Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Roam is disappointing for a Sonos. I have the Arc, Sub and ones and they sound great. The roam does not punch the highs and is very limited on volume for outdoor use. It sounds fine for casual use in a small room or for just background music. I bought it because it is one of the few that can stream Wi-Fi music. Outdoors I just use it as a remote to control my whole house system driven by Alexa.

I’ve had this for a few weeks now, not very happy with the connectivity, it random drops the connection (bluetooth & wi-fi) every other time I use it. It sometimes drops bluetooth connection when my phone is sitting less than a foot away from the speaker. Other than connectivty issues, this speaker sounds great for it’s size.

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.

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

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.

You have to love sonos! This mini soeaker packs bass and volume so much you would think its coming from a stereo system! Best purchase ever!!!

I like how portable the Sonos Roam is. It's really convenient to quickly pick up and take outside when I am doing yard work, grilling, etc and want to have the same music playing outside as I do inside. My biggest knocks are: 1) you have to keep this plugged in or the battery drains super quick. It tries to always be on and available like other sonos speakers so you need to keep it plugged in. Then in order to make it convenient you pretty much have to buy the $40 wireless charing pad so you can quickly pick up and take it with you. 2) Annoying that Audio Swap can't be done with an Amp. Really would be nice if I could just press a button the Roam and it'd automatically group into my group of speakers playing the same music.

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.

I own several Sonos products and love them all! Roam is no different, this sounds awesome!

Great speaker from sonos. As you know sonos leads the industry in wireless speakers. Great for outdoors and portable situations. Just as easy to set up as any of their other speakers.

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!

When it worked, it worked great! Great full sound and great Bluetooth range. After about a month, it would no longer charge or turn on. I tried several different charging blocks and outlets. Tried all of the different resets I could find and still nothing. Pretty expensive for a 1 month use speaker.

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.

Definitely a good option for it's connectivity and ease of use, they really went all out with it for a Bluetooth speaker

Such a clean, crisp sounding speaker, & so small! I have this hooked up via Bluetooth to my MacBook & serves as a desk speaker. It’s amazing! The Sonos app is easy to use as well.

Love this speaker. We take it everywhere. Be sure to set it up on Bluetooth before taking it any where, it’s a nightmare if you don’t.

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.

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.

We use this speaker everywhere! Inside, outside, pool, beach. We’ve had many but this one sounds the best and battery lasts the longest. So easy to set up and use.
