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 enjoy learning how to use Amazon Dot! I bought for my husband as a birthday gift since he's always looking things up on his phone. I thought he could just "Ask Alex!" I'm excited for us to learn about how to use it in our home. I think we'll both benefit.

    I have found the Echo Dot to work very well for applications that don’t require HiFi audio. It is inexpensive enough to be able to put one in most rooms for Alexa use, and it also is very useful as a wireless intercom through Alexa.

    Got this on a spur of the moment, sounded like something really cool to have, just not sold on its' functionality and if I need it day to day. So that is why I give an average rating. It does seem to work, but sometimes comes on for no reason. All in all I think product is adequate.

    Alexa is a little frustrating because she so often cannot find the answer to your question but she comes in handy and at under $30, you can't go wrong. We bought one (or two) for everyone in our immediate family, including my 74 yo Mother. Now we can reach out to each other without our cell phones.
