    Most speakers we buy for the shop, get dusty inside and stop working after a few weeks, but not this one. It's portable and wireless so the employees carry it to wherever they need to work. So it's very convenient.

    Love this speaker. Easy to hook up to. Easy to move around. Perfect size. Only small complaint is its not as loud as I thought it would be. Other than that well worth the price. Use it for cookouts, Tailgates and washing vehicles.

    Solid build. Bluetooth is a little finicky being seen right away. Have to turn power on and off a couple of times in order for it to be visible by other devices even with bluetooth button pressed.

    Battery held a charge for about 2 weeks using it for a few hours each day. Was also using the 5A USB to charge phones throughout that time. Took it fishing in the backyard and used the AUX input to play sound for movies from a projector as well. Connected to the speaker via Bluetooth seemlessly from an S10+ to play music from my phone and listened to the radio. "BASS BOOST" is just okay but overall a great speaker. It has the wheels and telescoping handle but at 25lbs its pretty manageable without them. Got it on sale for around $119. I'd buy it again for that price, not sure about full retail though. One negative I've noticed is that the battery status bar shows full after charging for the first time then I noticed it was showing zero battery life on the LED indicator just a short while later. Seems to be fine now but will continue to monitor.

    I have had this speaker for a while. I use it for party’s and my sons baseball games. I loved it so much at first that I bought a second one and we paired them together. They both worked great. Then I noticed one of the speakers wouldn’t hold a charge for longer than an hour. I have no idea why or what happened. We store them indoors and only charge them when they are low on bars. I’d like to get a replacement for the one that won’t hold a charge. All in all this is a good speaker and I have got a lot of use out of it. I must have just got a dud.

    We use it out by the pool all summer. And I’ve sound put out to fill the backyard. Now my pool sounds like we’re having a block party all year. Very reasonably priced. Super easy to connect.

    This machine is great! I bought it for my home, but it became like a portable club. I use it everywhere. Fully charged you can enjoy it up to 75 hours. You'll definitely be the hostess with the most. Everyone wants to buy one! You won't be disappointed.

    Great speaker that's portable and easy to use. Having an internal rechargeable battery makes it awesome to take anywhere. Sound is 7 out of 10. It may be a bit distorted on the louder side. The mic is okay.

    We enjoyed having family movie night and this little guy worked well. All could hear the movie and it is easy to setup and move about. We've been talking about a 2nd one as you can link them together. Hubby wants surround sound - LOL - men!

    It has a good sound overall. The base isn't the best at the loudest but it still packs a decent punch for its size. Fills the room with good sound. Good speaker for its price

    I purchased this speaker with the idea of having it as a shop or garage speaker with the option of using it outside for small gatherings too. Right out of the box you can tell this thing is very solidly built. I have no doubt that this speaker could get knocked around or left out in a shower and still be working perfectly. The build quality is top notch! I also love that it has wheels and a telescoping handle much like a small suitcase has. Makes transporting it around very easy! They also have small rubber covers that fit very snugly over all of the inputs just in case it does get a little wet (which the manufacturer says is OK) On the front panel you have some very easy to operate controls. a large dial for the master volume and a second large dial for the microphone volume. Some preset radio buttons as well as playback controls and input selections as well as a small screen. Its pretty idiot proof to use. I didn't even have to look at the instructions to get it up and running and to get my phone paired to it. It really is very simple to get connected! There is even a NFC connection on the top so you can easily pair it that way. Just set your phone on top over the NFC logo and you're good to go! Next we come to the power and sound quality. Here is where I was left a little disappointed and wanting more. The sound is very middle heavy. Not a lot of crisp definition in the highs or lows. You can turn on the bass boost which does give a good boost of bass. But the lack of good high end makes it sound very unbalanced and muddy. I tried the radio, through Bluetooth, and even a hard wired connection and they all sounded this way. Im thinking maybe the addition of a small EQ or at the very least some bass and treble controls might help this problem a little bit. I was also expecting a little more volume out of this as well. Once you get slightly past the center of the volume it doesn't really seem to get louder, just more muddy and distorted. It sounds best in the first 1/3 of the volume dial. Overall, its a very solidly built speaker, with very average sound quality. For just a garage speaker, or to have music playing at an outdoor party, tailgate, or at the beach it would work just fine. Just dont expect to get any audiophile quality sound out of it. It also comes with a microphone so you can use it as a portable PA system. Which I did test out and that worked very well. It would work perfectly for small gatherings to be able to project your voice.
