No 11
The Sonos Roam 2 actually survives getting knocked into the pool. It's IP67 waterproof, meaning you can take it from your kitchen to the patio without babying it, and it'll keep playing through 10 hours of battery life. What makes it genuinely useful is that it switches seamlessly between standalone mode outside and multi-room audio when you're back home, so you're not managing two different speakers.
This lands perfectly for guys who actually use their outdoor space. Your dad grilling on weekends, your boyfriend who hosts backyard hangs, your husband who's tired of carrying a Bluetooth speaker that dies by sunset. Give this to someone with a patio they actually care about, and it becomes the thing they reach for before they even unlock the door.
The speaker comes ready to go with a charging cable and quick-start guide. There's only one size, and it comes in black or white. It ships in Sonos packaging that looks intentional enough to give as-is if you want. At $179, you're paying for waterproofing and seamless home integration that actually works, not just a premium price tag.
