Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the excellent sound quality, encompassing impressive bass and ample volume, as key strengths of the Smart Speaker. Many also praise its ease of use and seamless integration with the Google Assistant. However, some users mention challenges with connectivity and express that the speaker's size is larger than anticipated. The lack of a battery is another recurring point of feedback.

    Not as good as I hoped it would be. Lots of bass, but the treble is lacking. Good sound nonetheless and I do like the voice assistant feature. Perhaps it would sound better with a added subwoofer? Still great price @ under $100 and I do like the pairing mode. I have Sonos products too and if I would have to choose, then Sonos is it for me.

    Love everything about the speakers, and finding them on sale for $79, when the regular price is $229,,,WOW,,, and they sound so good. The combination of wifi and Bluetooth connection is just icing on the cake. I also purchased some Sonos one speakers that are fantastic, but the hk citation ones might have them beat. Very happy ...

    The Harman Kardon brand has been around for many years for a reason. This portable table top speaker gives you the feel of listening to larger speakers and not paying the big speaker price. The bass is incredible! It also has Google Assist and can be connected to other household items like my Roku. Plan to buy another one.

    Great speaker great sound. Replaced my alexa with it and I could not be happier. Only slight complain is that when the volume is high on the speaker it has a hard time listening when you say "hey google". Very happy with this speaker though.

    I needed a Google device and when this unit showed up on the deal of the day for $79.95, I figured I would give it a try. The sound is much better than expected - very close to my Apple HOMEPOD for significantly less money. & of course the Google assistant is way better than Siri - sorry Apple.

    Great sound! This speaker sounds great and works as advertised every time. It replaced a smaller Harmon Kardon speaker we’ve had for a couple of years. I got it on sale. I probably would not have purchased at the full advertised price.

    This smart speaker has beautiful sound. Was easy to setup although when the power goes out to my wireless router I have to jump through some hoops in the Google App to reconnect. Got it at a great price as a daily deal....

    Nice Google Assistant speaker. Got it at a great price at BB. Sound is a bit bass heavy but it can fill a large room with good volume. Overall happy with this purchase.

    Great sounding speaker but limited capabilities because it’s tied to google. Returned it for a Home Pod. HomePod works with Apple Music, Spotify and amazon music. This speaker works with Spotify and you tube music.

    I have connected this to a TV via bluetooth and only problem I found is I have to turn up the volume around 65 to 70% to get enough sound output to be able to hear the sound clearly. Sound quality is great.

    It looks good, it has a nice sound, although it distorts the bass and what I don't like the most is that it doesn't seem to be 40 watts, it doesn't sound so strong.

    I’m a die hard Sonos fan, and that is the best but it’s expensive. This H/K speaker is great for those of us that are on a budget. I hooked it up to my secondary exterior garage and the sound quality is excellent

    Bought this speaker for what i thought was a portable speaker to use at work but it needs to be plugged in to use. The sound is still incredible for its size.
