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.

    Using this device as and addition to SmartThings system and love it. Speech recognition works pretty well in 9 of 10 times. Small form factor makes it easy to install in unobtrusive way. Tightly connected to AMAZON service and could be used to order items from this retailer using voice commands.

    I love this thing. It gets used all the time in our house. It is so versatile and has so many possible connections. Only thing is, be prepared to spend more money on other things to pair with it.

    Very convenient if you use Amazon music or have a Spotify premium account. Sound is not as good as the google home mini, or of course, than the bigger Echo, but it is fine — if you want something that sounds better you can also pair it with an external speaker.

    At first I thought it would just be a novelty, but as more functions become available it's utility has increased immensely . Finds recipes, gets the weather, traffic alerts before I leave for work, etc.

    Purchased this as a gift for daughter as Christmas present. She loves being able to control the mini device with her voice and her smart phone and it answers back. Perfect gift!

    I use this product daily. I would like to have more than one but the echos do not connect to each other. Every day I am excited to see what else I can connect the echo to. I enjoy playing music because I am able to change the station with out picking up my phone and completing the task manually.

    I have really enjoyed this product. It does not connect to everything but when it does it is really cool. I don't like the fact that I have to plug it in...which it had batteries.

    I purchased 6 of the Echo Dot's during the Black Friday specials. They were so affordable and I wanted 1 for almost every room in our house. They are so handy and easy to connect.

    So, this is the first "alexa" thing I've owned. I have a few smart home items, but this little thing really ties it all together. Totally worth getting Amazon unlimited to go along with it.

    The sound is good, but not great. The usefulness stays, but the fun wears off pretty soon. It was hard for some reason to get it set up to my phone hotspot...but on wireless it's fairly easy. Definitely not plug and play.

    I’ve put a few of these throughout my home. Alexa has become a part of our every day lives. The Dot is easy to find a spot for pretty much anywhere. Alexa is a very useful smart home device!

    I am just beginning to learn all the things my dot can do and so far I love it. As I have time I am looking up more tasks that it can do and having lots of fun discovering new things to try.

    The Echo Dot is great. Bought a second one so that we have one in the billiard's room and the upstairs main room. Works great for everything from music, news, weather and just getting information.
