Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought this for my wife and she loves it. Great sound, easy to use and couldn't be pleased more. Big sound for such a small product.

Love this speaker. It sounds great from anywhere in the house, looks great, and I love the myriad ways in which you connect to it-Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, Aux, or through the app. The only negatives is that you can’t link your Apple Music account to it (but AirPlay is a good workaround) and there’s no clock on the display screen.

As other reviewers have mentioned the sound quality is quite good as would be expected with Bose. I do wish however that they had included an equalizer option to adjust sound settings but my biggest complaint is that it will not network with other Amazon Echo products, which is frustrating. I contacted Bose and they said the networking option may be addressed in a future software update.

good sound. overpriced for what you get. no instructions with item .Bose app stinks .have to use soundbar remote and app to operate all three items that are advertised to all work together as one . Very misleading. Not user friendly.

I saw all the other reviews regarding how great the sound is coming from such a small package. It is still better than what I was expecting. Very impressed.

Fantastic sound. Exceptionally sensitive microphone (if not careful it will turn on from instructions to the Alexa in a different room). Does not play nice with other Alexa speakers (turn on all does not turn this one on).

Excellent sound and volume, easy to set up with phone blue/tooth. Looks nice on bookshelf without screaming "speaker". Haven't tried it with our Alexa yet.

These speakers sound fantastic! Sure the price is steeper than I’d like but the sound quality makes up for that- plus you can link certain speakers!

I wish I could give this a better review. The setup is easy; the sound is good; but the Google Assistant feature only half-works, even though it is prominently featured in the advertising. Do NOT buy this speaker if you use YouTubeMusic to stream music. If you do, the Google Assistant feature will not work; the only thing you can do is to use a Bluetooth connection, making this about the most expensive Bluetooth speaker on the planet. I'm keeping it, but only in the hope that Bose and Google can reach some accomodation...

Good sound and quality, expensive it's a Bose. It's a pain when trying to connect it to my phone's Bose Music App. I need to reset this speaker everyday to have it connected. There are other many options. I would not recommend this to a friend.

With 6 presets, that you can control with the speaker and with the Bose phone app, this is a great sounding smart speaker. Sound fills the room. The only drawback - the controls on the speaker are no backlit and are too subtle in appearance. Bright light is required to see the controls.

Very nice Bose speaker. Easy to use and hook up. The sound is clean and crisp even when turned up the whole way. Alexa works great.

Works great for our office and has a very clean full sound that makes the day go by quickly !

This was a refurbished product that works GREAT! Glad to get a quick delivery before Xmas. My guests marveled over the quality of sound coming from the small machine

I got this as a good deal as open box excellent condition. It works perfect to fill our hall room. Connects effortless to all devices in my house

We really like this speaker. It sounds fantastic at all volumes. I’m especially impressed at the full range of rich sound at low volumes. We also have a sound bar 700 and the biggest complaint is how the two sync or don’t at times. Still a pretty big fan of both.

I came to think that I would never find what I was looking for, because of the amount of money I had. But oh I was this bellesa of equipment that at first sight deceived by its size. It sounds loud and clear. The music is heard with great clarity even when the volume is high. It ennates me.

Remarkably powerful speaker that will accommodate Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Excellent speaker if your not interested in portability. Speaker is not battery powered - you have to plug it in to 110v outlet to make it work.

As far as I am concerned, this speaker sounds fantastic. I am very happy with this purchase. I love using its Apple AirPlay 2 feature to connect it with my other wifi speakers that have Apple AirPlay 2 as well. If you are a Bose fan, buy it. The Bose app is great too!

We've enjoyed many Bose products. Recently bought the Bose 700 sound bar and couldn't believe how nice it sounds for TV and music. Decided to try the Bose Home speaker 500. Just as we expected, it's excellent well. Whether it's inside home or out on patio it sounds fantastic.
