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.

    Great Home Automation Interface

    We have installed several smart bulbs and switches throughout our house and turned to the Echo Dot to be a simple interface by which to control that. We have both SmartThings and Hue hubs and primarily use the Echo to control devices connected to them. In addition to doing an exceptional job for that intended task, we've also found ourselves using the Echo for quick kitchen conversions and as a kitchen timer. There are an endless number of "skills" (basically apps) you can install on the Echo, so no matter your intended use, the Echo probably has you covered.

    Our kids loved getting these as gifts! They can take them back to college to use in their dorm room and apartments. Perfect size for small spaces.

    Alexa can play any genre of music you ask her. This alone makes it such a great product. It connects easily to my Bose speaker via wifi. What a great buy!

    This is certainly not a necessity for most. It is affordable, but read its capabilities carefully. It is easy to set up and the Dot is an affordable option to the Echo if you do not want to spend a lot and have a good bluetooth speaker.
