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.

    So far, we are impressed with the Dot. Serves the function of home assistant well. Trivia games in the bedroom are fun and flash briefings keep you up to date with the world.

    Got one of these as a gift for my Dad at Christmas. He's notoriously hard to buy for, we usually get gift certificates. Went with an Echo Dot this year to be different. 3 weeks later he already has added a full size Echo. He's having a great time with them.

    It's an Echo product from Amazon...so it's good. One of the two best voice-activated products out there. The other one is a full-size Echo.

    I absolutely love this product!! It was so easy to set up and I can ask Alexa for anything. My favorite part of it is playing the music just say a name you want to hear and it plays.

    Nice integration with pandora music. Sleep sounds is the best feature I like. Voice recognition is really good. Has an aux out, so cant be connected to big speakers as well.

    I bought this for my in-laws as a Christmas present and they loved it! It was very easy to get set up and simple to use! They paired it with a couple smart-outlets and they have fun with all of the features that Alexa offers!

    I wanted to try the smaller echo dot. It works as well as the larger version except it does not have as good a speaker. But I do understand that an external speaker can be added. The sound quality of the dot is fine for my needs which is mostly voice or background music

    I use my Echo Dot to control my smarthome switches (Insteon). It works great for this purpose. I also use it to control some of my A/V equipment using the Logitech Harmony Hub. That works well too although that is less reliable due to limitations of the Harmony Alexa skill.

    We already had an echo plus and purchased two dots to add Alexa to more rooms in our home. The dots do not have as great of sound quality as the Plus, but it meets our needs.
