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.

    Picked up on sale and likely the best overall home automation device in this price range available today. Combined with all the Alexa skills and HUE lights, this second generation dot from Amazon is amazing.

    I am very impressed by this little device not only is it reasonable priced but the technology inside it outstanding. Please consider purchasing Alexa before any other Voice assistant, you will not be disappointed.

    Great Intro to Smart Home

    Short version: this is a great option to test the waters of smart assistants in the home without breaking the budget. I read countless reviews before buying the Echo Dot and had my own preconceptions about it. I figured it'd be a fun gadget to link with my Sensi connected thermostat and control my music. It does everything as advertised with a relatively simple setup. What I didn't expect was that my girlfriend would take to using it for kitchen timers, audiobooks, buy me a smart light, and end up using it more than I do. Audio quality sounds ok, but it pairs with my Bluetooth home theater system for serious listening. If you don't have a Bluetooth sound system, you might want to consider the full sized Echo that sounds MUCH better.

    I already have an Amazon Echo in my living room but I thought my bedroom would benefit from the Echo Dot. Both devices work better than I expected. The only difference is that the dot has a less dynamic speaker so I connected my Bose B/T speaker to it. I now use the dot as my primary alarm and music streamer.

    This is my first Echo Dot. I also have a first gen Echo. While the audio quality of the Dot cannot compare to the Echo, it is extremely good given it's size. Set up and use are both a breeze.

    I first saw the Amazon Echo Dot at a relative's house, and loved the whole notion of a personal assistant. Alexa is friendly, knowledgeable, and there when I need information from her. All at a great price point!

    I love my Echo Dot. I had been seeing all the commercials about it, read a few reviews and decided to give it a try because of its amazing price. I love it! If you like Siri with Apple, you will LOVE the Echo Dot.

    This thing is awesome. If you don't need the built in speaker on the full echo this takes care of everything else. I pair it with my stereo system to listen to music. Easy to setup, easy to use, great use cases.

    I love this product! It makes life so much easier - I can turn lights on and off with voice commands, use it as an alarm to wake up in the morning, find out information (weather, history, etc).... Easy to set up.

    Great item with more new uses all the time. I will probably buy about (4) more for main rooms in house Including garage. This was a fast delivery and well packaged. Will use you for future electronic purchases.

    Simple to set up with the Alexa app and it just works. I'm using it for simple things like shopping lists, lights, and alarm clock. I know it does more but for a cheap price it's doing what I need it to do. The sound isn't stereo quality but hey - that's not what it's geared to be.
