I had trouble setting up my Sonos Ones (mostly my fault, but the tech support guy was zoned out). But once that was resolved, the set up of the 'Move' was super easy. It does seem to adjust to its acoustic environment; the sound is excellent inside and out.
Sound quality is good, but Alexa integration needs work

I love that this speaker can utilize Bluetooth or wireless. I stream music from numerous sources almost 24/7 and the sound quality of the Sonos Move is nice. It was a great improvement over my Sonos Play One. If you are buying this solely for speaker quality I would give it 4 stars. However, the integrated Alexa leaves something to be desired. It is nowhere near as responsive as my echo dots which I have all over my home. Frequently I will call Alexa from within 15 feet of the Sonos Move and it will not respond but an Echo Dot from another room will answer. Sadly the integrated Alex was one of the deciding factors when I chose the Sonos Move and I have been disappointed thus far.
Pros: Bluetooth, Easy to Set Up, Streams All My Music, and More, Wireless
The name of the speaker describes it perfectly, once setup I take this thing with me to other rooms that don't have speakers, and especially to my outdoor patio. What's not great is the Sonos app itself. Once your device is added, you can group it to other devices so all devices play the same thing. Sounds simple enough however for some reason Sonos products when grouped are a little buggy. I often cannot adjust the volume of the speakers from within other apps, nor press the play/pause/next song buttons. To remedy this I go back into the Sonos app, but frequently it hasn't refreshed to what is currently playing, so pressing next or play would cause it to change playlists completely.
The Sonos one is a great product that can be used over WiFi or Bluetooth. Just one speaker has enough power to fill up my big patio area. Very happy with the quality. Great job Sonos.
Pros: Different Music, Different Rooms, Easy to Set Up, Expandable, Free Control Options, Streams All My Music, and More, Superior Sound, Wireless
I mainly use it to extend the music sound and capacity of my existing outdoor speakers. It's nice to be able to move the device from place to place depending on the need (side yard to back yard, etc.). I have two (thinking of getting a third one), and by themselves they may not be enough for a backyard but since I already have 4 more built in speakers, these two additional Move speakers add just enough extra sound to create a surrounding and cohesive outdoor sound system. I also like that it doesn't need another connect amp (like my other outdoor speakers have). I also get to use them for when I go out (picnic, park, etc., etc.). Very good so far overall.
