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 purchased 3 dots, one for the kitchen, one for my master bedroom and one for my master bath. From to do lists to shopping lists to Amazon music, Alexa is our helper

    This is an awesome product that is easy to use. It's as easy as asking a question and with a smart plug you can turn on and off lights, check the news and listen to music.

    I actually purchased three of them. One for each bedroom and we can listen to music control lights, etc. Now we can also use them to speak to each other as an intercom.

    I really enjoy having the echo on my bedside table. Great for reviewing news, weather, calendar, playing music, asking questions, etc. For the price point it is a must have.

    Love having this in the bedroom to conrtol lights and ask questions from there. It does a good job with the Echo of determining which device to activate when you talk to it.

    A very well-designed voice assistant. It has a lot of functions: controling smart plugs, answer questions, and more. Playing music with it is also very convenient.

    I like the Dot better than the rest of my family. As a result, I use it in my home office only. I mainly use alarms/timers, news brief, shopping list. I would love to use the feature to turn lights on and off when I can get my family on board.

    I love the Echo Dot. We have 5 of them + a full size Amazon Echo in our house. The Dot is great to put in each room and leave the Amazon Echo in a family room to play music.

    Got it as a fun item. It is really filled with features that I have not explored yet, but the ones I have used (calendar, shopping list, weather, music) work very well.

    Does everything that you see in the commercials. Sometimes it doesn't understand the command or mis interperates it. Sound quality is pretty good for such a small size. Music selection it very limited with out Amazon music unlimited subscription.

    I have 3 second gen echo dots and would have given it 5 stars, except now I bought a couple of the third gen dots and find them to have a much better sound quality. While on sale, I’d say pay the extra $10 and go for the third gen.

    The Echo Dot performs exactly as I expected. I have started with WeMo switches to automate my home and the voice command is a great feature. Paired with a Bluetooth adapter connected to my Bose Wave system, the Dot's small built-in speaker is not a problem.
