Its a nice little speaker. I bought the charging station for it too, but you can still just use a reguale usb-c. Sonos app made it easy to set up

I am a collector of bluetooth speakers. I have all the good ones. Bose, JBL, UE, Apple... I have a Sonos system in my home theater. I was really looking forward to this speaker. I was looking for a good review and there really wasn't anything out there. So, I'm writing this review. When I went to Best Buy to listen to it, the demo system was broken. But because Sonos is a great brand, I bought it without listening to it. Really satisfying sound. The size and footprint is great. I would compare it to the Bose Mini Soundlink II. Not quite as much bass but good enough. It's a little more clear than the Bose though. The only gripe I have is that it has some issues with syncing from time to time. I'll be buying another one, so I can pair them in stereo.

Very Impressed bout the sound quality and battery life that the speaker provides. Best feature is the Bluetooth capability that allows me to connect my Bluetooth recorder player to the rest of my Sonos system for a fraction of the price.

Clear sounds I use when im streaming movies or listening to music. I bought 2 so I could pair them. Pairing them does not make them true surround sound, it just plays out of both but having one to my rt and left works great for me. They came be taken from room to room or outside (they are water/weather resistant) and used separately as well. They’re pricey so thats why 4 stars overall and 3 for value. Im sure they’re making huge margins cost to make vs asking price.

Very good sound quality for the size of the speaker. Easy to link to my home theater system when I'm home to use as an additional speaker. Only two complaints would be that for the price they could afford to include the power adapter (especially because a standard 5V 1A or 1.5A is insufficient to charge the device and that I wish my home theater system would automatically include the Roam anytime it is on the network vs having to manually add it each time.

From an integration perspective, is great and easy to use. I do wish it went higher on volume, but otherwise a great product overall

Great product! but tends to turn off after a few minutes. Would be nice if it would stay on like the other Sonos products.

The speaker is significantly smaller than what you would expect for the price. I was shocked when I opened the box and saw how small it was. Having said that it is still very high quality speaker as I have come to expect from all Sonos products.

First and foremost it’s a really great sounding speaker for it’s size, but that’s about it for me! Now the bad. It has horrible battery life, I was only getting 3 days out of it before it needed to be recharged. It lost a lot of battery in sleep mode for some reason. After first setting up device for true tuning, I had microphone off as well as voice assistants…and still had horrible battery life. Maybe after updates it will be fixed. Also, for the people that want to use Apple Airplay, another strange thing is you need to open up the Sonos app to wake up the Roam before you can actually use Airplay. If you are playing a song like normal then go to your Airplay devices you will not see the Roam because it will be in sleep mode. Which for me kinda defeats the purpose of having Airplay. Last but not least, Sonos should have made the play/pause & volume buttons the same white color (black color for the white roam) as the Sonos logo that’s on the speaker, because they are hard to see. I returned the Sonos Roam and purchased the Marshall Emberton…and I’m very happy with it.

I purchased this because I have several other Sonos products, which perform well. The Roam is a welcome addition to my outdoor adventures. The charge lasts for a long afternoon, the sound is good. I wish the volume would go up a bit more than it does, but it is perfect for quiet music at the beach. The only small complaint, when packed away the on switch seems easy to turn on, so when I go to use the speaker the batteries are drained. I recommend the speaker.

Great little speaker, way better quality than Bose for a better price. I love that it can play over Wi-Fi instead of Bluetooth. I am hoping to get the full surround sound system for my home with Sonia after trying this out

Sounds great, but it does not hold a charge very well. I fully charged it and turned it off thinking that would preserve the battery, but it was dead when I tried to use it less than a week later. It also will not turn on immediately if it's dead. In fact, it took well over an hour before it would turn on. That is by far the most frustrating part of this product. It should turn on and work within a minute or two if it's plugged in regardless of how low the battery is.

I love this. I regret not buying it sooner. Perfect portable speaker works great in the bathroom when I shower and all over the house where I have not filled it with Sonos. Also love that it has Alexa built in and wireless charges on my qi charger.

I REALLY want to love this speaker. The sound is fantastic. The only issue I have with it, and it's bad enough to cost 2 stars, is that it CONSTANTLY loses connection to my network. This pretty consistently requires a power cycle of the speaker to get it back on-line. No other electronics in my office have this issue. It's a real shame, without these frustrations, the speaker would be simply excellent.

This was a replacement for a bad Sonos Roam. I had no issues purchasing the same. They have a wonderful, full sound for such a small form factor. It can be hidden easily behind furniture or cabinets which is important to some.

Another great Sonos product! The quality of sound that comes out of such a small package is very impressive! I’ve used them in combination with my Sonos sound bar and independently. Either way, they do not disappoint!

What more can be said about Sonos products. This is my 4th piece and I can’t wait to take to the beach. The sound is loud, the bass booms. It is a compact giant. Better than some others I’ve had in this size.

Everything I wanted in a portable speaker, wifi, good sound, easy set up, smart home. Then it dies 10 days in.

Excellent sound. Great portability. Perfect for sitting in the backyard or taking tunes on vacation. Only issue is difficulty switching WiFi networks... when we bring it outside, which is only covered by our extender, it loses the signal and we have to reconnect (or switch to Bluetooth). Not a big deal, but a first world problem if I ever heard one... Also, the charging stand is expensive, but that's sold separately, so not entirely relevant here.

Good sound, holds charge a long time, connects to other sonos
