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 purchased the Amazon Echo Dot because I was looking for a "personal assistant" device at a reasonable price. Well, this is that device! Alexa is great, and we're loving this device!

    Recently purchased and really enjoying the basics of what it can do. Looking forward to connecting smart home products. Only gave it 4 stars because I did have to reset and reinstall it once. Hope it's not going to be an issue. Other than that it works great.

    Like the headline states, it is very cool! The voice command really makes the Echo stand out! It is fun to just mess around with! Ask Alexa to tell you a dirty joke...and a clean one!

    We use this more than I ever thought I would. We use Alexa mainly for weather forecasts, but also for timers and just general information. My husband has her tell him the word and joke of the day. There are some things she doesn't know and will tell you that!

    I use this for my music on a daily basis. You can listen to pandora and other music services and you can even sync your phone to play what you have on your phone.

    I got this for my family with some missgivings but they love it. Morning weather reports and news briefs are their favorite. I usually enjoy l hunting for "Easter eggs".

    I bought this on a lark but have found it to be much more valuable than I ever imagined. My wife is a technophobe but has fallen in love with Alexa. She uses this more than I do!

    I'd shout it from the mountain top...I love Alexa, if I could. This is my second Amazon Dot, added to my two Amazon Echos. My house is now fully covered by the Alexa App. I love her!

    Just getting started learning what "Alexa" can do for me. Alexa can set a timer, tell a joke, change the thermostat. It's easy and fun to have an "assistant".

    I probably don't use it as much as I should have but I'm still getting used to it. Sometimes she picks up stuff and starts talking out of the blue and it's a little surprising.

    Nice product. It does have it's shortcomings and limitations. Sometimes it takes a while for Alexa to understand simple statements, if at all. More or less, it does what it set out to do. I wish there was a way to use a bluetooth headset with mic to communicate with alexa.

    Turning lights on and off throughout house with voice, shopping list function, daily trivia, control thermostat, stream music,etc..... Speaker is insufficient for music play but will interface with external speakers. Unnecessary convenience, but fun nonetheless.....
