Worked for 4 months and suddenly stopped charging.

I worked 4 months and suddenly stopped taking a load. Must have some sort of guarantee but I don't see where to return it now

Pros
  • Practical thing
Cons
  • There are problems

Powerful for a small speaker

So impressed with the easy Bluetooth setup. What is most striking, however, is the power this little speaker produces. The sound is great. Worth the price. Very important.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Negative impression

I have to say that it does its job quite well and holds a charge for a long time.

We have researched a lot about different types of portable bluetooth speakers because we really wanted to install them on our motorcycle for use with iPod. Because this model comes with a mount but is still portable so we can take it to the lake, is waterproof, not very big and extremely reliable, we ended up going for it. I have to say that it does its job quite well and holds a charge for a long time. It doesn't quite have the sound power of our JBL, but we're very happy with our choice.

Pros
  • Sequins
Cons
  • Operating Speed

. Bought this speaker a few months ago and it has worked great. The sound was crystal clear and it was.

I bought this speaker a few months ago and it has worked great. The sound was crystal clear and a pleasure to listen to. Then all of a sudden a few days ago it died and refused to play for more than a few minutes and then shuts down automatically. Now it's practically unusable and probably won't save anymore. Not sure I'll buy another one but it was excellent when it worked properly.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Angry
