a bit challenging and noted occasional issues with Alexa's responsiveness or volume, the positive feedback on its core features outweighs these concerns. Many appreciate its use as an alarm clock and its integration with smart home devices.

    We use this for everything from maintaining grocery lists to telling jokes to giving weather to setting timers and running our smart home. This is our 3rd one in the house with absolutely no complaints.

    Alexa aka echo dot is awesome! She tells me everything I need to know! From jokes to the weather she does it all! Paired with some of the other devices in my home and she will even shut the lights off!

    This is our second Echo dot, bought this one for the bedroom to control our lights with the Phillips Hue. I'm sure there are people who like the Google I am just not one of them

    This is great. Adds handsfree to so many things. Place a call, play Pandora/iHeartRadio, ask about the weather, and so many other things. If you have two, they can work as an intercom system.

    If you want an easy way to experience home digital assistants this is a great entry point. The speaker isn’t great, but it picks up my commands just as good as the other Alexa enabled devices.

    This is a nice little addition to my home automation setup. I have it upstairs and it works just like the big Alexa just the sound is not as good. It integrated with all my stuff and "just works".

    From checking the time and weather, to listening to podcasts and music, to simple home automation, this little puck-shaped device does a lot.

    We already had one echo dot at home, so we added this one so the we could have one on the second floor and one on the main level. My wife and I love using these two as an intercom system.

    it's a simple concept, yet the most wonderful device ever. Just imagine, coming in the house, and just saying... "Alexa, play jazz music" and you now have non-stop jazz playing. or just say, "Alexa sing me a song" and she starts singing.... the device is intuitive and humorous at the same time.

    I purchased this at the recommendation of a friend. Now everyone in my house talks to Alexa! I would say, they should do more to bundle the various apps you will need to get the most bang from the tool!

    I love being able to ask for weather while getting ready for work and being able to listen to music while doing my household chores. Easy enough for my non tech savvy boyfriend to use as well

    We have 3 already and this one was purchased for my daughter for her dorm room. Unfortunately it doesn't work with the school's Wi-Fi but she is still excited to have it when she comes home!

    How did I check the weather before Alexa? First one was a gift and have purchased four additional ones. I love they convenience of having a "smart friend" there when I need her. Great value.

    The echo provides all the functions of the bigger alexa without a speaker but one is not nessary unless you want to listen to music. If this is the case a bluetooth speaker and be used or a plug type.

    I ordered on Black Weekend for $19.99 each. Great price and very good entry level product to get started. I found that it didn’t outperform my Braven BRV-1 in sound quality, but the sound quality was still very good. We decided to put these in the kids room and upgrade

    Bought this during the recent sale. I found the speaker lacking but paired it with an inexpensive blue tooth speaker and it works awesome. I will be adding more of these to my home in the future.

    After receiving an Echo Plus for my birthday, I purchased 4 Echo Dots for out house. 1 for each child. I also purchased a battery base so I can move the Echo Dot around easily. Great Product.
