Customers are saying

Customers highly value the Boom Jacket Bluetooth Speaker's sound quality, battery life, and durability. Many also appreciate its waterproof design and convenient size. While some find the bass lacking and the weight a bit substantial, the positive feedback on other features outweighs these concerns. The speaker's ability to charge mobile devices is also a frequently cited advantage.

    When calls come in I can hear fine but the calling party gets a lot of background noises. The music sound is all good.

    Great sounding speaker, will not stay connected via Bluetooth with phone. It's been a pain in the butt, we will be changing it for another one and try again.

    Bought this on sale. Great buy for the price, but not worth it if paying over $100. Average sound at best ,but for the price I got, I cant complain.

    Sound quality isn't very good. Volume is good for the size. Haven't tried getting it wet, so no idea how waterproof it actually is.

    Didn't work for me

    I bought this speaker on a Deal of the Day, because I was looking for a Bluetooth speaker to pair with my Echo (inside) and use outside on the deck. I trust the brand, and it would have likely been ideal if it would have paired with Echo. So, it was a no go for me. I took it back and bought a Harmon Kardon (more expensive, but bought at an excellent sale price) which paired quickly and sounds great. Bottom line, if you want to pair with Echo, this is not the speaker you want. Otherwise, it just might be a good choice.

    Speaker works great by the pool, doesn't work too great in the pool, water causes the signal to be bad... Other than that its great.

    I have mainly used this product in the shower room for players to connect their phone to. No complaints. I don't know if I would pay full price for it. I got it on sale.

    It's a good speaker but it doesn't stays floating. It starts to get water and it starts to sink in and the music stops playing till you get it out of the water.

    I liked the look of this unit and the sound at the store. When i got it home it did not have the range i was looking for. It seemed like it was less then 10ft from playing unit. I think it would be a very stable unit . I was just unimpressed with the range. I returned this for the JBL 2+. I am happy now.

    Water resistant? Yes. Sound quality? Poor! I thought this speaker would have good sound since the casing is durable and well made. I tried adjusting the volume setting bit sound is low and pitchy. Don't be fooled by the awesome look. Really, that's all they're selling you here. Sound is super poor.
