What's great about it: How easy it is to setup and the sound quality.
What's not so great: A little pricey, but I got mine on sale.
At first I was a little skeptical about getting this speaker, but asked a family member and read a lot of reviews before purchasing. I originally went with an iHome that had a dock, but it just wasn't the same. I have always liked Bose and why cheat myself out of something so amazing? So I purchased it and honestly I couldn't be happier. It sounds great, never distorts and has a really good warranty.

What's great about it: Wireless mobility, good battery life.
What's not so great: Amount of devices synced.
Excellent product, great sound quality.
Easy to link new devices.
Don't remember how many synced devices It allows but had to dump all devices once. ( very easy to do)
The best part is the mobility. It allows you to take it anywhere and the range is further than what the specs says and no loss in sound quality.
For the garage, outside, office, any room in the house.

What's great about it: Very Portable, Great Range, Great Sound
What's not so great: Nothing!
I love this product with being able to place it anywhere and enjoy great sound quality for a portable speaker. It definitely beats the average phone or laptop speakers for just sitting outside or relaxing inside. Love the battery life and the range the bluetooth. The set up is very simple if you know where your bluetooth settings are on your device. The one thing that is kind of a hassle but is for all bluetooth devices, is if multiple devices are programmed to it then you have to know which one is connected and knowing how to disconnect it. Which is kind of a pain.

What's not so great: nothing yet.
I was surprised as to the sound quality of this speaker. Excellent.
While it is portable, it does have some weight to it.
Pairing with iPad and iPhone was simple.
Battery life at a normal listening level is 7-8 hours. Charges in 2 to 3 hours.

What's great about it: Easy to use, great quality
What's not so great: Shuts off after short time
I purchased this wireless speaker at the advice of my 21 year old son. It's purpose is for use with our church choir in rehearsal and worship service. Thought I needed an ipod for my accompaniment music but decided to use the speaker with my iphone, and it has worked out really well. It has plenty of volume, great quality, and is easy to transport. The only thing that would make this product better for my purposes, would be for it to stay on longer. It sometimes shuts off between the time the choir warms up and the offering, when we sing.

What's great about it: Sound quality, links quickly, loud enought
What's not so great: Typical Bose, a little pricey.
Use this on the deck, garage or traveling. Links quickly to my iPhone, loud enough, great sound, and decent battery life. Range is also good with the Blue Tooth. Would have been happier if they sold this for $50 less.

What's great about it: Easy setup, portability, Bose quality, great sound
What's not so great: Nothing so far
Setup was easy on both my Apple devices and my Sony laptop. No problems so far in pairing with either of the devices or the laptop as long as you remember to disconnect from your current device when you want to switch to another device.
Sound quality has been great so far with no noticeable Bluetooth dropouts.
Battery seems to last about 4 hours at a moderate volume.
Highly recommend it.

Very impressed with this unit. It was a little high priced but after using it the price does not matter because it is worth it. The sound quality is remarkable and love the fact it is portable. Good battery life also. I have run it for over 6 hours and have not had to charge it.

What's great about it: Sound quality, easy to use, portable
What's not so great: Price, features
I purchased the Bose SoundLink Wireless Speaker because it is portable and the reviews I read explained that the sound quality was great and it was easy to use. The reviews were exactly right. The sound quality is excellent, and the speaker is very loud. It is very easy to use and is extremely portable. I keep it plugged in most of the time while using it, so I haven't been able to test how long the battery lasts off the charger. The speaker's cover flips back to create a nice stand and it has a nice look to it as well. The price is a little high for a wireless speaker, but it is of high quality and you get what you pay for. There is not much else to the speaker besides turning it on and syncing it to a device. I wish there was a few more features integrated into it. However, I am very pleased and would recommend it to anyone who is in the market for a portable speaker.

What's great about it: tiny, unobtrusive design, huge wonderful sound, portable
What's not so great: sometimes hard to pair bluetooth device
Bought this while seeking a portable music player to use for dance practice. It was more expensive than I had intended, but I feel it was a great purchase. Now when I'm not on the go I use it in my living room as a replacement for all the nasty receiver, CD player, satellite radio gear, speakers, etc. So it solved two problems at once. I'm not sophisticated enough to worry about the nuances of sound quality--it sounds GREAT to me! Very pleased.
