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.

    I have had an echo dot. My kids love using it. I bought them each one for their rooms this year. They love it. They now leave mine alone and go to their room to listen to music.

    I bought this for my 80yr old mother. She loves it. I paired it with a smart plug so she can have Alexa turn her lights on by request. I also set reminders for her.

    I love my Dot. We put one in the bathroom and my children use it for music and podcasts while they bathe. We can also use it to adjust the lighting with our hue lighting system.

    Echo Dot is very easy to use, no complaints from me. I've even renamed my Echo Dot from "Alexa" to "Echo". My kids love the small Dot and the big Echo. Again, no complaints from me.

    I love the echo dot. It works well as a smart assistant and is a very reasonable price. Just don't have high expectations for the speaker volume and quality.

    A Great AI

    Just like everything, this has it's pro's and con's, but the pro's are many and the con's are just annoyances here and there. As for the differences between this and google, they are to be expected. If you are the kind of person that asks a bunch of questions or need to know a bunch of answers, then a google is for you. But if you need to know the weather, turn your ac up or down, or need the answers to general questions like me, then hey, you just got your dream AI. This works great for me and the listening/hearing areas are great. If anything, I'd buy this again... hands down.

    Good In-expensive Alternative for Voice Assistant

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this when it was on sale. I am a Prime member with a Fire TV device so I thought it would be a good addition to my smart home. It works very well in my kitchen and it responds well to my voice at normal volume. It also links with my Honeywell Lyric Thermostat to control the temperature in my home. Alexa is very intuitive when listening to Music through Spotify. The speaker is not the greatest but I like that I can connect my bluetooth speaker for added quality. This is great for the price range. I could not see myself paying so much for the Amazon Echo but the Dot was reasonable and I feel like I'm still getting the full experience.

    I bought this for my husband and now I use it more than he does. We've since purchased one for my dad and two more for other areas of the house. It's easy and fun to set up and use.

    Older model but for the incredible low price I always find a room for it. Works great with all my TP Link Kasa switches and bulbs to.

    Am not alone. Once you set up Alexa by downloading the App, and pairing to a Wifi, now you are good. Get apps for weather, schedule and others. Alexa answers questions and give me Updates and time. Excellent I have a buddy at home. Plus my gf now want to do things for me.

    Great tech in a small package but the sound quality isn't great for my needs. I have 3 full size echos now. I have one going 24/7. Whether it's an Audible book or white noise ocean sounds while I sleep it's always going. I can see a use for the dot but not for my setup.

    Great product for the price. However, did not find it practical for everyday use. It’s good for setting alarms and playing trivia. Although in order to listen to music you need to subscribe to a music provider.

    One of my best purchases of 2016. I don't use it as often as I really could because I sometimes forget about it but it can be really useful & the price is really low for the capabilities.
