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.

    It was amazing how much we depend on her when the power went out... So happy when it came back. I control Christmas lights, office lights, space heaters... all with Alexa and Phillips Hue

    The echo dot is very easy to set up. I enjoy the feedback it provides and music features. I recommend you do the voice training to avoid repeating yourself. I order 2 more as gifts to others. Awesome !!!!!!!!!!

    This is great for the price. You get all the same features as the one with the speaker. But you save 100 bucks. Speaker not that load but she does respond well. It is not perfect but for the price its worth it.

    She doesn't know everything...

    We like her. She is fun, she controls our thermostat and sets our alarm for us when you ask her to. Using Alexa is the ultimate in laziness but worth it! You have to enable skills for her to do or answer things you ask of her. She doesn't know everything, even with skills enabled, but she is well worth $50.

    This little gem is cool. I talk to her sometimes just to here the things she has to say, but in addition to that, I can't wait to start transforming our home into a "smart home" just to get the full benefits of having her around. The speaker sounds great in our space and it's just cool.... :)

    I absolutely love this. It's like having your own personal assistant. I would highly recommend for the techy in your house. We have ours paired with the Phillips HUE and the WEMO switches and it works amazingly.

    I have fallen in love with my dot. It's one of those things that after you have it you wonder how you ever lived without it! So many uses some very practical and others just plain fun. Very highly recommended!

    Already had an Echo for my living room downstairs and when i saw Best Buy have the echo dot on sale, figured it would make sense to pick one up for my bedroom upstairs. So far, everything's great. No complaints.

    This a really good compliment to the Echo/Echo plus. It was small enough that I could easily hide it between my top cabinets and fridge. Works great even without its bigger siblings.

    The Amazon Dot is a great product. I have 3 in my house now. Use it for timers, alarms, music at night, weather and just generally love this. Was a great deal at Best Buy, cheaper than from Amazon.

    This speaker is great as I can listen to music and ask for instructions on cooking. I’d recommend to have Amazon prime or unlimited music to take full advantage of the speaker. We have it in our kitchen and it was nice to listen to music while we are cooking or hanging out.

    Ingenious little electronic device. My 10 year old neice loves her new friend Alexa. She answers many of her questions with surprisingly good sound quality for a little speaker. A good present and deal for $40!

    I set the dot up to my vacuum tube stereo so I can have Bluetooth and volume control by speaking. I also have it set up to some hue lighting and a camera. It's a great device, I love it and use it daily.
