    Great battery life for all outdoor activities this Summer! Great sound quality with deep bass that has a notable difference between other Speakers/Brands of the same size (i.e. JBL Charge, UE Megaboom). Ive used it by the pool, at the beach, and indoors and sounds travels a lot further than expected, great speaker and quality for the price!

    I have had many speakers through my years, but this one is the biggest and the heaviest. I think its sound is kinda lack luster for how big it is qnd how heavy it is. I have used smaller and lighter blietooth speakers that pack the same or more punch with a lower price. The speaker produces pretty good sound but could be better with everything considered.

    Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Pros: Easy to use Cool Lighting Effects Sound Level (Loudness) is mid tier Can pair with a 2nd speaker for stereo Can also pair with multiple 3rd party speakers for "party mode" Can charge a phone while listening. (All these features make it great for the beach!) Cons: 2nd device pairing fails sometimes speakers are not loud enough for large outdoor spaces. (Perfect for indoors though if you want it loud) no way to control your songs from the device itself.

    Good Sound Quality To Fill Your House

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Produces a high-quality sound and can reach loud volumes to fill a room, or more. There's a button to add more bass. It connects easily by Bluetooth to phone or computer (and also a 3.5mm input jack [not included]). It includes a USB-C charger with cable. There's a USB-A port where you can hook up a device that you wish to charge up (cable not included). Push a button and activate lights on the end that pulse along with the music. I enjoy using it around the house each day.

    This is a great weatherproof portable Bluetooth speaker. It sounds very good for its size, and it’s battery life is great. I like its retractable handle. We bought this for use poolside, and we’re very happy with its performance. There is even a custom case available for this on Amazon.

    this is a very capable Bluetooth speaker, it has an amazing battery life the music is very clean and clear the only real cons on this breaker is that it does not get loud enough, there are just to many speakers at this price point that get way louder and sound just as good. So even though I rate it well I would encourage other to check the marketplace as there are a lot of less expensive speakers that sound just as well in addition to being louder with many of them retailing for a lower price.

    Very pleased with this product overall. Good sound quality and battery life. Seems durable and the size makes it a good portable speaker yet big enough for home use. Only complaint is the lights are placed on the ends so you don’t really see them when using the speaker. Definitely worth the price when compared to other speakers in its price range.

    Solid sound. Saw a great deal on it, so picked it up. -The fullness and bass were actually too much for my original intention of connecting to a tablet for movies in bed during insomniac nights lol:) (Got a smaller speaker for that) Portability makes it handy to take to different areas of the house, inside and outside.
