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.

    Works as advertised. We set it up to work with the 2 ecobee thermostats we have and it works fine. I guess I really dont have much use for this device but it is a cool novelty.

    All's you have to do is ask Alexa a question and listen to what happens. That's just the tip of the iceberg.

    OK assistant but speaker is horrible. Needs to be connected to an External speaker. In order to work properly, you have to remember lots of skills commands. Google mini is way more user friendly. Still, it's an OK toy.

    I did not like it compared to google mini. It needs setup etc. which is unnecessary. Amazon should by default take care of all this. In this generation no one will do it.

    She's Got Your Back.

    Amazon's Echo Dot with Alexa is supportive as it is innovative. It is highly responsive to any voice and utilizes a whole set of skills (voice commands) to perform various events, such as play music, switch on or off lights, explain things off the web, tell you the time and date, and much more--she even develops new knowledge almost every day through the Alexa app. Definitely worth the purchase.
