    Fantastic and durable product with great sound quality! I have taken it hiking, mountain biking (it conveniently mounts to the GoPro mount on my bike) and kayaking. Today my kayak flipped and i thought it was lost, but then I was able to connect to it while it was underwater! I then blasted music at max volume and found it hiding in a muskrat hole. Amazing!

    This small ready to go while you’re on the go or not is very much needed for a good time or vibe. Plus, it really does kick out with the sound and it’s WATERPROOF!!!!

    Too loud when turning on and off

    This connected quickly and had good sound, but overall I didn't like the design or how loud it was when it turned on or off. Even if you put the volume all the way down, the volume when it turned on and off was separate from the music volume, and it was insanely loud. I also didn't like the position of the buttons. They felt awkwardly placed and were difficult to see on the Manta Ray Black color. Initially, the buttons were part of the reason I wanted to purchase, because it's difficult to find a bluetooth (shower) radio that has buttons to change the song, and I also liked that it had internal storage. I could have possibly gotten over my buttons issue, but I have Misophonia, so I could not get over the volume issue. I returned this.

    I like the fact that you can actually store music. It’s not as loud as I thought it would be for outdoor use. Other than that, it’s great for indoor use for office or room, and the portability is awesome.

    Great sound for the size! Great portability, barely weights anything. My only complaint is that it doesn’t shut off on its own, so if you forget to turn it off it will die.

    Awesome! My son loves it and loves that it is waterproof! Best part is you can save songs on the speaker itself! Sound is very good also.

    It's a surprisingly small speaker that produces a lot of volumbe. The different attachments to the speaker make it possible to enjoy it during any activity anywhere. There is a lot more treble than bass, so I did have to adjust my music player's EQ to get the right ✨vibes✨

    I bought this little guy for my husband, and so far, he loves it. It’s small, but powerful and easy to connect with a battery that holds up well. Great for listening to music or baseball games in the pool.

    This speaker went above my expectations. It is a powerful little thing and I have never even turned up to the max. The suction works very well. I have not used it in or near water yet though.

    For such a tiny speaker this thing is LOUD! Really nice sound! We bought for use on the water with our kayaks you can stick it to the rop of the kayak and it stays secure.
