If you know one thing about me, you have to know that I love gadgets. As a busy mom and blogger, I am always looking for gadgets to simplify my life.

And what’s even better than simplicity? When simplicity, durability and quality collide. So does this portable Bluetooth speaker measure up? Keep reading for my full Altec Lansing BoomJacket review to find out everything I love it (and what I would like to have had).

My Altec Lansing BoomJacket Review
I’ve had the Altec Lansing BoomJacket Jolt for about a week now and to be honest, I haven’t relaxed without it. Now let me back up because that’s a broad statement. The Altec Lansing BoomJacket Jolt came in a really cool clear plastic case which showcased its durability. The very first thing I noticed was my hands gripping to its rubber padding. These appear to double as shock absorbers and scratch/damage protection and likely play a large role in that IP67 ‘Everything Proof’ rating.
