such a great speaker for a good price! the audio quality is up there with my jbl speaker. it has great durability being dropped and getting dirt or water on it and all its functions work well!

Update 2: the company reached out to me with options to make sure I was fully satisfied. I am, now. Thank you!Update: 1 month later and now I just have a paperweight. Turns on, connects and immediately shuts down. Sometimes it makes a beeping sound like a busy signal on a phone. 2 beeps then shuts down. Manual has no troubleshooting. Miatone website doesnt even have it listed as a product. Dont have the box anymore so i cant return it. Kinda sucks having to take this loss. Wish i knew what was wrong.Original review: i work in a kitchen, and bought this so everyone could enjoy music when possible. Didn't want to spend too much money because the last speakers we had got mistreated. Also, with all of the mess that flies around in the air, it's prone to getting dirty and didn't want to sacrifice an expensive speaker.This thing blew me away. Gets surprisingly loud. And the bass is impressive. Not deep, chest punch bass, but you can clearly make out bass guitars in rock and funk music, and even rap/hip-hop/edm had some carry. I'm impressed. Everyone else who has listened closely is impressed.Out of the box, mine was VERY dead. And it charges so slowly. So I thought the speaker was just DOA. But I just left it to charge and ran errands and came back to find out that I'm just stupid.It's got AUX in which is nice. Except barely anyone has a phone with a 3.5mm jack anymore so that's something. And the USB-C charging is a godsend. Micro USB broke on the last speaker we had.If you're on the fence about this one, just commit. It's worth it.

Will update after some use. Sound quality outstanding at this price point. I've paid more for others that did not sound as good. Well rounded (no pun intended). Bluetooth doesn't have a lot of reach but within it's limits works reliably, connects quickly.

Update: Nice compact unit. I blue tooth music (all styles) and audio books to it and am quite happy with it. Like all sound systems, it is very difficult to compare systems without hearing them side by side. My take is this is a far superior unit for sound quality, range of volume, and overall design and function. It does not have the "boxy" sound of some other similarly priced units. The small? (2") sub woofer, actually appears to provide some decend base. Ive been using my first unit for about two months on a daily basis and enjoyed it enought that I bought a second unit. The battery life appears to be significant (18 hours or so) since I start mine at 8 PM and let it play uninterupted till 8 the next day. So far so good.Follow UP: The second Unit had some technical issues (battery didn't charge) however the vendor/manufacturer quickly responded via numerous emails to my complaint and quickly resolved the issue. I was pretty surprized and happy that they actually cared enough to resolve my issue. I highly recomend these, not as a replacement for a thousand dollar sound system, but for general everyday portable use.
