    I need to return this. It will not charge up. I bought to take on the golf course to listen while we played. Never could get it to charge then and just got it back out today to play music and it won’t charge So I will bring it back to the store this week to hopefully trade it for another

    Little powerhouse

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This speaker has unparalleled sound quality and is loud enough to be easily heard in most environments such as constructive, etc. The Bluetooth range is a lot further that the 30' advertised. More like 70 ' in open areas. Its well built and durable. You cant go wrong for the price in my opinion.

    Bluetooth speaker costing over $100 and not being able to sustain a proper connection with my phone was just a big disappointment and problem. I'd walk 10 ft most and it would begin to studder. My previos speaker was a Cambridge sound works speaker the connection was 30ft ++ and only cost $25. Hence why I decided to return this one. Not worth the hassle or the money
