Great sound comes in a small package!
Coming from a household of Bose speakers, this baby rivals the best of them! I haven't used the smart speaker with voice control, but just streaming my Sirius, Pandora and Spotify has been a breeze. There is a deep and full sound that comes from this speaker. We have one Sonos speaker in a warehouse at my work, and I was immediately impressed. I bought one for an outside bar/game room, and that one speaker eliminated the need for a full surround sound system. This latest Sonos speaker is in our living room on a side table and is quickly becoming my go-to for music streaming daily!
I will replace our sound bar with a Sonos system in the very near future.
Buy this.

Sonos speakers are excellent. We added this Sonos one to our setup and are happy with it. The sound quality seems to be slightly better than our older play one’s. We also use Alexa and that function works well.

Sonos build quality seems to be on point and packaged neatly (all this isn’t a performance attribute, but at least you know there’s a level of attention to detail right off).
Set up is generally pretty easy if you down load the app and follow the prompts (of note; if you are setting up a speaker wireless, ensure that you are setting it up on the same wife network channel. If you have a two channel router that has a 2.4ghz and 5ghz network make sure the device you are using is on one of those, the ensure the speaker is on the same one).
Sound quality is like many things down to personal taste. Listening to classical, jazz and acoustic music the sing along very nice and cleanly they aren’t bass heavy and as the volume comes up the bass fades further (begging you to add the Sonos Sub). The production of mods and highs will keep most listeners happy in most living conditions.
When paired as a stereo set, the experience is doubly good.
If wanting to use in stereo paired to say an appleTV, it can be done using the airplay2 feature and will sound better than plain tv speakers, but bandwidth drops off fast and then sound glitches. To this add any of the Sonos sound bars if planning to use for tv.

I purchased these as rear surround for my PlayBase 5.1 setup. I was blown away by how easy the setup was and how good these sound.
It is addicting now because I want more for every room! I love the fact that you can add more and more to build out an entire home sound system!
If I had to think of any Cons to this product, it would be that it does not support either Bluetooth or a physical connection via Aux cord. My reasoning is that if the WiFi were to go down for some period of time, the speakers become useless paperweights until the WiFi is back up.
Overall I would highly recommend if your home network can sustain a consistently stable network. I also recommend hard wiring one Sonos product for the best network results.

Excellent sound quality in a stylish compact speaker with the extra voice assistant feature to use Alexa or Google. Great to expand the Sonos speaker system to other rooms of your home.

Sonos is an awesome brand. Went to Best Buy to purchase Bose. The guy who helped us mentioned that Sonos sounds better. He even guaranteed it. Of course I did not believe him since Bose is all I knew. I’m the type of person that seeing is believing. When he turned the Sonos system on my jaw dropped and I fell in love. Sorry Bose, Sonos is my go to now. We have 2 soundbars (1 downstairs in the living room and one in the media room), 2 Gen 2 and the subwoofer in our media room. The sound is amazing! An actual quality home theater. I like that I can pair the 2 soundbars so when listening to my music while cleaning I don’t miss a favorite song.

I was able to complete my Sonos system with a second Sonos One speaker. I am totally happy with the brand, although it's a bit pricy. In this case, you get what you pay for. Highly recommend for those who have a good home wifi and want a great theater sound.

The sound from the speakers is quite good...have not been able to use the group to work in my app to make 3 speakers work at once. I have been using apple airplay and just tapping one button to connect them. It took me longer to install than I thought but it is doing what I wanted.
