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.

    I bought this echo dot for my home for weather and news updates. Turns out my 4 yr old loves to ask it questions as well. Once doing more research it turns out that Alexa can play educational games and my daughter loves it. One of the best investments I've purchased in the last year.

    Great for music listening. Alexa still has issues understanding what I’m saying though, and it can get frustrating.

    The Echo Dot is nice for things like weather and sports scores. I don't have Amazon Prime so I can't ask it to play specific songs so that was really a minus for me. It also gets a little cumbersome having to ask to open a skill for a specific category. It's ok overall, I guess it just wasn't exactly what I thought it would be.

    Alexa’s are great. Can’t go wrong. But if you want to use it as a speaker for music, take a look at Sonos with built in Alexa’s. You get an Alexa and a great speaker. Wish I would have known about that before I filled my house with normal Alexa’s.
