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.

    This is the perfect device for my newly installed Phillips Hue bulbs around the house! The fact that it connects me to my Prime membership is a huge plus as well!! Just awesome!

    Echo Dot is a great little unit to use in rooms where your larger echo can’t hear you. It has great voice recognition and is able to perform all the commands as the Echo

    This was a great addition to our echo family. Our son gets a kick out of controlling the living room lights from his room. He uses the alarm and timer functions religiously.

    Great addition to your Alexa based house. Not great for music but they tell you that up front. Easy to setup and allows you to extend voice recognition throughout your home.

    We didn't need the larger Alexa that provides the nice speaker, as we already have UE Booms, so it was nice to have this smaller and less expensive alternative. Works great!

    Amazon echo is great for home automation. My system is simple yet elegant. “Computer, turn off bedroom lights”. Done. Works great, small and compact.

    The Dot can be used with multiple systems and is user friendly & adapts with the various skills that Amazon & independents develop for the system. Extremely powerful mic system can capture utterances from a good distance so be careful what you say ;)

    I hate the idea of a device listening to us all the time, but when I want to play some music or get the weather, it's super nice to just be able to ask.

    Save yourself a hundred dollars and get the echo dot. Great speaker with enough boom to fill a few rooms with the command of your voice. Skills are constantly being updated too!
