I have the UE Boom 2, great speaker with excellent sound and pretty good battery. I mostly use it in my garage and it's held up well.

Get this and thank me later. I have owned about (not exaggerating) 20 different bluetooth speakers including bose, jbl, beats, sony, and Logitech. Hands down the best speaker for the money in my opinion is the UE Boom, or UE Megaboom if you can afford it. It's indestructible (we literally played football with the speaker in a pool and with drops and all it was fine), completely waterproof, has an incredible battery life, and can easily be paired with a second UE boom for stereo if you so desire. There really is not a better designed bluetooth speaker around at the moment and it sounds pretty damn good.

I'm only half joking.
I'll link to some stuff I bought that I've found useful.
My office has all mounted routes, so I don't walk door to door but rather I drive mailbox to mailbox. Instead of headphones, I use a bluetooth speaker and I can't imagine going through a workday without it. So headphones or a speaker, depending on whether your fiance primarily walks or drives on his routes, is a great idea.
A nice water-resistant backpack comes in handy, and maybe even an insulated lunch box or waterbottle/thermos.
This may sound stupid, but when I get home aromatherapy helps me relax and sleep. I bought a little InnoGear oil diffuser off of Amazon and I like the Prime Natural oils like Good Night and Anxiety Relief. It's just a chill way to end the day.
Logitech makes something called UE BOOM or UE MEGABOOM.
the regular boom sounds awesome and can be found for 199 or less.

save up, buy this, be happy
UE Boom 2 seems to be the best in that range.
I love my UE Boom. Pricier than others, but it's one of the more highly rated/highest rated bluetooth speakers out there.
On the go, to work, or to the gym I wear these, one charge normally lasts me like 2 and half days of regular use.
I have the same family of speaker you pictured but the second generation in black. Got it for like a blue bill on a christmas sale. I take that to friends houses just in case they got some extra weak set up shit.
I game and "designated dj" with these turtle beach x01s
On my new PC i have these old logitech speakers and subwoofer combo that still boom, got them a few years back for like $20ish
On my main TV i just have the stock built in speaker.
Usually 180 on amazon. started at 200

By UE Boom 2, do you mean the UE MEGABOOM? If you paid $270 for the Boom 2, then you got ripped pretty hard.
I use the MEGABOOM at work in a warehouse, and that baby pumps out sound for it's size. It blows the BOOM/BOOM 2 clear out of the water. Easily the best effortlessly portable bluetooth speaker I've owned, and I've went through 4 different brands at work. It has the best sound quality:volume ratio of all four. It doesn't distort at max volume, and lasts a solid 3 hours at max volume in 35 degrees Fahrenheit (I work in a giant refrigerator. The cold nukes battery life.). I can still make out the music it's playing over the Tailgator that coworkers have.
If you can spare the space, go with the Tailgater. It lasts me all day at work (8 to 10 hours) at 75% volume and it will only lose 1 bar of battery out of 4, and it's surprisingly cheap for what it is. It will distort if you max out both your bluetooth device and the speaker itself, though. However, if you're looking for something portable with some low end, this will satisfy your needs. Oh, and it comes with a microphone. Never used it, but just pointing it out.
How nice :)
We swear by our UE BOOM blue tooth speaker. It's portable and the sound quality is amazing. This tiny thing gets loud! It's also water resistant so can withstand some splashing from our grown up cannon balls. My parents also use one when golfing. They have had theirs for a few years and it has really held up. Also the battery life is amazing. I am buying us a second one because we saw a call blue one with a wave pattern that is much cooler than our blue one. The range is great to. We'll leave our phone by our kitchen window and the speaker will still work outside about 50-60 feet away. We got ours on Amazon.
