I did a lot of searching for similar products before settling on this one.
It's a lot bigger and heavier than I had imaged, but it works great. It has good sound, and I love being able to jump forward and back through a playlist while in the shower.
My iPod stays dry.
Also, it's plenty loud enough. Put the iPod volume on the loudest setting then use the volume controls on the speaker. Using it that way, I have the speaker volume at probably halfway up.

I use it everyday during my shower. I definitely feel safe that the iPod's that I plug are safe and the sound is definitely good. It would have been nicer if I could use exactly the same functions as in the iPod (you can't use the shuffle play for example).

But I'm happy with this product.

I have been using this with my Nano 2nd generation without any problems at all. I just got a Nano 3rd Generation and the user guide says the controls won't work with this or it won't charge it either, I plan on trying the universal cord as a speaker jack and that should work. I love it, we have an IPOD speaker in each room of our townhouse and this one is great.

I got this for Christmas last year and really loved it in the beginning. However I noticed that if I played it too loud it almost shorted out and the sound would go away until I lowered it a bit. I don't know if I blew the speakers or not but it would definitely have that scratchy sound like a bad speaker. I primarily used it in the shower and although it's supposedly water resistant apparently it couldn't stand up to my showering because it eventually lost all sound quality. It's now very very scratchy sounding and it completely shorts out if the sound is too loud or too much bass is present, it goes to complete static. I'm not sure if it got too much water exposure, was defective, or if I just broke it but bottom line I'm getting a different one.

This is a great speaker system. The person who wrote the bad review obviously didn't read the directions. It has adapters you put in so that no matter who is using the speakers in your family, their iPod will fit. If you use batteries, it is very portable, although bigger and heavier than you expect from the pictures. The sound is great and I have dropped mine several times and it still works like new. It also recharges the iPod while you listen. It does pause, rewind, and fast forward. Just be sure to read the instructions.

I received this as a gift to replace my Ego speaker case that fell once too often and broke its latch. The engineering of this product is poor. First of all the speakers are stacked vertically. Unless you are lying on your side that effectively turns the stereo sound into mono. It cannot stand properly on its side because of the latches. Also sideways my full sized iPod works its way out of the connector. This product looks like and weighs a brick. The control wheel is really buttons arranged in a circle and are missing functions such as the scroll feature. Unlike the Ego this case is not water proof but only water resistant. The sound clarity is noticeably better than the Ego because of the more conventional speakers however it is not as good as most desk speakers. It comes packaged in a blister pack that you have to destroy to open. That is so you cannot return the resulting mess to Amazon.

The speaker works well in the shower. I would recommend it to anyone who wishes to enhance their shower experience. I plan on bringing it with me to college and look forward to using it.

I purchased two of the shower speakers; one for myself and one for my boyfriend as a present. Both of us have been using ours for a month and they are working perfectly. The sound is incredible. I use my ipod touch 2nd generation and my iphone also works when it's in airplane mode. The inside of the chamber stays completely dry. No problems yet. I highly recommend!

I bought this for my teenage daughter for Christmas. When she would take a shower she would have her Ipod turned up so loud I couldn't hear myself think! Now she can take her Ipod in the shower and I don't have to listen to it!

Very satisfied with my ihome Shower to Beach. Works well for me whether I'm off to the beach for the day or just doing some gardening in my own backyard. I would recommend this one.
