    The bright red color is nice and it has some base but it is not loud enough. If you turn it up to the highest setting it still was not loud. I don't want to damage my ears but I want to know that I have a speaker on. It sounds like it's coming from my phone with nothing extra.

    This speaker has great sound for its size. Setup was easy and looks great on our coffee table. I connected to my echo which projects the sound to the speaker. Will definitely recommend it and thinking of ordering one more for my office.

    I bought this Bluetooth speaker for my wife so she can listen to music of her choice while at work (currently Christmas music). The music is stored on her cell phone and is accessed via a free MP3 playing app. The sound is very good. She loves it.

    I was pleasantly surprised to hear the rich sound that comes from this small wireless speaker, both indoors and outside. I was also very pleased with the short delivery time (I opted for pickup at a nearby UPS), in about 2 days! Happy with my purchase!

    Purchased this speaker for the work truck I drive speakers are kind of crackly truck makes a lot of noise so my FM transmitter wouldn't work real well in it but this little speaker did the trick made the long road drives much more pleasant to deal with because there's only two decent rock stations in Florida so this speaker and Pandora are a saving Grace

    I wasn't expecting this to work so well. The sound quality is pretty impressive for a small device. It's great to take with you on the go. However, I would advise purchasing a carrying case for it since it doesn't come with one. Especially if you take it everywhere.
