I bought the Trenbader Artlink Wireless Bluetooth Speaker from Amazon* at the end of December 2019, as I was looking for a "Mid-Century Modern" design wireless Bluetooth speaker. The first brand that came to my mind was Marshall, knowing the quality that it has. But looking at the price I wasn't ready to fork out a few hundred dollars for it. As such, I did my own research and found this speaker which cost 59.99 USD (sale price) excluding shipping. There are 3 colors to choose from (Wooden Speaker Black, Bluetooth Speaker Blue, and Retro Speaker Wood) and I selected the Retro Speaker Wood.
The Stuff
The Trenbader Artlink Wireless Bluetooth Speaker arrived in a week. The size of the speaker is not very big. It is roughly the size of an adult palm if you hold it. From their website it is said to have the following features:
- Customizable faceplate
- Bluetooth 4.0
- AM / FM Radio Reception
- Built-in Microphone
- Aux audio input
- Up to 12 hours of battery life
Here are some pictures of the speaker packaging and the speaker itself:

Usage and Experience
I have been using the Trenbader Artlink Wireless Bluetooth Speaker for 5 months now. I have mainly used it to connect to my phone and play music in my room. To connect your phone to the speaker, first, turn the source knob to Bluetooth to power on. The STAT light will blink. Second, turn the volume knob to 1/4 of the volume (at 2 to be exact) so that you are able to connect the device to the speaker. Lastly, do a Bluetooth search on your device and look for "Trenbader Artlink" to pair and connect it.

I have not turned the volume to full blast to test it since it is loud enough for the songs to be heard in my room. I'm not an audio expert, but in terms of sound quality, I feel that it has good bass and clear sound to enjoy. I have also tried the FM radio mode and it's working as expected. The speaker can still be used while charging, and it takes a couple of hours for it to be fully charged.
