      Hi AngelM, Thank you for the 5-star rating! Were so glad you love the loud, incredible audio quality and overall features of your XP700. This speaker does not feature a caster that lets you roll the SRS-XP700 from place to place, however, it has a comfortable handle that makes carrying it easy. So if you usually have your speaker in the house, but fancy listening in the garden, simply pick up your speaker and go. Know that we take all feedback seriously as we always strive to make this a better experience. The XP700 is built for venue-filling sound.
