    Can't go wrong with Bose. Everything as expected. Grouped with my family room sound bar to extend sound to my back sunroom.

    I wanted a speaker device that plays music and has Alexa as an option. I did some research online and saw that Bose carried products with this function. I chose this product since it was a Bose. The sound is excellent for my bedroom. I really like to design. When playing a song ,a photo of the album pops up. Quality is excellent. Again, another great product by Bose!

    Great speaker. Works great with my smartphone and a neat feature that it has where you can link another Bose speaker in another room and play the same music.

    I enjoy the quality sound. It is enough to fill one entire room. The download of the Bose application was a little confusing but I was able to work though it.

    Great sound! Set-up was ok. I like that it is now with Google assistant. I am disappointed that Google assistant can not go directly to my SiriusXM stations! It works with preset channels. Go figure?!

    A bit expensive but it has all the options I was looking for. I heart radio, pandora, Amazon music, Deezer, AirPlay, smart speaker. Great sound. Would do a second if it wasn’t so pricy, I guess Bose always is.

    We love this Bose speaker with Alexa! This is the first Alexa we have had and it is so convenient. The sound is AMAZING. It can link with other speakers in the house also.

    You just can't go wrong with Bose. My only issue was that set-up directions were out-dated, and the phone app control was frustrating. We miss the remote control.
