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.

    Really wish I would have sprung for the echo rather than the dot. It does all I need it too, to work with my echo plus but the speaker is lacking due to its size. If you just want to control stuff and ask questions this is perfect. If you want to listen to music go to the echo.

    I’m recovering from surgery & use Alexa for timer several times a day for icing. Reports weather accurately & just fun to ask questions in general. I’ve had to do a reset about 3 times already in about a week. She seems to freeze up. I have the smart plug & Hope to set up soon.

    The thing I like the most about the echo dot is that it responds to your questions immediately. If it pauses any longer before it responds, I don't think I have used it as much. However, Alexa will need to get smarter as there are many times that it is not responding to what I intended.

    Interacts with our ECHO. One device from one room in the home can call the other device in the other room. Good volume capability. Husband listens to it for talk radio, music not so good.

    My main use is to voice control devices such as Sony TV. Surprisingly, Echo Dot can hear very well across a big room. It is convenient when it works, though it doesn’t always work. Hope its integration with Sony TV, Blu Ray player, Netflix, etc. will improve steadily with time.

    Perfect for the kids to use and have fun with. Companion pieces to our echo. Syncs nicely in house with amazon account, iCloud for calendar, etc. No complaints. Waiting to add a few more.

    Great product. But you need a Bluetooth speaker

    I love my Alexa. I got the dot because I already had a Bluetooth speaker. The speaker on the dot is not good enough to play any music so a speaker to connect it (with Bluetooth or cable) IS A MUST

    The Amazon Echo Dot is fun for the whole family. Between telling jokes, crazy facts, adding items to my grocery list, or just getting a flash news briefing, it has made my life easier and more fun.

    This is a second Echo Dot in my house! I have the large Alexa and the Dots I use as an intercom for my upstairs bedrooms. I may just buy one more for our guest bedroom as a conversation piece!

    This is my second Amazon Echo Dot. I really like the features,even just asking what's the weather? Echo Dot can do so much more and I'm looking forward to learning and using it for more things.

    Bought the original Echo in 2015 and have enjoyed everything about it. Purchased this a "satellite" Echo for my smart home equipment. There are now more than 10,000 Echo "Skills" (apps) available.

    It's convenient to get news briefing, weather forecast, but still a learning curve as to what it can do. I still don't know how to command it for other functions, i.e., to turn on/off Hue light hub.

    These are great and we'll priced. It's is awesome for reading audible books to you or your kids at night as they fall asleep. I will say I was slightly disappointed in the range of alexa. She doesn't understand a lot of what you say. But still a great product and I would recommend the dots.

    Even though it supports a lot of capabilities, Google Home does it through IFTTT. By far google home has the best answering capability when it comes to knowledge, but it ur looking for a cheap device to automate thing in your home as an add-on to google home, this is the best device.

    Didnt read properly and brought it for my daughter for christmas as a wireless music player. My iphone speaker plays music louder than this device. It would be alot more efficient if it was wireless.

    I actually purchased this Echo as a gift. But, I have 2 in my house. Great assistant for the house. I've integrated mine into my home automation system. Cool to be able to perform voice commands.
