Great while it lasts!

I bought a boom box for my class last fall. My students liked it and we were happy to choose music for it. We took him to the playground and had fun during recess. It was loud, clear, and paired with my phone with ease. Everything was fine until I brought it home. One afternoon he was over with some friends and when I was carrying him into the house he bumped into one of my steps. I didn't drop it, it was just a little lower than it should have been and quickly hit one of the steps. I take full responsibility. I shouldn't have tried to wear it all at once, but it happened. After that I went back to my phone and it blocked. Since then, that's all it does when you turn it on. The ads get blocked in the middle of loading and nothing works. The only way to turn off the light is to turn it off and let the battery die. I was hoping this would have the effect of a hard reset, but no. Nothing yet. I'm sitting here rewatching it because I liked it so much, but $150 is a bit pricey to replace a boombox that can't be damaged.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
