    I bought this for the tv in my semi truck and I'm pleased with it. It has great sound for the purpose I bought it for. I could see this as a possible purchase for a bathroom or small child's room but not for larger rooms

    I recently just broke my mini lifejacket and decided to go with a bigger speaker this time around. I love this brand and have always bought these speakers because they are built to take a beating. Love this dang thing so much.

    I have dropped this speaker more than once and it doesn't skip a beat. The only problem I have had is the re-connecting(Bluetooth) when I have gone out and came back into range.

    It's a nice wireless speaker. It has good distance but it seem like sound was softer when farther away. It's works for what I need it to do.

    My daughter really likes the ruggedness of the speaker. She's already taken on hiking trips and it's been pounded and wet! Great device.

    Good sound output for the size and the cost. We use this in a garage area and this does the job! The size is optimal for the space and I have no complaints.
