How about, "I own one, but never use it because it basically sucks"?

I have one, but it now basically sits in the garage for when I need music for a work out or a project. Otherwise, I have switched to Sonos for music around the house. I don't move the Sonos speakers around.

I have one, but only use it when on vacation to watch movies on the tablet or laptop and maybe listen to music. Everything else is a big no no here.

I plan on getting a relatively rugged one for use on vacations, in the yard at the beach etc. Possibly the UE Roll.

Ive owned multiples (UE/TDK/BOSE/SOUNDFREQ) and they are getting better and better each year. I currently use a UE Megaboom and I take it everywhere. Its great for the beach, pool or in a Kayak. I think im going to get a 2nd to stereo pair for backyard parties. The upcoming Fugoo XL looks pretty promising as well as the JBL Xtreme

I answered "No and Never", but do own an Onkyo LS-T10 for our bedroom TV. It has Bluetooth capability, but that has been seldom used.
