Its compact size is appreciated, making it suitable for various vehicles, and users find the installation process relatively straightforward. While the subwoofer is generally well-received, some customers mention space limitations as a potential drawback.

    The representative that told me to buy it in chat was wrong in recommendations. Luckily the tech who was scheduled to install the equipment saved the day with a more suitable product.

    Bought this for my son for Christmas. Store said it was OK to wait for him to come home for Summer Break to install. It failed the day after installed. Now I am stuck returning to Kicker. I am responsible for shipping. And I have to wait for Kicker to return.

    Piece of literal crap. It sounds ok but it lasts maybe a week. It doesn’t work at all now lights come in but no sound. The music I listen to is country and it can’t handle that bass don’t expect it to handle pop or hip-hop without burning up lol.

    The concept is great but the exicution wasn't there. Didn't work like it should. Everyone has different experiences but at your own risk. I would spend the money on separate system.

    Poor communication between the Best Buy online employees and the installation technicians at the store. Unless you have a wide open space to install a big simple subwoofer box, geek squad can't do anything. The chat agents told me this sub would add good bass to my current system, but then the Merrillville geek squad tech said it wouldn't add any more bass. I thought this Hideaway was simple enough for geek squad to install but that was impossible too without removing stuff. The app gets your vehicle info for nothing.

    I’m surprised this is a kicker product because it is horrible and only lasted a few hours! Literally the drive from Sparks NV to Fallon NV! The worst part is I purchased it a few weeks ago but I had to wait until my installation appointment, since it took a while to get my installation appointment now it is no longer available for return!

    I put this in my dodge durango and can't hear it over my factory audio in the front seat. But when I open the back I can somewhat feel the bass. Not impressed at all.
