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.

    So far so good! I wish amazon will let you choose what name you call it besides Alexa or Amazon. There have been times where Alexa does not know the answer to certain questions or you have to repeat your question a few times so that can be annoying. I purchased the Philips Hue to sync with my dot and it was a very tedious process but eventually got it to work. I'm impressed!

    This device has completely transformed our home life. She has made it so convenient to interact with our electronic gadgets.. rather flipping a switch or pressing the remote control, we speak a command to get the same result. Thx Alexa.

    Good start to introducing Alexa into your home. Only recommended this 2nd generation if it is on sale or you are plugging it into an AVR. If looking for a stand alone speaker, upgrade to the 3rd generation echo dot for a few bucks more.

    Amazing how much info a little ‘Dot’ can provide! I can start the the day with “Good Morning”, get the news and then listen to music while I eat breakfast - periodically stopping to ask ‘Alexa’ a question and/or to define a word in the newspaper.

    I have purchased the Amazon Alexa for my mother, mother in law and myself; we have 2 of them. These gadgets are the best thing since rice pudding. We enjoy Alexa and she is ready to assist at anytime. Everyone should get an Alexa.

    I could not figure out how I would use an Echo Dot before purchase. Now I have 3 in different rooms. It is very inexpensive yet provides a wide range of services. I use the music, news, podcasts, sleep sounds so far. You learn new things to do every day.

    Wow. Just wow. Alexa is SO convenient (and a little creepy). It's certainly a glimpse into what the future of AI is going to do for us! (As long as you don't watch too many science fiction movies. :))
