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.

    I purchased the dot as a novelty; but it has proven to be very useful. I got a second one so we could use them as a portable wireless intercom also. It's very handy having the weather, news and traffic information just a request away.

    the Dot is th perfect companion for the echo. I have a Dot in multiple rooms and can use them as an intercom when needing my children. Also allows me to access my hubs in each level of the house without having to purchase an echo for each level.

    Alexa is fun, but needs to learn how to answer more complex questions.

    Bought this for my wife for Christmas. I use it more than she does! I have insomnia so I ask Alexa for sleep music or ocean waves and comes right on. Want temp? Just ask. Thai restaurant? Just ask. It's like having a music library in your room. A great value

    Great Value for the price! For the price the speakers are good. It will answer a lot of your questions & update you on the latest news & weather. Plus you are able to play you're music on it and take it where ever you have wi-fi & you are able to plug it in!

    The Dot serves perfectly as an access to Alexa's information and connections. We've renamed her Echo so our other girl doesn't respond to commands or inquiries meant for Dot. The speaker is weak but she's in a room that has good music so it's ok

    This is a really inexpensive fun and informative thing. It is a helper when I’m cooking, Alexa, how many tbs. in 1/4 cup. When it’s too quiet, Alexa play music. When I have to go somewhere, Alexa, how long will it take to get to.... WHAT A HELP!

    I bought the echo dot to tie in my home Lights, did great for my voice commands, but if someone who had a slight accent attempted, "Alexa" had no clue what they were saying. Loved the app, very interesting to see what Alexa is asked when I'm not around....

    We love the Echo/Alexa product line. This is our 2nd Echo and I bought it for my 10 yr old son, at his request. Connect it to our Smart Things Hub to control our home automation. Kids like to ask it questions, play music, and set alarms. Fun, fun, fun!!!
