Customers are saying

Customers commend Chromecast Audio for its ease of use, excellent sound quality, and reasonable price. Many appreciate its seamless streaming capabilities and compatibility with other Google devices. While some users wish for a longer range and a built-in battery, the overwhelmingly positive feedback centers on the device's ease of setup and superior audio performance compared to Bluetooth alternatives. The convenience of using WiFi for audio streaming is also frequently highlighted.

    Over all the chrome cast is nice, but it's down fall is that you can only connect to it when you are on the Wi-Fi and if you only have the Google app

    Works as advertised. Needs more apple support but that's not their fault. I'm using the app AllCast for my music. Much better than bluetooth streaming, uses your wifi.

    Great for multi speaker wireless music. But Limited inexpensive way to listen to music throughout our home audio system.

    Works as you'd expect having experience with Chromecasts. Wish there was an option to cast straight to it via bluetooth and not have to use wifi.

    It’s so close to being perfect. If it would just mirror the google home when connected to the same network it’d be a real game changer
