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 bought this on sale during Christmas. It's useful with giving weather updates and finding information. I'm going to but a second one for our downstairs and integrate it with our thermostat so we don't have to get up to change the temperature!

    Love the dot! Use it to listen to music, set alarms, get the weather before getting dressed in the morning. Cant believe for $30 I didn't get one sooner. Hooked it up to computer speakers for more volume/bass when needed, LOVE IT!!!!

    My favorite application for the echo is playing music. However the speaker on the unit is very poor so I now have a plug in speaker that although not great is completely satisfactory. Nice to call up any songs I want with just a voice command.

    First one started having Bluetooth connection issues after a few days. Exchanged and got another...same problem within a few days. Went with direct connect between speaker and Echo Dot and works great. If you can deal with lack of Bluetooth, nice product. If not...problematic product.

    Ok, so the Echo Dot can pretty much do anything without having a computer on. Unfortunately, it does not do dishes (Yet!). I have it linked to some smart outlets in my home. Yes, it can make you lazy, but that's the whole idea.

    Thought I would make more use out of it but bought it to have for the future. Also bought smart plugs to use with Echo. Got them set up but it was VERY difficult. Alexa doesn't always get commands right but after a few tries she works. Her weather reports are rarely correct. Don't know where she gets them. But all in all I'm glad to have the product.

    Alexa

    Is evolving getting used to her a bit she must remain plugged in if you lose power you have to reconnect her to the internet. Slightly confusing at first but once you hook her in you will understand how the system functions. Its a very specific system so you must learn the command properly or she has no clue what you are talking about.
