Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the Home Max Smart Speaker's sound quality, particularly its bass and volume. Many also found it easy to set up and use, praising the Google Assistant integration. However, some customers noted that the speaker's size and weight are significant drawbacks, and a few experienced issues with Bluetooth connectivity. The price point was also a source of some negative feedback.

    I used to have a much more expensive sound bar that eventually wore down. The sound quality from this feels about on par, at least to my ear (mainly tv and spotify use).

    This speaker is large and heavy but that explains how it can produce such a space filling sound. Seriously, this thing is for large rooms. It will be over kill in a bed room.

    I didn’t want to spend this much for a speaker. After hearing it with the powerful bass, it is my favorite way to listen to music in my house. Got to hear it to believe it.

    I have to say Google is already kicking Amazon's butt when it comes to smart devices. And Home Max provides a sound quality that has never been produced by any Echo device.

    Great sound quality for a single speaker, fills up the room. Needs to be at or near full volume to get the full experience though. Sound quality isn’t great at low volumes.

    Getting it hoked up took a couple of times. I wish it had HDMI or something besides the headphone port to plug my TV into. I would be nice to use it as a sound bar. It does work thru the headphone jack pretty.
