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. I tied Alexa into my smart home system and I can ask alexa to do pretty much anything. My original purpose was to simplify my home theater system for my wife by tying alexa into harmony hub. Works great!

    Awesome works as I had hoped. Why spend the extra money on the full blown Echo when the dot is far less money and does the same thing. We love it. I have it controlling several key lights in the house and have not touched a light switch in weeks. So nice to walk into a dark house say "Alexa turn on the lights" and the lights come on.

    This is the second of these I have bought as gifts in two months. Maybe someone will catch on that we wouldn't mind receiving one too! I can't comment directly on product usage, but the people we bought them for have absolutely raved about them! I will say that Best Buy's price for the Echo Dot was FAR superior to other retailers.

    Handy but with quirks

    The echo dot is a very versatile and discreet device. It has ample range for a small to even large size room but has to be located optimally in a place that can be reached by your voice and away from noise sources such as TV. It picks up your voice consistently even with ambient or even moderate noise. It can get confused if you don't set up alternate words to it's skills, and will make any sane person frustrated when trying to command it to do something simple. To set the additional words can be cumbersome and therefore the minus 1 star. The sound for playing music using music everywhere feature is neat but lacks any sort of decent bass for a party setting. The sonos would be much better at that. Functionally, it's great for alexa tasks controlling a smart home. Ours is paired with a smartthings hub and several appliances that it supports: hue, linear garage door opener, kwikset locks, and switches that control recess lighting. We have an echo is every room and for the price, it's affordable to have smart home access virtually anywhere in your house!
