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.

    Kids are asking Alexa questions every day. Now I have to look into buying things that are compatible with it to control different things in the house. Has me looking for "Alexa" compatible things.

    The echo dot is the best Christmas gift I purchased for my self. Excited about learning and building together with Alexa. I will be adding other items like smart lights, another dot or 2

    This is a great size for a bedroom. It isn't as nice as the larger one, but perfect for a bedroom or small office.

    I have a regular Alexa, but I purchased the dot for my bedroom. She will play music or use as an alarm. So I don't have to worry about a blinking clock if the power goes out and back on later

    I love all things Amazon, but this takes a lot of time and effort to set this up to get the results you want. I wanted an Echo, but everywhere I could buy one was sold out, including Amazon. This is what I settled for. After my excitement to give Alexa the request to give me the weather, let me know what's on my calendar for the day....she was ALL wrong ALL of the time. Come to find out, there are other components that I need to download in order for this to work. Maybe one day I'll find the time to sit and get everything together to get this to work for me.

    This is my 2nd echo dot and you get what you pay for. The sound quality isn't near as good as the Echo Plus, but it definitely does the job for basic personal assistant tasks.

    This can hooked up to blue tooth speakers where the echo can not. Alexa understands my voice commands where Siri does not.

    Cool home tech

    The Echo Dot sits on our fridge in the kitchen. It's become a handy gadget in that part of our home. "Alexa, set a timer for 5 minutes. Alexa, what's the news update? Alexa, what's the weather today?"...and so on and so forth. Even our kids from ages 3 to 9 get in on the action and it's fun for them. Teamed with Amazon Prime they can even ask Alexa to play their favorite songs while eating breakfast. I just might need to pick up a few more to spread around the house.
