Customer Ratings & Reviews

Seems well made, Bluetooth worked well. I don't get as much volume as I would like, but I prefer it louder than many would.

Satisfied with item. Decent sound. Not to heavy to carry around. Hand crank is pretty much useless for powering.

Product seems to be good with the features that it has but unfortunately the battery came dead on arrival and I have not been able to get a response from the ION warranty support.

This is a compact and light speaker but awesome sound quality! Completely satisfied!

Exceptional sound Quality and small design made transferring a BREEZE*

I was really excited about this purchase, but the first one I purchased would not hold a charge, even after charging it for 12+ hours. I returned it and tried purchasing another one, and the same exact thing happened. Best Buy must have gotten a bad batch of these, or something, because both speakers would not hold a charge despite being advertised as a portable speaker.

This is a good blue tooth music I like this one . I will recommend to friends and family this one .

It is great in a pinch especially with the solar powered and hand crank options. The aux function hass a little static but otherwise bluetooth works great.

Good product better than expected, used 3 days continuously on 1st charge. Good sound

Great buy! Nice for outside work very durable an waterproof!

This little box is not as big as I expected, yet it puts out plenty of sound and GOOD sound! Bought it for the motorhome so we could track weather alerts and to provide back-up for charging devices. I linked (bluetooth) my iPod to it and was impressed with the sound so think it will get more use than I initially thought.

Bought as a gift for my 21-year-old son who does a good deal of camping with friends along with other outdoor activities. He loves it and says he is the envy of his friends. He loves the sound along with charging functionality as his outdoor stuff is often well removed from ready access to power outlets.

Nice radio! Sound is decent! I like the fact that it is solar powered!

So far so good. I purchased this unit because of the ability to charge cell phones or electronic devices. Kinetic energy is great!

Bought this because of the capability to charge Things through USB. The ability to charge battery by outlet, crank, or solar makes this a handy item. Having 4 bands available AM, FM, Weather, and Short Wave gives it a robust usefulness. The ability to use it as a blue tooth speaker and small PA are also helpful.

Sold as a " portable" "survival" unit. Went to charge my iPhone and found out (too late to return) that it drains the fully charged ION in less than 20 minutes and only increased the phones charge by 15%. Might be useful as a portable radio but nothing else

I bought this because it has a solar panel and a hand crank to help charge in emergencies. It has Weather Band radio which is also nice for emergencies. The hand crank seemed like a nice feature, but it really doesn't charge the battery all that well. I haven't tried the solar panel yet, but hopefully that works better than the hand crank.

Neat idea but it takes 16 plus hours for a full charge.

Ion survival scout radio is a very good investment when it comes to emergency situations. Clear sound and looks good outside. The only thing I noticed is that it takes a long time to charge. Other than that I love that I spent $49.00 for it. I recommend this product.

Was searching a long time for a product with the list of features this one hads. Wanted to love this product, but it just wouldnt hold a charge. Had is plugged into the wall for over 24 hours and kept charging. If i unplugged it, it wouldnt even go on and the battery indicator light would ocme on. Read in the manual that if the unit stays uncharged for too long it could affect the battery life...maybe I just got one that was sitting on the shelf for too long? Anyway, returned it instead of exchanging it for fear or haivng to make another trip to the store for another faulty unit. While I did have it plugged in though, all the features worked as described. The emergency radio weather station worked great and even kicked on when we happened to have a flash-flood warning for the 24-hour period I had it plugged in. However, it wouldn't have warned me if the electricity had gone out since the battery was dysfunctional and the unit needed to be plugged into the wall. This item is great, as long as it works. Too bad -- got it at a great price on sale, too!
