    Best boombox in the market hands down, full blast volume last about 9.5 hours!! and at medium volume last about 24 hours I know these things because I work at a warehouse where I select boxes about at 15 plus hours some nights. I highly recommend this to anyone . Worth the money 100 percent!! I'm officially happy.

    Great product! The battery is long lasting and has enough outlets to plug your phone to charge. There’s two modes on it as well (indoors and outdoors) which makes a huge difference when listening to your music! I’d recommend getting the warranty as well. I’ve owned pretty much all the speakers and they eventually need the warranty.

    I have the smaller JBL 3 it sounds good but didn't quite make the grade for the outdoors. So I bought this JBL boombox and wow what a difference. The bluetooth worked awesome from well over 30 feet away and the sound was nice. The outdoor/indoor switch on the boom box work as designed. Love it glad I bought it and recommend.

    Great sound and decent battery life. It may seem a bit big to carry, but it’s not that heavy. The only discrepancy is that the flap to get to the ports is difficult to open.

    It's good loud amazing bass is good for the size problem is that the price tag is a little too high for the sound quality but it is a portable speaker so it's hard to compare

    This JBL portable bluetooth speaker it's just amazing, it has unbelievable sound, it doesn't even distortion when playing the loudest!!!!!. Battery lasts for hours, mine lasted more than a week, and that's using at least 2 to 3 hours per day. Excellent quality, you have to buy this speaker, you will love it for sure!!!.

    I love JBL’s line of portable speakers. I have owned 2 JBL Charges’s and now the BoomBox. Theses speakers are durable, have amazing sound, and long battery life. You can also use them to charge your phone or other devices. I won’t buy any other brand when it comes to portable speakers.

    Great sound, great battery, easy to connect, all it really needs is an equalizer to tone down the bass if you’re listening to something that doesn’t need it,

    Awesome sounds as for clarity not very loud though!!! The boombox is heavy though not so light to tote around. Battery life is so so. Overall I am satisfied, I work in a manufacturing setting and I can hear my music well at work still over the noise.

    We use this boombox outdoors by the pool almost everyday. It's loud, great bass, great overall sound. We have even left it outside a few times by mistake and even in the rain and it keeps on trucking. A full charge will last us the whole day at the pool and into the night.

    I know this speaker is pricey but buy once cry once. This thing puts out the music like you wouldn’t believe, and last a long time between charges. We take it to the farm because there is no power and rock out why we work. If you love music, this is the one you want.

    This thing is very cool. Extremely loud and enough battery to play and keep my phone charged for hours. I use as a AUX speaker with some electronic instruments and the sound really is amazing for a portable box this size... it fits the shoulder well (in classic 80s style!). JBL BOOMBOX FTW!

    I have a charge 3 which was discontinued for upgrading to another product...I love my charge 3...but I love my JBL boombox better...the boombox has massive base and alot better musical clarity than I expected...the JBL boombox is a high quality, durable piece of audio equipment.

    Hours of great music. Have two of these and they sound great. The pairing connection between the two is dissapointing. Tried updates and app. Work if not more than 15 ft apart. Looks like JBL has new pairing tech with new version so mine are prob obsolete.

    Highs, mids, and bass are perfectly balanced. This thing thumps hard no matter what genre. The price was a little bit off-putting, but after playing some of my favorite tunes, I will be getting another one. My buddy has a boombox and a charge 3 paired together and they sound amazing...SUPER PRODUCT JBL !!!!!

    I’ve had this speaker for about a month now and I’ve used it about everyday. The speaker quality on this boom box is amazing. Along with the bass is fun-nominal. It’s by far my favorite portable speaker I’ve purchased and with the discounted price it has right now. It is totally worth it.

    Believe the Hype. This thing sounds ridiculous. Nothing even comes close to clarity and bass. Can easily replace a full system and drive a party outside or inside. Pair it other JBLs with connect plus feature for even greater coverage.

    Absolutely love the JBL boombox! Easy to connect to different devices. The sound is Amazing! It is clear and has a good amount of bass too. The battery is one of the best I’ve come across on a portable Bluetooth speaker. I can listen to it at a loud volume all day long without charging it.

    I had seen the extreme in action tailgating before a concert, and loved the sound! I went to purchase one for myself and ended up getting the boom box, and I’m glad I did! The battery lasts forever, and my phone, tablet, etc connects to Bluetooth instantly! Great product!
