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.

    Purchased for my 10-year-old son. He seems to be able to understand how to work it and he set it up himself. When paired with home automation this is a fun little device for the money.

    Debated on getting the large one but then decided I wouldn't really use it for streaming music as I have the Bose Revolve speaker and it pairs with it- bonus! This is perfect for what I need. Have it set up in my kitchen and can ask the weather, ingredient exchanges or measurements and simple items like that. If you don't really plan on using it as a speaker for your music, the inexpensive Dot is a perfect way to try out the whole "Alexa" thing.

    Really affordable way to get the convenience of Alexa in an extra room. Not good sound for music but perfectly fine for all the other stuff. And it’s small.

    Works well most of the time, but it does have challenges connecting with certain smart home products. Still relatively new at using this so I will improve my rating if I find that the challenges I’ve had were just user error.

    We use Alexa every day to turn on/off lights, set timers, check the weather, find store hours, ask trivia, and even to make calls to people on our contact list. NOTE: when using for making calls, we manually added people to our contact list instead of having Alexa import all my contacts from my phone. Because do you really need to be able to call your dentist hands-free from anywhere in your house? Or call them inadvertently?
