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.

    This is the second Dot I have purchased in order to control a second room's lights. Love the ease of voice control. Start your day with the weather report, and get the scores of games you missed. Perfect for people always on the go.

    I have several of these around the house. They are connect to my zwave switches. It is awesome to be able turn on and off light with your voice when your hands are full. I can't wait for Amazon and Sonos to partner up to allow full control over the Sonos system too.

    Got one for my mom & grandma for mother's day & they love it. They ask Alexa questions all the time, but she doesn't know every answer. I haven't tried the Google home, but Im thinking that may know more answers although the Echo Dot works great in my opinion.

    You do not have to have the big one for this to work. It does the same stuff it just has a smaller speaker and that's why it's small. But the sound is still really good. This is good for bedroom or bathroom, but I would get the big one for like a Living Room area.

    I am use to using Siri but Alexa has shown me that there is room for more than one disembodied voices in my life. I have not used all of the features but everything that I have tried is great. Mist of the time I Use it to control my living room light and play music.

    The echo dot is amazing and affordable. I mainly use it for asking Alexa questions and controlling Philips Hue lights. The speakers are fine for just interacting with Alexa, so if you dont need to use it to play music, this is the Echo to get.

    Always I have been dreaming of having a voice assistant in my office and bedroom to minimize unnecessary actions. Wherever I am in terms of direction, this small dude could recognize my voice at any time, any direction. You should have it!

    This is my second order of Dot. I bought the Echo and Dot when they were launched respectively. This thing is life saver for my visually impaired kid. He uses it to the max. That's the reason I placed another order to get couple more to have it in every room

    Before buying this product I didn't do much reseach on it to aside from replaying the awesome commercial . Easy set up and very responsive to voice almost at any tone level . Only con I have is that Alexa currently does not have access to my Apple Music which sucks, I already pay a subscription fee for it now I have to subscribe to Spotify which in my opinion isn't comparable .

    This is a great device to control your connected devices. Mine controls the Nest, Logitech remote, and lights. It also does a good job streaming music when connected to a speaker, mine connects to the home theatre system, and it uses all the popular services.

    Dot is a great value especially at $35 on sale. Use primarily for 8 year old daughter as her alarm and scheduler. Great to get her more independent at getting herself up and deciding what clothes to wear based on activities and weather for the day. I'm personally an Apple person. But Alexa is a much better voice assistant. Gets everything the first time and correctly.

    Works great no issues. Keep in mind it’s just a little dot, so the sound quality that comes out isn’t the best. Other than that. Works awesome

    The Echo Dot is the smaller version of the product. This is a small and simple to use device. Talking to "Electra" has been informational and a blast. Note -- shows you can play music from anywhere -- though you do have to have a service to pull from. Just a note.
