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.

    It is so much easier to just ask Alexa a question rather than having to google everything. We use the dot to play music so we don't have to use our phones, etc.

    Bought this for my garage to control smart bulbs and garage door opener. I like the 2nd generation as it's easier to clean, just wipe off dirt and dust!

    I like that it is small. I have this in extra rooms in the house. And you can use it as a intercom too. I use it for a clock and weather a lot. Very convenient.

    I really enjoy using it with my Amazon account/ music. Great as and alarm clock or timer. I connect it to my home stereo system with auxiliary input and also my Bluetooth speaker. So so as a search engine Google is a little bit better but overall very pleased with it

    Such an easy gift to give. I actually gave one to my parents this year and they ended up giving me one as well. My parents are not “techies” and they easily talk to Alexa.

    Turns on most of the things you use. It sets timers, lights, alarms, and turns on music for you...just ask her. Great for meditation, daily affirmations...not too much she can't do.

    This is a nice little device for the money. It's easy to set up and use and new skills are added almost every week. I especially like having Alexa add events to my calendar for me.

    This is a better good product. But does not work well for some cases, for example, user with different noise environment, and different accent. Some times the searched results are funny. Also, hope it support other languages. Price good compares with Amazon Echo.

    I got a dot and a product that had Google assistant. Compared to the dot Google assist is funnier, more creative and less robotic than Alexa. I also could use the Google assistant spotify free app where as with the dot, Alexa said I needed a premium spotify account. I returned her and have adopted the Google assistant.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    This is just right to put in small rooms to access Alexa smart home features. You will need another Alexa product like the show or hub to control smart home devices tho
