Customer Ratings & Reviews

Disappointed in the hook up with the Wi-Fi is not too user-friendly, and it keeps losing its connection. All my other devices are fine, but not the Sonos. I cannot recommend it.

Awful. Not at all what I thought it would be. Do not buy.

I bought to use with a computer and record player. The speakers do not stay in Stereo and constantly have drop offs on the speaker that’s not directly plugged into the line in. Do not buy to use like this, it doesn’t work.

I returned them as The speakers didnt work,Sonos Customer service is terrible hrs trying to figure out the problem,I was told they are in a Major updates that will take months,its on their app.Very disappointed in Sonos.finally I returned the system and purchased a different one at Best Buy

The Sonos Era 100 is a great all-around smart speaker that offers excellent sound quality, a wide range of features, and a sleek design. It's a great choice for anyone looking for a high-quality speaker that can do it all. It's a compact, yet powerful speaker that delivers excellent sound quality. It produces rich, clear sound that fills even large rooms. It's also very good at handling bass, which can be a problem with some smaller speakers. And if you want to create a stereo system, you can easily pair two Era 100s together. The Era 100 has a number of features that make it a great choice for anyone looking for a smart speaker. It supports both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, so you can stream music from your favorite music services or connect your smartphone or tablet directly to the speaker. It also has built-in voice control, so you can use it to play music, control playback, and get information hands-free. Another great thing about the Era 100 is its ease of use. It has simple controls that are easy to understand and use. You can also control the speaker with your voice using Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. Overall, the Sonos Era 100 is a great choice for anyone looking for a high-quality smart speaker. It offers excellent sound quality, a wide range of features, and a sleek design. If you're looking for a speaker that can do it all, the Era 100 is a great option. Pros: • Excellent sound quality • Wide range of features • Sleek and stylish design Cons: • Pricey • No Built in display

It wont function with Alexa. Great sound . Frustrating to not get it to work.

Do not purchase. Sound quality is not great considering the cost. Constantly disconnects. Does not pair well. Stops working constantly. Huge buyer’s regret!!!

Sonos Era 100 Review The Good • Sound quality • Ability to setup stereo pair for immersive playback • Touch Controls and touch strip • Expandability within the Sonos ecosystem. • Line in Port – Not Tested • App • Bluetooth • Design Cons • Can be pricey The Review: If you're looking for a great sounding speaker that can be updated and the flexibility of adding more speakers for even greater sound, the ability to stream just about any music source and the option to create a wireless whole house system, then you want to look at this speaker. I’ve heard of Sonos throughout the years, however I never looked into it due to the cost of ownership and the fact that I never really understood how the system worked. This speaker has opened my eyes to just how amazing it is to play the same audio in any room, alone or all at the same time to create a truly immersive experience in your home. Once you understand the Sonos system and what it can do for you, you realize that while it is expensive, it offers a number of things to you all in one system that I have yet to see from any other company. Let me start by saying that while sound is subjective, I truly believe that the sound that comes out of this speaker is very balanced and sounds great with everything I play on it. The highs are crisp and clear, the mids are very balanced, and the low end is nice and full as well as punchy. I have listened to many genres from Pop, R&B, Hip Hop, Indie Rock, Alternative and Dance EDM. I’m very happy with how all of them sound and as weird as it might sound, I enjoy using this speaker because of just how good I think it makes everything sound. Note: You can add a second Ere 100 and set it up as a stereo pair and really increase the output and experience that you get from this product. The design of this speaker is also very nice. I love how the top touch controls are very responsive and very accurate at the same time. They feel almost natural and haven’t given any false input yet. The touch strip at the top of the speaker makes it easy to slide your finger up and down to make fast volume changes, and it can be very satisfying to use. The top of the speaker also has microphones so that you can use voice control for your preferred assistant (Google Home, Alexa) I personally use Alexa to control lights and listen to weather updates and it works great even when listening to music at higher volume, it can detect my voice. For those wondering you can disable the microphones via a toggle switch on the back of the speaker. There is also a button for Bluetooth on the back if you’re looking to quickly connect a device outside of the Sonos system. Good Job with the design of the controls Sonos. Now let's talk about the feature that I believe makes Sonos so special. I have always wanted to be able to play music throughout my house all at once. To be able to walk around the house and hear the same content as you walk through the rooms, there is just something so magical about that to me. The Sonos app makes all of this possible. Its super easy to group and ungroup speakers together and the controls in the app allow you to control the volume of each speaker or group in each room giving you total control of the over sound. Oh and another cool thing about the App volume control is when you have a group setup and adjust the main volume slider, it adjusts all volumes in that group simultaneously, keeping each rooms respective volume setting proportionate to how they were set. Like magic!! The other nice thing to know when buying into this ecosystem is that you can always grow your system to suit your needs as time goes on. This is the other feature that made me choose to buy into Sonos. Something that a lot of people have been asking for was a line-in port on a next gen speaker and Sonos has delivered. Now I can't comment on this feature on the Era 100, due to the separate dongle that is needed to allow you to use the speaker to connect a non-Sonos audio device into the system was not available at the time of this review. I have however used this feature on another Sonos product and the experience with that was good. I am being told this should be the same on the Era 100. The only time there was a slight delay, was when you group the line in device with other speakers, because the system has to process the analog signal on the line-in and send it to the other speakers in your system. But honestly this isn’t a big deal at all unless you are trying to use content with zero latency. The fact that you can take a turntable and plug it into this speaker and then broadcast that audio throughout your home is really cool. The Sonos App is by far one of the best music/audio source interfaces that I have ever used. You can literally add multiple streaming apps on top of multiple streaming apps. If you have Spotify or other streaming accounts and other family members have their own, you can add them too! You will be able to select the account you want to listen to from the music source page. The app also has many many features that allow fine control of your products and has been really enjoyable to use. It makes the speaker that much better having a good interface for using it. I will say that using this speaker for the past week has been a really good experience. So much so that I went out an purchased an Arc Soundbar, Sub and One SL’s for surrounds. That’s a whole different review but just know that I wasn’t planning on being this impressed and by falling in love with the Sound Quality and the Operation of this speaker. It’s a rare thing but I can whole heartily recommend this speaker and any other product from Sonos. Give yourself time to learn the ins and outs and you will be very happy. The only downside I could think of is that the speaker may not be in everyone’s budget. The products are pricey but for once, I believe you get what you pay for.

