    Got this as a Christmas item for a family member and I still have a to this day with no issues or problems. They have taken it to cruises vacations and even to the beach and I have not seen any problems with this speaker. It is one of my favorite brands as well And I do have a couple that are over five years old that still work To the day

    It’s loud enough to throw a party. The sound fills a room. I work nights so I depend on it to play white noise as I try to sleep during the day. I am a nurse I. New York. I have terrible neighbors upstairs who have their ten year old son run and stump around above me. I can only get peace when he is at school.

    Excellent Bluetooth speaker. It has a little bass and is conveniently portable. I replaced two soundcore speakers for the JBL charge 5 and it outperforms the tandem. The battery life is excellent and meets all my needs.

    Love these JBL speakers! I was hoping to set up an outdoor net of wireless speakers with my old JBL but these new ones wouldn’t communicate. Oh well…great sound quality and booming volume with bass. Battery seems to last forever.
