After researching systems I decided to purchase Sonos. I started with a Sonos One and have been very happy with it. And had planned on ultimately replacing my theatre system with Sonos. Not any more. I purchased a pair of Roams in May with the intent on using them in a family room and outside around the pool. I don’t think I have ever been so disappointed in a purchase. The battery life is horrible even when not in use. I charged them three days ago, went to try them today, and they are down to 15%. Ridiculous! I have an older JBL speaker that cost half the price and perform better than the Roams. Why Sonos would develop a product that doesn’t easily integrate to their other products with such poor performance is beyond me. I regret not sending them back within the 45 day return period.

Hi
Thanks for your feedback, and it’s unfortunate that you’re not enjoying your experience with your Roams.
If you plan on not using them for any extended period of time, I suggest powering them down completely, as opposed to placing them in sleep mode. You can do this by holding the power button on the back for 5 seconds, until you hear the shutdown chime.
If you’re still experiencing poor battery issues, you could submit a system diagnostic and get in touch with our customer care team who can review the results and see if there are any issues with your Roams.
