    Great sound. The trade off is the battery life being short. Nice design and the color I chose works well with my decor.

    I gave my sister this speaker for Christmas. She paired it up with her iphone immediately. She loved it. It has great sound. Well, my birthday is in early January. Without knowing she was getting one, she gave me the same speaker, but it is black. We were both able to get the speaker for $59 (regular $99). It is a great speaker with a great sound.
