The Short Review: I am extremely happy with this product. It looks great, is easy to use, and is very convenient. My only wish is that the speakers were louder. They are not quiet, but I wouldn't mind a little more power.
The Long Review: In my short time owning this product, I am already super happy I purchased it. First off, it does exactly what I wanted it to do: keep drinks cold for a long time and play music for a long time, in one package. I live in the city and use public transit, so combining the speaker and coolers means less things to carry/remember.
This is not an audiophile's speaker, nor should you expect it to be, it's a speaker that is contained in a cooler, and there are limitations to that form factor, especially for the bass. However, the sound is crisp and clear, and sounds good, if a little heavy on the high ranges. I do wish it was slightly more powerful (especially when you're competing against other sounds in busier areas), but overall the speaker is good when you consider the form factor.
The cooler looks AWESOME, I love the retro look, and have gotten plenty of compliments. And it's an Igloo cooler, so at least the cooler part will last forever (hoping the speaker has a long shelf life too). It is a little on the pricy side, but TBH, very worth it IMO.
The speakers are horrible quality, the sound is terrible, we are returning the product and so is all of our friends who purchased it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
