    I love this! I take it everywhere. Out on the patio in the evenings. Up to the lake. Great to listen to music in the kitchen. The sound quality is amazing!

    I purchased this Bose Soundlink Color Portable Bluetooth Speaker II on May 2, 2020. Had some initial start-up difficulty but got that resolved. Love the sound and it links quickly with my source but the volume controls on the Soundlink do not work (in either direction). I went through all the iterations suggested by the Bose community forums to no avail. I am linking it Bluetooth to a Paxess Toslink/SPDIF Bluetooth TX/RX that is plugged into the stereo line output of my Onkyo receiver. I finally contacted Bose and they authorized a return/replacement which I have received. Same problem, fixed volume and no control up or down. Frustrating, to say the least. No fix in sight either. Bummed.

      Hey George, it's great to hear you enjoy the sound quality of your speaker.

      It's strange that your unable to use the volume controls, even after a replacement. Have you tried connecting your speaker to any other devices, such as a smartphone? If so, does the problem still happen? It's possible that the connection path it slightly complicated compared to a traditional Bluetooth connection, and therefore the communication cannot be made.

      Thanks,
      Charlotte - Bose Customer Support bose

    This is the best thing I have ever bought for myself. I originally wanted a radio so I could clean out my garage. This little unit goes everywhere with me. Excellent quality, Bose has never let me down!

    Bose always has great quality and thus did not disappoint. I already had one in black and bought this as a gift for mom on Mother's Day. She also loves it and now gets to blast her music in the house.

    This is my second Bose Speaker. The first generation I had was amazing. Great sounding. I went and got this one only because my other one went missing. As always Bose puts out a great product every time.

    I bought one for myself and then two more as gifts for people who heard mine and loved it. The battery easily lasts the 8 hours that Bose claims. I can't recommend this speaker highly enough.

    This is a decent little speaker, but I expected it to sound slightly better with the Bose name. What I really like though is that they updated so that it's blue tooth enabled so I can listen to calls on it. The color block speaker I got a couple years ago didn't have that feature. Overall it's a good speaker.
