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 love it. There is so much to learn daily. It is very entertaining. You discover something else it can do all the time. Just ask it a question and it will respond. It is such a fun device. I really enjoy it.

    I'm 100% satisfied with my purchase. Alexa is very responsive and hears everything even when speaking softly. I'm using it for home automation and some other skills that Alexa is good for. Highly recommended!

    This is fun to use. I just didn't know that I had to buy specific plugs in order to control Appliance. There are new things to learn everyday. Sometimes I feel like there's another person in the house.

    This product is amazing. Talk about hands free and convenience. I get more things done since the little things that slow me down are answered through my Echo Dot. Have 2 and will be adding 2 more to my house.

    I was given 2 Echo Dot's for my birthday and I absolutely love them! It is so nice having them in multiple rooms for the music and the smart home capabilities. I highly recommend them to anyone!

    Very simple to set up . I personally don't have amazon prime but still works fine. I connected to Pandora and works fine. Also is easy to connected to any portable Bluetooth speakers that I have in the house.

    I love the dot because it Helps you out with weather, ordering online, playing music & many more possibilities that I haven't even gotten to yet. Also it connects with the HUE lighting system for the house.

    I like using it as an alarm clock. When it wakes me and I roll over and sleep extra minutes, I can ask Alexa what time it is and she answers! I don't even need to look at the clock! Alarm clocks are obsolete!

    I have a full Echo upstairs and my Dot runs all the lower level of my home. After buying one, all I want is another! These are super versatile and convenient. You will love having them throughout your home!

    It works great and does not need the larger echo unit to function which I did not know. For the price it's a great deal in any room. Just does not have the speaker sound quality of the larger original unit.

    Got this for my husband for Christmas and he absolutely loves it. He is a huge music fan and nice to speak what he wants played on Spotify. He also joked that, finally he has someone who listens to him. Ha ha

    We purchased the device for a family member, where there will be another echo device in the house hold, it works very well paired with the other device. One more notch in the smart home experience.

    We bought the Echo Dot for our twin boys who ask us incessant questions. Now they can ask some of them to Alexa. I am very impressed with the speed of the requests and the broad based abilities for tasks.

    I purchased the Echo Dot 2nd Generation for my 8 year old son. He was extremely excited to have his own, He basically uses it more than I use the other dots throughout the house, LOL!!!

    First I asked Alexa to play This is Christmas by John Lennon. She said "now playing This is Christmas by I Can't Believe It's Not John Lennon". WTF? Next, my 5 year old daughter asked Alexa to play the Star Wars theme song. Alexa said "now playing the theme to Star TREK". Not cool Alexa! Not cool at all!

    Bad sound quality

    We have a 2nd generation amazing Echo, and decided a dot would go well in our office. We ended up returning the dot due to poor sound quality (I understand it's not supposed to be a premium sound Bose speaker but it was just plain poor sound). Because of that alone, we returned the product.

    Not a big fan of Amazon, but the unit does what it is supposed to do. Found it had a hard time with my voice (don't like to shout/repeat myself/have an accent), so it was frustrating at times. However, I liked the concept enough to upgrade to a Tap and give it one of my children.
