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.

    Very good for keeping up with the weather. Also useful for making to-do lists and lists for groceries. Works well as a timer. Voice recognition program still needs some work. Sometimes activates with background noise and unexpected response is startling.

    Not great for listening to music. Fun little gadget. Can control wemo devices. I purchased it to play with destiny 2. I would recommend saving for the echo 2.

    Not a bad system. It does come on from time time without being spoken to.

    I bought the Echo dot as part of the Thanksgiving sale and was pleasantly surprised by its ability to recognize and accept commands without any accent issues coming in the way. Bought a few more to give away as presents to friends and family.

    The echo dot has been great for the household. Everything from alarms, setting up reminders and communicating to our other dot in the back room as an intercom

    If you're looking for a real loud speaker for music then it's not worth it but it's got decent speaker for its size and has everything that a regular alexa can do

    Easy to set up. Works great. If you tell her what to do she does it. Not good for searching things like the Google home. But she does do alot more things than Google.

    This is a wonderful product, especially for $50. Pandora, Spotify, grocery lists, calendar, weather, games, all with just a voice command. Can't wait to learn/do more.

    I purchase this as a gift to my 15 year old daughter and she loved playing with it. She said she doesn’t have to enter the song she wanted to play in the keypad instead she just have to say it. She likes the idea that it is convenient to use.

    Although I missed out on the Holiday special pricing, I purchased this item for my college age Grandson in January. It was easy to set up and link to my Echo.

    Why waste a bunch of money on the Echo when you can get a Dot and combine it with a bluetooth speaker? Great product and I use it every day, mostly for music.

    I have had my Echo Dot for a couple of years now and I have to admit hat I do not use all of the features that it provides. I use it to play music and every so often my son will play games with it. It has collected dust at times.

    This is a very good product. It can be a little difficult to set up but is still worth the headache. I paired this with my harmony remote and I am very pleased. Sometimes Alexa won't understand my commands which is why I rated it 4 stars instead of 5.

    I love this product and the things you can get Alexa to do. Playing music using Pandora is a plus. A must have. Looking forward to purchasing the Echo show as well.
