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.

    After reading reviews I decided to purchase the dot and have not had any regrets. Like all electronic it’s not perfect and does glitch but for the convenience it provides its well worth it.

    Fast shipping. Love Alexa. Gave several as Christmas gifts. Have linked to our air unit and works great. Looking forward to getting other products to use with it such as garage door opener.

    Works well but costly. I wasn't satisified so had to buy another, along with a full size Echo, so yes, it was costly to try it. Kind of like having one potato chip, not enough.

    I've been pleasantly surprised with the Echo dot. It looks great on my table, I use it to control all the Hue lights in my house mainly. It's also great for quick questions about the weather and such.

    Great product. Very customizable. You can add skills and my favorite is Philips Hue. You can control your philips hue lights using voice commands. You could also control harmony hub connected devices.

    The Echo Dot is great. The speaker is surprisingly really good. I read other reviews indicating it was lacking. That was not my experience. It is remarkably accurate in understanding the commands

    great connected device. sound quality isn't great so if you're not planning on connecting it to a speaker you may elect for one of their pricer and better sounding speakers. personally i connect it to an older sound system that still sounds great but didn't have any connectivity.

    I bought a second dot for my home and placed this one in the bathroom paired with my Bluetooth speaker. I love the shower music, news flash briefing, and jokes while I get ready in the morning.

    Bought for my adult children. They said something about using with their firestick, but I don't know anything about that. They were both pleased to get and I got a great Black Friday deal.

    I bought this with the LIFX bulb and it's nice to be able to remotely or vocally control my lights. The voice recognition is a bit off sometime or it doesn't register what you said to respond, but other then that it's a fun toy to play with and the beginnings of building up my smart home.

    I am a little late to the smart home game but this seemed like a good beginning for me. I also bought a google assistant speaker and this one seems slightly smarter than google.

    This is a great product. Only cons is that I can play music from my phone or Apple Music. Also I can turn on my philips hue lights but Alexa work respond correctly when I ask her to change the colors.

    I use my Amazon Dot everyday for my normal tasks. If it is just to listen to the song that is stuck in my head, to set an alarm, or to ask where I should eat that day Alexa is always got an answer!

    Since I have stereo systems through out the house, dot was perfect. Voice control that respond through my systems. Three dots for 3 zones of the living space. I might get them for the rooms too.

    I love my echo dot for my office and porch. I don’t need a loud speaker but it’s so nice to have a little music to listen to while working or reading. So easy to get started and use.

    This has only gotten better as m ore skills are added. It controls my WeMO, ecobee, casetra. I recommend this over the Echo. Save your money and get the echo dot but pair it with a good wifi speaker.

    I have been using Alexa for weather forecasts, trivia and music. I love being hands free to make requests. I keep it in the kitchen so it makes getting dinner or other chores more fun.
