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.

    We originally purchased an echo with our Phillips Hue lighting kit. You can control the lights (turn on and off plus dimming) with your voice. The echo is super responsive to voice commands and quick to respond to tasks. We have ended up using a multitude of features such as checking the weather, creating timers, setting up with our wi-fi thermostat so that Alexa can control the indoor temperature, as well as with our smart lighting. We now have 4 Echo Dots in the house and use them daily.

    Great bedroom alarm. Time and temp without a glance. User beware, after power outage, your smart light connected to you Dot comes on and stays on until you tell Alexa to turn it back off.

    It's fun in the early days to ask it the weather, etc, and easier than picking up my phone to ask Siri, but maybe a fad that will wear off? But cheap so ok

    We got this for our daughter for Christmas, she is 37 and mentally challenged. She calls out to Alexia, "How do you spell Cooper?", and it replies to her the correct spelling. Now maybe her text messages will be readable to others! She calls out to Alexia, "what is the weather today?" And Alexia gives the days forecast. Now she knows how to dress to be prepared for the day. Alexia plays music for her also. She is truly enjoying this modern day marvel!!!

    Absolutely love my Echo dot!! We have it in the middle of our apartment (hallway area) and it hears us whether we're in the kitchen or our bedroom. We have found many ways to use it throughout our day.
