Sound is amazing!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sounds is amazing and will fill a room quite well. Although it is not super heavy it is not really portable and must always be plugged in. Easy to setup and Bose quality.

Bose 500
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A full audio sound for the room. Bluetooth worked great. Note: This is not a mobile device. Requires you to plug into the wall.

Generally unimpressed.
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is as expected with Bose. After six+ months of nearly daily use in a home office, I can say I am otherwise not at all impressed. Wifi connectivity is abysmal - at best. Music will inexplicably start to cut in and out, have static sounds in the background, and frequently just not play at all. The unit will lock up displaying the app logo you're trying to play from and require the age old unplug/plug back in to reset. I purchased this to replace an old Sounddock and truly wish I bit the bullet and upgraded to Sonos. I will surely replace this before too much longer.

Excellent speaker with sound from all angles
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this Bose speaker for a 500 square foot room we use for events in my home and mounted it in the center of the room from the ceiling. Gives perfect 360 music across the entire room.

Needs more supported streaming services
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound quality but, i was using it with google assistant and mainly to listen to audio. There were only a couple of streaming services supported. Youtube music was not supported which was very disappointing.

Bose speaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Once again Bose has a great product. Awesome sound and easy to work
I would recommend this to a friend Love the audio quality!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although a bit bulky and wired, this speaker is not totally convenient, but it totally rocks! I have it hooked-up to my Nest Hubs and it's a smart speaker now! Love the audio quality!!
I would recommend this to a friend10/10
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely worth it. Had friends over and everyone complimented the speaker. Then volume buttons do have their own mind of working or not but flawless integration to phone so I just use my phone volume instead.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat sound with Alexa built in!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I will buy another 1 or 2 of these to put in other locations around the house and possibly 1 for the office. This creates a room full of music and then has Alexa waiting to answer any question that you may during the day.
