Great sound for that size

Happy with the product but Bose should start to make smart speakers of this size like Sonos.

Great sound and build up-no complaint,

It is amazing sound, only connectivity party mode from Bose connect app make it hard, go back and forth, and blue tooth system with gen 1st 4.3 which is not strong enough, manual button keys are not clearly visible

SoundLink Flex

Individually or as a pair the sound quality is very good. I have a few different Bose products and thought that the micros I have were good. The SoundLink flex is several levels better/fuller/clearer

Great little box of sound

In the past I've set up stereo systems in homes and the best I ever found was a speaker system by Iowa it was all electric it was only 1 in thick speakers this bose this little box fills my whole apartment with the sound I don't know what Bose did but it's beautiful it's true sound you can even hear when a guitar player slides the g-string it's just like those electric Iowa speakers that are installed 40 years ago

Powerful speaker in a small package!

I bought this to replace a speaker in the master bath and have been extremely happy with the sound quality of this speaker. It has exceeded my expectations.

Yup, it's AWESOME!!!

A friend of ours had this speaker and we loved it! Ended up purchasing 2 so that we could have a "surround" sound experience. AWESOME! For a portable speaker, this baby packs a punch with great sound. Would highly recommend!!

Great investment

I purchased 3 of these. Black white and light blue . They are perfect to move around the house from room to room or in the bathroom when taking a shower. My daughter who was a supervisor at a kids camp this summer used hers daily to entertain the kids at camp . Thinking of buying another one soon

Get ready to reconnect, over and over again

Love the sound, of course, it's a Bose?. but wow connecting two speakers for party mode is tedious. And every time a call comes through on my phone it disconnects and you have to reconnect the Bluetooth, AND redo party mode! One speaker is in kitchen, one is in upstairs loft space. My old Bluetooth speaker instantly reconnected on its own post interruptions. These speakers are not seamless nor user friendly.

Excellent little portable speaker.

Just arrived. The sound is great and it was so simple to connect to my phone. I have no complaints so far. Also I have an older Bose speaker and I can use both for party mode or stereo mode. Makes a great sound. It's it's also very good looking.

Quality counts

Bought two together. One had a defective power switch right out of the box, and would not function. Returned it and received another new one within ten days. No hassles, but disappointed in the initial build quality and then the delay to correct the issue. I returned the defective unit the very next day. Typical Bose sound, which is great.

Great sound.

Only owned for about a month, but I love this little speaker. Portable with great sound. Minimum buttons, so not too complicated. Long battery life. Only small complaint is that it will not connect to the Bose app like my head phones.

Disappointed in product performance

Purchase about a month ago. Pretty disappointed in the sound quality. Compared to the JBL flip 6, the Bose speaker sounds very flat. The battery does not hold a charge either. Needed to download the app in order to pair to my phone. No way to adjust sound settings.
