    Hearing nothing but static

    Have connected this device to my new Denon receiver (for use on our pool deck outside) using a new Bluetooth transmitter/adapter the Best Buy Rep recommended and even though the speaker states "Connected!" once I've followed the instructions, I only hear static from the speaker (even when located adjacent to the receiver). Still working to figure out the problem but directions are very limited for Denon receiver and wireless speaker!

    Misleading packaging

    We decided to purchase this speaker because the box says it is waterproof and it was solar charged. When we got it home and read the instruction booklet, it says to bring it in during heavy rain. Well that's not waterproof! We didn't want to have to worry about whether the rain was going to damage it. That is the whole point of buying a speaker for the purpose of leaving it outside. So we returned it. The sound quality was poor too.

    Worst Speakers

    Bought two of these speakers. Took them home charged them up and started using them. Within 15 minutes one just completely stopped working. Ordered another one; got it, charged it up and starting using the pair again. Within one day the speaker I originally biught as a pair stopped holding a charge at all and had to be plugged in to use. These are the worst product I have ever bought.

    I bought a pair and within 2 weeks one speaker developed significant distortion and the other would complain of low battery and shutdown within 15 min even after being fully charged on A/C overnight. Going back to the store.

    Bought 2 speakers to link up. Could get them to do that 1 time. ION tech support recommended to return them. Shipping costs $84 but ION doesn't pay for return shipping, so now I have to pay 30% more than the original price for the speakers to get them replaced.

    Product looked really good. But it wasn't loud enough. Everything sounded really faint. We had to return this item and go with another kind of speaker for music in our back yard

    Brilliant speaker - fab quality!

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

    I was a little hesitant to buy these since I was not able to find any reviews online but the gamble paid off. I bought two of these speakers. They are very solid (heavy) and well made. The sounds quality on these speakers is amazing, we have JBL and Bose speakers for other parts of our house and I really can't tell the difference in sound quality. The fact that they are wireless and self charging is amazing, what a brilliant idea! I can play music from my phone and it comes straight out of the speaker. I have the speakers outside in my large garden and they really help to drown out the noise from the passing traffic. Possibly my best purchase of 2016 so far. 5 STARS!

    Great option for outdoor speakers

    These speakers are terrific. They are easily paired together and produce more than enough volume. We hosted memorial day on an inland lake and with the boat noise you could still hear the music. With them being wireless also meant you could move one whenever you wanted to another part of the yard. I did my fair amount of research to find speakers I was willing to buy and these matched everything I wanted.

    I love my Solar Stones. I've had them just over a year now. They have incredible stereo sound and I can place them wherever I want in my backyard depending on where I am or entertaining. They have great volume and clarity,No wires to deal with and they always charge themselves without fail.

    Exceeded Expectations

    I was pretty skeptical of these but was pleasantly surprised. I purchased 2 and linking them was simple and they always link up again whenever I turn them on. Bluetooth connection to iPhone and adapter for TV was easy and switching between the 2 devices has not been an issue. Very impressed with the sound quality. Can't really rate the solar charging b/c I typically keep them plugged in under my patio when not in use but move them closer to our pool when we want to listen to music or watch TV. They're great! (I also was able to get Best Buy to match Amazon's price when I called Customer Service).
