Bought this while on sale and to my surprise personalization and shipping was free also so we pulled the trigger early for Christmas. My personalization came out exactly as I expected. Ive only gotten to use the speaker a couple times at work but everyone owns JBL in our aviation hangar so I knew what I was getting
Got a personalized 6 a few weeks ago. Showed up looking much more subtle than the website indicated which was disappointing. Personalization means I can't return which quickly became a problem after attempting to put the handle on the speaker. My small fingernail barely caught the speaker as I was putting the handle on and somehow damaged front. At first I thought it was just a scuff that could be wiped off but quickly found it was frayed cloth due to poor design. My previous charge was a 2/3 and by comparison I feel the old model was more durable and better built. The 6 has a kids toy plastic aesthetic that i feel affects the sound quality. Out of the box the 6 does not feel finely tuned and seems to have less punch than previous models. For the price the speaker should also have come with a power brick/cable. I regret my purchase even though it was bought on sale. Had I'd known the personalization would be cheaply mad I would not have done it.

Just bought this speaker for Black Friday and I'm going to be honest. THIS SPEAKER IS SO GOOD FOR THE BLACK FRIDAY DEAL COP IMMEDIATELY. with the amount of features provided with the speaker you really can't go wrong at this price
The reason I gave 4 starts instead of 5 because JBL made it so hard to return it, but the speaker is pretty impressive I have to admit. It’s small but loud enough for a small group gathering. I would highly recommend to my friends
