Grant, Stockport Spoken-word listener
- Good points:
- very well designed. punchy sound for its size ideal for kitchen and bathroom. I bought three in the end.
- Bad points:
- BEWARE the new version (series II) has a thin matt finish applied which is a nighmare if you get ink marks etc and does not wipe off again. I got a refund and got the old design which is shiny surface so you are able to clean it. Due to this, the new design is now over designed and would not touch with bargepole.

Score 8.0/10Having to buy a PURE specific battery pack to make it portable and this adds considerable to the cost
