    Im loving the volune and sound quality of this speaker. I purchased this to replace my Echo Dot. My only conplaint is that the voice recognition is not sensitive enough. I find myself having to elevate my voice even in a quiet room to be picked up. A huge plus is that it pairs very well with my Sonos Ray. I definitely reccomend this item.

    I uses ordered my 6th of these speakers for another room. These speakers sound great. One can cover a good size room, but ideally get two and make them a stereo pair. They sound great as a pair and will handle a really large space. For awhile Sonos had some big reliability issues. They issued a very poor software update that messed up their app, removed some popular features, and also affected speaker reliability. BUT that has been fixed now all of us that use Sonos a lot are back to loving our products. It was a rare misstep for Sonos and I think they've learned their lesson. O also have a couple of Sonos Amps and one of their Ports connected to a separate amp. They all play well together now. Sonos is back to being the best in whole-house audio. I recommend these.

    Has a nice full sound that I like better than the Era 300. Playing them both together is the best! They fill in each other's weak spots. Very easy to set up, but the phone app loses connection every once in a while. It seems better on iOS than Android, but on iOS you can't use the volume buttons on the phone to adjust the speaker like on Android. Overall, I would recommend this Era 100 over the 300 for the difference in cost, plus I enjoy the sound a little more. And you can almost afford two of them for the price of the 300!

    Great in home theater sound system replacement

    I was actually surprise by how good the Sonos speaker was . The sound is all around good . The vocals in music and movies are super crisp regardless of treble or bass . The medium tones are smooth and not broken up regardless of how loud the speaker is out and was very good on the bass . The bass is very good and also doesn’t distort the clarity of medium or high notes and still keeps it tump. Does very well even if it is put in the center of a room or if you would like it to project sound in only 1 direction it has a setting in its app for that . It’s definitely great for a budget or replacement for a in home theater sound system

    To say that I love this product is an understatement. I live in a geodesic dome home where the sound can be rather tricky! I was able to put this along the catwalk to the upstairs and the sound can be heard everywhere.. It’s so nice to have music in your home without paying an arm and a leg to get it. We recently purchased a hot tub, so I’m thinking of buying the smaller version so I can have music at outside too!

    Love these speakers. They were meant to be in stereo, so buy two of them. Bought for my apartment room and they have full sound for WIFI streaming from my iphone. Working great over bluetooth from my Samsung TV as well. Surprising powerful bass for the size. Give these a try!

    The Sonos Era 100 and Bluetooth woofer have proved to be a great addition to our home theater system. The sound is clear and we feel close to a theatrical experience at home with this addition.

    This is by far the most amazing speaker! It has such a rich sound. I love the improved performance of the stereo sound. I can easily recommend it to anyone! I do wish I had Google Assistant still, that’s a big miss in my opinion and it would be great to have chromecast cast support. I really like that it has airplay and Sonos voice control because both of those works seamlessly. I’d love to see a Sonos 100 sl in the future!

    Perfect pair

    I finally added a pair of Sonos Era 100s to my surround sound setup, and honestly, they tie everything together perfectly. The sound feels fuller and more immersive now—like the room finally woke up. Movies have that extra punch in the action scenes, and music feels wider, with little details popping out that I didn’t notice before. Setup was super straightforward (classic Sonos), and the compact design means they don’t hog space or clash with the room. They’re small but don’t sound small—bass is tight, mids are clear, and highs are crisp without being harsh. Basically, they’re the missing piece I didn’t realize I needed until I hit play. If you’re already in the Sonos ecosystem, these are a no-brainer. They’re not just “rear speakers”—they make the whole system feel alive.

    Great sound, Sonos app makes it easy to do on the fly sound adjustments. As they say it does fill the room with sound. My wife and I are in our 60’s,we don’t have the hearing we used to. I spent $$$$ trying to get a good sound for watching TV and movies. The difference between soft voices and the dramatic sound had me constantly adjusting the volume so we could he the dialogue. With the app i adjust it 1 time and I’m done. I could not achieve this with other systems. Love it!,,,

    Love it. We recently bought an outdoor Sonos system to have music by the pool and patio. But when we came inside from outside to get food or drinks, etc., we had no music. We wanted something that would seamlessly connect to the existing sytem so we could hear the music everywhre. We bought the Era 100 to replace an old Bose smart speaker we had, connected it to the existing Sonos sytem, set it up easily and that was that. The music is everywhere! The sound quality is excellent and we were also pleased it came in white (blends in perfectly on our Kitchen counters!).

    We purchased five of these to use in five different rooms (replacing older speakers) and are very pleased with the quality of the audio. The feature for calibrating sound gives these speakers really seems to give this system an advantage over our existing system. We all agreed the quality of the audio throughout the house was improved by adding these into the system. They were also very easy to add to the existing Sonos setup. The step-by-step process worked quickly and easily for all five (only slowed by each one needing a software update before being added).

    These 'little sisters' to the Era300's actually sound great for both surround effects and for music, at a lower price. I had to replace Era300's with Era100's because the 300's don't connect as surrounds to the Sonos amp I installed in order to power two non-Sonos passive front speakers.

    Sonos already had a good thing going with the One speaker, but this levels the experience up significantly. The larger woofer provides deeper, richer bass, and the stereo tweeters give a much wider soundstage and allow you to better distinguish different layers of the music, rather than downmixing to mono like the One and making everything sound like it's coming from a single point in space. You'll be shocked at the quality of sound that comes from this speaker. If you're in the market for something like this, just get one of these. I probably wouldn't consider a One over this, even at its cheaper price, unless you're on a very tight budget. This model is really worth the extra ~$50.
