    I really like the speaker. It's very compact, has plenty of battery life and has great sound. I mostly use it around the house when I'm working on one thing or another. The bluetooth range is also good.

    I love this speaker. I just use it as a personal speaker to relax with and listen to music in the shower. The bass is nice in my opinion and it has a decent battery. I’m happy with this purchase

    The plan was to use at work in the warehouse. Surprisingly it just wasn't loud enough. As for in the car or at home sounds great. I also had issues carrying around with me while working. The strap is frustrating to use. Obviously not meant to hang on you while working. Other than that. It's good. No regrets purchasing.

    Lots of bass, great sound. Battery last for decent amount of time. I've played it several times for about three to four hours before needing recharge. I've used it with my phone playing Spotify. Bluetooth works great.

    This is a decent little speaker but just not loud enough (even for the size) to warrant a 5 rating. Several speakers sounded better but were much more expensive. We decided to go for the more affordable option in case of loss or damage.
