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.

    This works great with our TV, lights, vaccum and fire stick. The ease of use and the simplicity of the design really accents the functionality.

    I like having Alexa at my side by my desk during the day and in the kitchen in the evenings where our family gathers. Instead of searching on the internet for weather, news, recipes, calendar events (current or future), we simply ask Alexa. No matter what we're doing, we do not have to stop in our tracks to go to the PC or phone to search for answers. We simply have to speak. I can even ask her to add grocery reminders to my list and appointments to my calendar without lifting a finger ! I'm looking forward to any upgrades in store for Alexa's knowledge base. For now, she's a great little sidekick to have around.....saves me time!

    This was the best $39 product I have bought in a long time. The voice recognition is great and it works well with my home automation. Buy this and you won't be disappointed.
