    Great sound! Very versatile, easy straps to beach umbrella, shower curtain for some jams while taking long showers and it’s totally waterproof.

    I bought this for my daughter for Christmas and it was better quality than I expected. It was a last minute gift - but the sound is great. She is a new teenager and loves it!

    I've had many Blutooth speakers and this little power house has them all beat. As soon as you pick it up you can tell this speaker is quality. Worth the money.

    It may be small, but the sound quality is really nice. The strap is attached to the speaker itself and is nicely secure and simple to use.

    Mini boom box, huge stereo sound

    I have always considered Bose speakers to be deceptively good. They aren't the most configurable so I've read past reviews from audiophiles being somewhat critical that they couldn't make the speakers meet their subjective tastes. I appreciate good sound but am not that user. Bose is designed for easy use and solid sound. This Soundlink Max speaker is really a treat. It's styled after a small boom box. It's only a speaker, via Bluetooth or aux port, but sits like a fun stereo. The grills for the drivers are all hard so no worry of tearing. The edge of the box is rubberized which is fine, but I could see it potentially being sticky as it ages, but I could be mistaken. The handle is comfortable and soft and is connected with braided nylon like rope which is a fun touch. The companion app is free and the Google play store and Apple app store both have it. It was easy and smooth to connect the speaker to both an android phone and an iPhone. The Bose app allows for a multi connection setup so transfer of music was seamless between the devices. There is a three band equalizer in the app too and my tweaking of it did produce detectable changes to the sound but it was not extremely customizable. This would be where someone might ding it, but I was able to tweak it to my liking. Overall the sound is true to Bose' reputation, full, bass rich, the lows, mids and highs all feel substantial, and the sound is not sacrificing tone for power. Considering the size of this device, I'm really surprised by the volume. It totally punches above its size and while it's not the cheapest Bluetooth speaker, it is clearly a high end speaker. I would say there is a place for cheaper options, but if you want a weather resistant, high end sound, this Soundlink Max by Bose is worth the price.

      I'm glad that you're impressed by the well-rounded sound and volume performance of the SoundLink Max Bluetooth speaker, Eric! I'm also happy to hear that you discovered the EQ option in the Bose app, and were able to tweak the speaker's EQ configurations to customize the sound to your liking. I hope you enjoy using your new SoundLink Max speaker! Warm regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support bose

    size doesn’t matter, when the quality of sound is this good. My go to speaker for watching a movie on my iPad. The suspension could get more creative and be multipurpose.

    Poor Customer Service

    Really poor service. I purchased Bosed Soundlink Max online, an open box in "excellent" condition for a few dollars off the retail price. Excellent is described as "as new" with all packaging, accessories, etc. When I arrived, they brought out a dirty speaker with no accessories, no charger, and no packaging that they had glued multiple stickers all over. I traveled several towns over for what i thought was a deal which turned out to be false advertising. "Sorry" by employees but no alternative or solution offered. Of course I refused it & now the item as new has increased $100. So inept.
