    Very tempted but would really like to know how the sound quality of this is before buying just for the sake of it.

    Would like to pair it with my Echo Dot which I currently have connected to an Anker Bluetooth speaker.

    Solid reviews. Defo worth it at that price. 40W- should well outperform the anker

    I bought one of these via parcel motel. Got the notification that it was in my local pm Location. My parents tried to collect it but said they couldn't collect it. I went in myself then and it was saying the same for my mobile number and pin. However on the website it's saying with customer.

    Anyone ever had difficulty with collecting something with PM. I've logged a support request with them online, so i will see what happens.

    So anybody who originally ordered still not had theirs shipped? I ordered Sunday just after 1am (Monday morning) and still hasn't been shipped. Looking unlikely to arrive before Xmas.

    Does anyone know how it's powered? Is it micro usb and is there a built in battery or replaceable and can it be recharged by plugging it in direct?

    Mains adapter, no battery. Too big to be portable.

    Thanks OP, I've been on the lookout for a Bluetooth speaker for a while, after reading the reviews etc it looks serious value at 40 odd euro delivered.

    I posted the BA so I guess I was one of the first to order. No delivery yet. I was onto CS last week and they assured me that my 2 would be delivered by Christmas. There's still time, although it's only a present to me so I'm not bothered anyway. I do hope that anyone in the 'present for someone else ' boat gets sorted though.

    Just got a notification from PM to say that the package was oversized.

    They must have used a huge box to put the speaker in :eek:

    No way, did anyone else receive it from PM? What's that add to the cost?

    Parcel Motel as well.

    €7 with free transfer to your local PM depot or an additional cost of €7.50 to get it home delivered, so €14.50 in total

    ^ Anyone else received theirs through Parcel Motel?

    Was it classed as oversized?

    Ordered 3 speakers and 3 network adapters, just got informed by PM that oversize parcel is available - Your parcel size is 50 x 60 x 40 cm 6 kg.

    "The largest Parcel Motel locker size is 41 × 38 × 64 cm"

    Surely you should be within the limit there?

    For all 3, or will that be 3 different parcels do you reckon?

    edit:

    On the ebay listing it says:
    Weight 3 Kg
    Dimensions 17cm(H) 23.5cm(W) 42cm(D)

    So unless they're shipping it in a huge box, it shouldn't be oversized?

    My Ebay account indicates that 3 of each item is in the delivery, so I am hoping it is all together in one parcel; if so it makes the €7 oversize parcel charge good value.

    I reckon so too, UsedToWait.

    I have sent in a ticket requesting a partial refund as i opted for house delivery

    Just emailed asking why my order hasn't shipped. Got an automated out of office email saying they're not back until Wednesday. Really annoying, left waiting for it to ship a week now. Looks unlikely to arrive before Xmas, even though the estimate indicated they had stock and would ship right away.

    Does anyone have one of these, are they any good?
    For the price I guess it's worth a shot.
