Review on UE ROLL 2 Volcano Wireless Portable Bluetooth Speaker (Waterproof) by Angela Freed

Be careful with photos. This speaker is not vertical. I bought this speaker because Wirecutter ranked it as the best portable wireless bluetooth speaker, but I found to my great surprise that the speaker could not be placed vertically as shown in all the photos. The loop shown in the photos that looks like the right stand is actually a rope used to hang the speaker. The sound quality of the speaker and controls are indeed, as Wirecutter says, excellent. However, I need a speaker that directs the sound into the room, not up to the ceiling. So I took advantage of Revane's generous return policy and sent the speaker back.
