In love with the soundCharleneIn love with the sound of this speaker, the Cadillac of speakers in my opinion5
Great way to sneak speakers into a nice looking roomSylvia H.If this happens to fit your aesthetic, it’s a great little invention. It sounds good enough for what it is, and the glass shades look really cool. I kind of preferred the old mushroom style but the new one is also neat. You could always use your own shade clipped to the bulb if you don’t like IKEas options.
My biggest gripe: the cylinder in the center of the glass shades tends to sit a bit crooked. You can see it in some of the photos on the website. Mine did the same thing but I was able to coax it into line with a bit of force. A little annoying for a $50 lamp shade.
Last, the price. I got mine on sale which is nice, of course. I noticed that prices went up across nearly everything recently. This speaker with shade is more $20 more than it used to be. At $260 it’s getting a bit high to me for what you get.4

Good speaker, bad connectionEric L.Wifi connection is very weak and disconnects often, even when in the same room as the router. I currently use an ethernet connection and that hasn't failed yet. May be better if you have other sonos products that can boost the signal.3

SonosDominickExcellent package lamp snd great sound.5
Works great!Robert J.I’ve had the original version for three years now. You must first calibrate the sound in the Sonos app or else you’ll get muffled sound! You MUST not skip this step during setup and MUST auto calibrate the sound!5
Great LampJakub M.Sound and looks great!5
Melted insideShayne R.Have had this lamp for almost a year. Worked awesome until today when the lamp started flickering. Then turned off completely. When I took off the shade, the inside had melted. Like full on melted. Ruined. I won’t be buying anything expensive from ikea again.1
Quirky look, average sound, unexpected power behaviorRomanI'll start by saying that the lamp simply didn't work for me. I liked the quirky looks just enough to live with it so I took the chance but sadly the sound was bad compared to a Sonos One SL device which is a little disappointing considering it's basically the same price (I know this adds the lamp part but I think that can amount to 1/4 of the price at most).
But I could have lived even with the somewhat disappointing and muffled sound if it weren't for the real deal breaker for me, and it's that this lamp won't remember the last power state if the power is cut off (from a switch or a power outage) and this is annoying, even more if you use smart bulbs because you won't be able to control them from the app until you manually go and press the power button on each lamp every time this happens. That's a big issue for me and I suspect for many people out there.3
