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.

    After seeing the capabilities of the Echo, I bought the Echo Dot to expand the system to our bedroom. I plan on buying more of the Echo Dots for other areas of the house.

    Smaller echo is the perfect addition to any household. Put it in any room and alexia is at your exposal to turn on or off lights, set alarms, or tell you the weather.

    Sound is significantly different than the full size echo, but it does the job.

    Excellent little box - got as part of a bundle deal when buying my Netgear Orbi. Great little device - small speaker is ok for low volume radio listening. Only downside would be if you have a power failure Alexa will wake you up complaining of no internet...

    My favorite is being able to tell it to play songs from a certain artist. Works great with the weather and I'm finding new things every day that you can have the echo dot do.

    I got the Dot mainly to speak to my HUE light bulbs. It turns out it's quicker just to use my phone and now I use the dot for weather updates and Spotify. Works well enough – just don't really use it much after the novelty has worn off. Great for the price though.

    This is great! I can now just ask Alexa to play a song and she will usually find it. Another great thing is the Jeopardy game that you can play once a day with 6 new questions.

    The echo is awesome as a fun extra or starting SMART device. I bought this one for my parents. I got it all set up for them and it worked great. Alexa does have a hard time hearing and understanding my parents though so that was frustrating for them.

    If you don't have children and want someone to do something for you i.e. turn off your lights, then this is a must have. Don't believe me? Try and see. You'll fall in love.

    Love the echo dot. We keep it in the kitchen and ask Alexa questions. Much easier that having to type a question for google and then having to look through options.

    This is a fun device, great for shopping lists and listening to music. Takes a little bit to learn commands to get somethings to work. I hooked mine up to some Hue lights and the kids love the color changes and I like being able to turn the lights off with Alexa.

    Bought one for each kid's room; love the ability to drop-in and summon them upstairs instead of yelling. Yes I am just as lazy as the rest of you. JudgementFreeZone.
