I needed this speaker to play Christmas music for a living Nativity with animals that I planned for our school. I saved a playlist on my music app and easily paired my tablet with it. I charged up the speaker and placed it and the tablet behind the Nativity and set it to play the playlist. For 4 hours it played and the battery light didn't even appear drained. I also used the microphone to make an announcement and it did the job!

My girlfriend and I bought this because it has a radio receiver in it, we use it in the back of the truck when we go to the drive in where they transmit the sound over the radio airwaves. We can Bluetooth our music it to it while we wait on the movie to start. The sound is excellent and we have no problems picking up the radio transmission. We’ve taken it out to bonfires as well and are totally happy with the purchase. Being rechargeable is the other big plus for this item, it will last several hours, we have never ran the battery completely down. I highly recommend.

This unit works as advertised and the sound is great. I used it indoors and the sound can fill a big room. The sound quality is excellent and the battery life is more than I need. It's the largest Bluetooth speaker I've ever seen. It has a durable case that includes a rugged handle. Bluetooth link is flawless.

Picked it up for a gathering that I needed a PA and music. Perfect for a room size that held about 50 People. Mic for the PA is relatively softer sounding. The kids liked it because the used it as a Karaoke system off their phones (blue tooth). Very portable and battery life holds up really well. In a nutshell, portable, not the loudest (50W) but perfect sounds compared to pocket speakers for listening to music.

We purchased this to be a music player for our parade float. It has pretty good sound even at full volume with very little distortion. There are no wires to play with and it even has a microphone that can be used for a public address system or more. The battery is said to last several hours but we have only used it for 1 hour at a time so far. It is light weight and easy to carry around.

This is my second ION speaker, the first one was stolen after a party. These things are amazing and allow for a lot of bang for your buck. The bluetooth connection is excellent and these get loud. The lightweight and tough body makes it very easy to position. I have been very pleased with this purchase.

I bought thus for my wife to listen to her music all around the house, inside and out. It connects and stays connected via Bluetooth effortlessly, and stays connected. Very very loud, and decent sound quality. She loves it, and I highly recommend it for a portable speaker for just about any use!

I bought this to use at a wedding and I use it everywhere. On the patio, at the lake, at neighborhood picnics and bonfires. It is light weight, battery last more than 7 hours and has good sound. The kids like that they can sing in to the mic along with there favorite music.

I bought two of these as Christmas gifts for my teenage sons and they are the life of the party! The battery holds charge superbly, the sound output and bass kicks, and they love the feature that allows them to link the speakers and stream the same music!

I like the battery life, sound, and ease of use. I also like the radio option. The only problem is the Bluetooth connection is not always strong especially with my Android phone. Laptop connection is pretty good. I have not tried apple products.

Just got this machine to use for a retirement party. Worked like a dream. Loved that it has a rechargeable battery and Bluetooth. The sound is loud enough for a room filled with 60+ People. Great value for the price.

I bought this for my daughter softball team and it turns out our dug out Dad was a huge fan that it was a must ever game! Sound is quality, it’s durable and not heavy. Perfect sound box for the fields!
