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 have an Amazon Echo in our primary residence and, based on our positive experience, we purchased a dot for each of our other two residences. We use it for weather, timer, news, music, etc. and love it.

    I love Alexa and now it's in my room without taking up space. I have the echo and this works just as well just smaller. You will want to hook it up to bluetooth speaker for better sound , simple to do.

    For the most part the echo dot has been great. There is a bit of a learning curve and the app is a bit of a mess honestly, but updates will do that. It works perfectly with my huenlights and nest thermostat.

    the dot is a great add-on to the echo especially if you have great speakers you'd like to use. I have this in my living room connected to some Bose and the Echo in my bedroom. It's the perfect combo.

    The sale price at about $40 is a steal. The sound quality is more then adequate for my purposes. Alexa picks up her name from anywhere in the room. All in all, more then I expected from such a small device.

    Very easy setup. New skills added all the time. Within 24 hours of receiving first one, purchased two more to increase coverage within my home. Would recommend to anyone that already has a Prime membership.

    I purchased this echo dot to streaming music in my car. With the help of my in-car hotspot, this device does a reasonable job. It is very easy to setup, and can answer your verbal request to stream a station, a particular song or singer. A ground loop noise isolator is needed for using in car.

    Paired the Dot with my original Alexa device and it works great. Have replaced the old alarm clock in the bedroom and now I am waking up to music I have asked her to play daily. Great device!

    it is a great place you can own a voice recognition system but you need to push the button as there is no remote not like the expensive one Amazon Echo. This one is small and easy to put anywhere nearby you

    Amazing Amazon device! I love how smart these things are. The original had no bluetooth connectivity and no built in speaker. Adding those two makes this the most versatile computer assistant on the market.

    I bought this to have in our master bedroom/bathroom to play music and answer questions. We have the larger version in our kitchen, this speaker still has a wonderful quality sound. Very happy with it.
