Review on Altec Lansing LifeJacket 3 Portable Rugged Bluetooth Speaker - Long-lasting 16 Hour Battery Life, 100FT Wireless Range, Voice Assistant Supported by Bruce Garner

I purchased this product based on Altec Lansing's reputation and previous products I have had. I have bought this item twice. The first time I sent it back thinking I received the returned goods. This second (replacement) device was even worse. The sound quality was terrible. I paid a premium for a quality product, and it doesn't even come close to my son's cheap $32 wireless Bluetooth speaker from another manufacturer. Altec should consider investing less money in their complex layout and upgrading the speakers and electronics. Bluetooth was easy to connect but the audio was flat and distorted. After 2 such units I am convinced that this item is not worth $130. Very disappointed.
