This nifty little speaker weighs just over a pound and has a carrying strap for easy transport. It's also IPX5 waterproof, so spills won't slow it down. And with a battery life of up to 10 hours on a single charge, you'll be able to keep the tunes going all night. The speaker also has color-changing LED lights, which will add extra ambiance to the festivities. Color options are graphite, purple and sandstone, so you can grab the one that best reflects your style.
And if you're new to QVC, you can save $20 off your first order of $40 or more when you use code HOLIDAY20. That means you can buy one for yourself and one as a gift at a lower price. Or, shop around and pick one of QVC's other fantastic finds to add to your cart.
Keep in mind that this model is small and only has a 15-watt output, which should still be enough for your den or poolside next summer, but if you need something with a little more power, check out all of our favorite Bluetooth speakers for more options -- or check out our headphone deals for private listening.
