Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5Pros mentioned:Battery, Sound qualityI got it as a present and at first I thought: hm, too small to be good, I thanked my pal, but I didn’t pay any attention to it. But WHEN I TURNED IT ON, oh my THIS IS QUALITY SOUND! ACTUALLY it’s better than my other Bluetooth speaker, which surprised me, since that one’s a big name brand (Bose color sound) and this is a brand I Had never heard much about. With a couple of days using it I learned some cool things this baby can do (charge phone, it FLOATS!) and most importantly THE SOUND IS A LOT CLEARER AND BETTER than the Bose. I’m very impressed with this brand, is it American??? Text me in the answer if you know, thanks

Nice little speaker
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Nice speaker. Looks like the battery life is as advertised. I like the additional button on the new models that allows you to use alexa. The sound is fantastic and I was able to find a mount on amazon to attach this to my bike. Great speaker. My only knock on it is that the strobe to music function did not work with my phone. Does it deserve 5 stars? no. 4.8 stars, yes, so I rounded up.

Great product

Quality4 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I bought my first one a couple years ago and it still works and sounds great. So, I bought my daughter one and she loves it too! Why be tempted with the more expensive "other" brands when, in my opinion, this one sounds just as good for it's category ? I truly believe you can't go wrong here. Great product and style.
