My husband bought this for my birthday and I'm very happy with it to be able to listen to music and cds as I cook and wash the dishes. It's wonderful to have it discreetly underneath the cabinet to free up counter space. As a professional musician, since these are not the fanciest of speakers, I wish they had the option for a line out to be able to hook it up to external speakers if desired, but nevertheless I'm still happy we have it!!!
