Audiophiles rejoice!
The sound is amazing. I bought the first one at Costco and realized that I wanted a second one because they can be paired as left and right speakers. Real old timey stuff! Costco was sold out and I turned to Amazon. I use them both in the house and outside in the yard. They paired easily with my iPhone to use wirelessly and I have an audio cable that connects directly to any other device with an audio out connection.The different colored lights- mood lighting - is nice but I would be just as happy without them.The handle makes moving it around so easy. It sounds like a simple thing but After carrying around many speakers without a handle, I love the obvious convenience.About the sound- i am an audiophile. In the 60’s and 70’s I had a turntable, a tuner, AR speakers and a great set of headphones. I was in music heaven.Although the music is digital and not quite LP grade, the sound is audiophile approved.one speaker is terrific- two paired together is terrific x 2If you miss the amazing stereo sound from your old stereo speakers, buy two of these and you will be delighted. Heck, buy one and you will enjoy stereo sound from a single unit.I cannot find one bad thing to say about these.I am so happy I could find one on Amazon after Costco sold out.

Good, but not worth the price.
I purchased one of these to put out by my pool. I like the size, and the sound is pretty good. At first glance this speaker appears to be a 360 degree speaker, but its not. The sound only comes out of one side. The issue I keep having is the speaker keeps losing bluetooth connectivity with my phone. I have paired multiple phones to make sure the phone wasnt the issue. Unfortunately every phone I used loses bluetooth connectivity even when the phone is sat right next to the speaker. The lights are a nice feature, but are not super bright. Overall this is a good speaker, but not worth the 150.00. I would comforatbly pay between 80-100 dollars for this, no more.

It is perfect for what it is
For a hundred bucks and change, this thing is sturdy and has good sound that travels nicely in any garden space of reasonable size. It is solid and the lighting function is just an accessory that is necessary but fun. BT pairs so easily and is a nice auxiliary speaker for outdoors projectors or whatever. Surprised by reviews that do not take into account the value which puts it in different lens.

Battery lieaves something to be desired but with you can stream to it also while it's being charged
, when you connect to one then the other one will connect by itself and that's pretty darn good so it's true stereo if it's streaming stereo not all streaming is good stereo

Had no problems connecting to bluetooth. Instructions were easy to follow
I like the stylish look of it and I put one on the patio and one inside my Gazebo. The sound is great.

Stereo Pair Sounds Great BUT Quality Control Issues
Bought two for outdoor wireless use around the hot tub. Out of the box easy setup. Tested and was very happy with sound quality but soon after started hearing distortion from the right unit. Sounded like a blown speaker. Amazon replaced but now the left unit seems to be having power management issues. Charged till green light came on > Turned unit off> Next morning it was completely dead (red light and not turning on after plugging in). I’ll continue to test as I really like the sound and design. Hopefully I can get these working reliably.

Best Wireless Speaker
This is the best wireless speaker, it was a Definitely a Big hit at our last get together. You won't be sorry with this purchase. Will be ordering another to pair with each other.

Great for stereo... something usually missing with Bluetooth
Sound really nice and I bought 2 so I have them paired in stereo. Loud and clear and no power cords because they are rechargeable.. and there are cool lights mode too

No Bass
For a big speaker I assumed it would have preformed better. Not much Bass at all. I wouldn't recommend this speaker.
