Amazon is Crowdfunding Limited-Edition DVF Echo Dots
Laura McQuarrie — July 14, 2021 — Tech
As part of the Build It program, Amazon is introducing limited-edition DVF Echo Dot speakers. There are three new Echo Dot concepts that have been designed by Diane von Furstenberg and the catch is that they will only ship if enough consumers express interest in them within 30 days.
There are three limited-edition prints that can be found through this collaboration and they promise to elevate style in the home. There's one Ikat style, Midnight Kiss and a Twigs pattern. To celebrate this collab, Amazon is donating to Vital Voices, a non-profit selected by Diane von Furstenberg for its work with women leaders.
With these smart speakers, users can do everything from control smart home settings to ask for help, checking the weather and listening to podcasts or music.
