    The bass is ok, but the peak volume is not that loud. I wanted top use this when I'm working in the garage, but it's not powerful enough to hear.

    I purchased this bluetooth speaker for the beach, however, the ocean sound drowned out the sound. Had to return for something more powerful. Nice for the house, not the beach.

    Pretty good little speaker for the lake or pool. Doesn’t get extremely loud so probably would be best in a smaller area with not too much background noise.

    This rating is based on value for price. Definitely not a music boom box; but great way to stream Sirius news in my car.

    The little boom box worked well for a short time. Now it seems to not hold the charge that long. Don’t know why - but still enjoy it. That is why I am giving it 4 stars.

    Hey, it sounds better than your phone speaker and is pretty cheap. A full charge on the battery only lasts about 4 hours.

    It works good. Use it in my office for podcasts. Not for an audiophile though. That’s the reason I only give it four stars.
