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.

    The dot is primarily used in a bedroom to control the Lights in the other rooms of the house. We have 6 lamps connected with Wemo outlets. Also use the timer function. The Bluetooth connect to wireless speakers occasionally looses connection with speaker but is easy to reconnect.

    I love Alexa! I like the fact that you can choose what apps you want to activate and kind of customize it to your own liking. I wish you could pick a man's voice if your female. Lol. Could be named Alex! Now don't go and patent that or I want a cut! Lol. I think its a great idea!

    Unless you install the skills. It is a little bit limited for off-the-cuff response.

    Got this to augment my firestick for use in the bedroom. It plugs right into my Bose soundbar and is fantastic. Everynight we ask Alexa to tell a joke and then climb in bed and use it to control streaming media. Love it. I've also used it as an alarm and for that alone I am grateful!

    I originally bought one for someone else as a birthday gift, but decided to also treat myself after I read more about it's features. I really love the shopping list feature - no more forgetting my list at home. I tell Echo what I need and then can access it from my phone in the store.

    Life has become easier. Lights on and off, music, and not to mention a personal assistant. Dot is part of the Alexa family. If you want stereo speaker sound you will need a speaker to go with dot. A good investment and good starting point for getting started in smart home.
