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 2nd generation versions are great with a sleek look, but I now prefer the 3rd generation version which can fit into more decors without looking like a hockey puck. Still have several of each kind around the house.

    Wonderful Product. We used the dots to connect with our Echo Show and another echo. All work great. They all allow for the ability to have a household intercom system, which makes it nice when we're all in different areas of the house.

    We totally fell in love with our Alexa in the living room, but she didn’t always respond in other parts of the house. Now we have echo dots in the kitchen and living room, and our entire house is Alexa accessible!

    The Echo is fun to use. It takes some time to "train" it with different commands and it sometimes get the requests wrong, but you're able to correct it through the app so it's more accurate. It has many useful and fun features such as discounted Amazon orders, recipe and shopping list storage, and is also very convenient if paired with the smart lights.

    The device itself is beautiful, well made, and easy to set up. My main use for the dot is home automation and it sometimes falls short of alternatives like Siri's HomeKit integration. When I say "turn on the bedroom lights" it doesn't know what I mean. I can only say turn on/off all of the lights. Could be updated on the hue or Alexa app side of things.

    I purchased the dot, and put it in the living room. We have Dish, and it’s great be able adjust or tune the TV when the remote isn’t handy. We’are now adding pieces to control lights etc. I’lol be programming the lights for vacations.

    Still learning so much more about what Alexa can do but overall I’m enjoying it. It can be quite expensive to operate your home using the Echo but if you purchase the extras a little at a time it can wind up being very fun and helpful.

    Alexa is a very close cousin of Google home with few additional skills GOOD- - Free World Radio service from TuneIn. - Good volume for a single room - 360 Alexa keyword invoke BAD- - Fails to understand a lot of keywords - Voice control for volume shaky - Light turns on by itself without any activation command

    Alexa is awesome! Fun to ask all kinds of questions to see what you get for answers! I subscribe to Amazon Prime and the music that is available is amazing! You can ask her to play just about any song, artist, genre, etc!