These speakers were not compatible with my spectrum router I had to buy eero router The sales people should inform you before buying this product!

Bought a set of these hoping to easily connect to my existing compatible Sonos products and we got one out of the two to connect. Very complicated to set up the app is also not user friendly. Feel like we would’ve been better off buying something cheaper and simpler. Returning both.

Terrible. Nothing like the original product. Ongoing playback issues. Very frustrating. I even contacted the CEO directly, and still no resolution. After $1,000’s invested, no more SONOS for me. Stay away. They are not what they used to be.

You need 2 of these to connect to your soundbar. I didn’t realize that and didn’t want 2.

I had a bose speaker that I took to other countries in a backpack to work sites for more than eight years the thing was indestructible. This futuristic looking piece of crap gave me issues with no instructions on how to fix it after two weeks. do not buy.

Wrost product setup ive ever experienced. Would refuse to setup. Would connect to my wifi. Then say it cant be found. Kept going round and round not finding it. Returned the product. Not messing with this. Cant even hookup to bluetooth until you setup in the app. Dumb design

Returned since would not connect to mesh system. 2 hours on phone with sonos and 1 hour with geek squad to no avail.

The Sonos ERA 100 is a nice bookshelf speaker that would work well in a medium size room/family room and does well at the most important thing for a speaker: sound quality. First be aware that this is not a portable speaker. It does not have a battery for mobile operation. The speaker comes attractively packaged with a power cable and clear instructions. While not overly large, the speaker is quite heavy so you won't be moving this around the house very much. The speaker has some simple touch controls on the top and a physical microphone switch if you don't want to feel like someone is listening to you. Setup was straightforward and clear. Like most things these days you need to download and install the Sonos app to complete setup. Everything worked perfectly the first time and I had no issues connecting and using the speaker from my phone (bluetooth), over wifi and streaming music services. Most importantly, the sound quality is really good. The range of volume of this speaker may be somewhat smaller than other speakers I have used; the loudest volume was very loud but it did not allow me to push the volume to an uncomfortable level. I consider that a good thing. And the sound did not distort at the highest volume. Bass is rich and treble is crisp and clear. While I would recommend this product, I also think there are many other good options out there, especially in this price range.

Spend a little extra and go with the Era 300 instead of this speaker.

Save your money. Unless you like the sound to go out for long periods of time. Or my favorite the high pitched sound that comes out of the speaker and sound bar. Best But WILL NOT help you with these problems. When you try to return they will not refund your money.

Worst speaker ever! You have to use wifi to hook it up not just Bluetooth, and ones it is hook up to my phone it wouldn't even hook up to a turn table. If you are thinking about buy this speaker don't, if you already bought it return it.

product has high distortion making it unusable. Call Sonos phone number 1.5-2 hour on hold never answers. No warranty. Research Sonos before buying. I got taken.
