    I bought this speaker for My iPad. It works great via Bluetooth. The iPad speakers are horrible so It's nice to listen to music and movies so other people can hear. For the money it's worth it.

    I didn't know how to work it at first but it is easy to figure out. The volume is great and overall one of the best products I ever owned.

    I have an old Ipod and its not bluetooth and wanted to use it at work. I tried several speakers, that were bluetooth and claime to be able to be used by non bluetooth. None of them had the little jack, had an usb port. On my way home Tuesday I stopped off at the Best Buy in Springfield, VA and talked to an associate. He was really helpful and nice and in the end suggested this little tiny speaker. I had some serious doubts. I took it to work on Wednesday and it plays really nice, but I do want to get a second one

    This is the Bluetooth speaker my niece wanted for the holidays. She loves it. Not quite audiophile equipment, but for a tween, its perfect.

    Charging problems,Lights are great, good play time

    I've had this about 8 months and worked great at first. It had more than 8 hours of play time. I love the light changing effects on it. But after about 6 months it started giving me trouble charging. I would have to position the cord just right to get it to charge. After that worked for awhile it started getting to where I would have to place something heavy on top of the cord near the end that connects to the speaker to get it to charge. Recently it has stopped charging all together when I try doing these things or when it does charge it takes alot longer than it previously did to charge. It will sometimes start to charge and a few minutes later stops. When you try to turn the volume up on your device to the max it will start crackling the sound on the speaker. Also sometimes when it's playing if I bump the cord at all connected to my ipod it stops playing all together.

      It sounds like the charging cable could be damaged. If you have another cable with a micro USB plug you can try it. iHome

    Works well, but does not last long.

    This speaker was compact, attractive, rechargable and had quite the volume and sound quality for such a small unit--for the time it worked. I used it with Spotify on my phone almost everyday as a substitute to my car radio, or while on the clock at work. Roughly around the two month mark it simply stopped working. It powers on, and syncs to my phone, but no longer plays any sound, including the start up sounds. I liked it, but it didn't last very long However, my coworker has the same unit in black and his continues to function. Maybe I'm just unlucky

    I picked up this item to listen to music while in the shower! It has amazing sound and bass. However, battery tends to die and needs recharging, but it's great for what I need it to do.

    It sounds perfect. With a Bluetooth interface and an auxiliary input, this iHome iBT72 IBT72BC mini speaker allows you to listen to music stored on both Bluetooth-enabled devices and devices with a 3.5mm headphone jack.

    Didn't last 2 months

    I initially bought one in early November 2015.. It suddenly stopped working in early January-not to mention that it only sat at my work desk and was rarely moved around. I returned it and replaced it with with another one (same exact kind). Well 2 months after having it .. Guess what, same problem;it suddenly stopped working without cause or negligent handling. I returned it back and was told by the Best Buy worker that he sees these particular speakers returned quite often.

    Disappointed - Description Not Accurate

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Very disappointed! I needed a small speaker to listen to phone call recordings on my laptop at work. This item clearly states that it has an auxiliary input that allows you to listen to music via devices with a 3.5mm headphone jack. It also says that a 2-in-1 USB charging/3.5mm audio connection cable is included. Neither is this case! The only cord that came with this is the USB charging cord. Unfortunately this will be going back and is not recommended unless you are simply looking for a Bluetooth speaker! Best Buy should look into updating this item description, product features and what's included!

      There were three versions of the iBT72 speaker. The last version is strictly Bluetooth. We regret any confusion this may have caused. iHome
