After bringing it to the beach sometimes I just rinse the speaker off (although not really necessary as it repels sand just fine, I do it more for the oils) Very recently, I accidentally left one of my speakers out in the rain. The fact that it is waterproof is just the cherry on top. This speaker has been with me everywhere from kayaking, numerous beach trips sitting in the hot sun to camping and multiple other vacations.

I am able to hang them outside or practically anywhere I want. The design is rugged and I love the fact that it has a lanyard attached.

This thing is beyond durable, it just does a little bounce when it drops. I admittedly dropped this speaker numerous times at work (Wood flooring) from higher than normal distances and thanks to the rubber materials at the top and bottom, I don’t cringe when it drops. Even on lower volume the sound is so crisp, defined and deep. I love how LOUD crisp and clear the sound is. I do have pretty high expectations for my sound quality, and I listen to every type of music, as well as podcasts. I’ve had this speaker for almost a year now, and let's just say this speaker has taken a beating & it still works the just as good as the day I’ve gotten it.

I do have some negatives and I will get to them. I know $79 is steep for a speaker, however if you listen to music a lot this is a GREAT investment. I’ve owned Bluetooth speakers in the past, but I received this speaker as a prize at work & It has been my daily driver since. First impressions: The packaging was beautiful and sleek.
