Nice little speaker but only one pairing at a time

I saw this speaker at Best Buy and thought I would give it a try. It was a convenient size and I liked that you can pair two if them. The sound was pretty good for a tiny speaker with good bass. That is the good.
The bad is that once you pair it to a device it will not pair with another unless you follow certain steps. Unfortunately those steps are not provided in the manual!! I only figured it out by reading other reviews and someone posted the steps. They had to call the company to get them. That is ridiculous. Especially since if you unpair from the first device it will not pair with another one or the original device again, even if you reset it. So after following the steps I was able to pair with both my phone and tablet, however when I turned blue tooth off on my tablet the speaker would not work through my phone even though it said paired. To use it with my phone I have to re pair again.
I realize this is not a top of the line speaker but it should be able to work on more than one device without having to keep setting it up. I only plan to use it with my phone so I may keep it but I have not decided 100% yet.
The steps for those who want to know are:
1. Hold down the play/pause button and the power button at the same time. Device will beep and turn off.
2. Turn device back on, blue light should flash fast
3. Scan for it from the device you are setting up. Pair it and you are good to go.
The other poster said you can do this for multiple devices but like I said when I tried to use the first device after the second it would not play from the first again.
What's great about it: size, sound, range
What's not so great: user manual is lacking, if you want to use different device you have to re pair it
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
