the Jury Statement

Why We Chose It: The fact that this attractive little speaker doesn't require any power to operate is just so cool and unusual!

It stands out in a world of plastic-swathed speakers with their lengthy cords or endless parade of disposable batteries—a testament to clever design, ingenuity, and thinking outside (or is it inside?) the box.

The following criteria were considered for winning products:

• They are well-made and durable.

• They are made with eco-friendly, non-toxic materials.

• They are made in a way that parts can be separated for recycling; can be upcycled; can be returned to the manufacturer at the end of their useful life.

• They are made using fair labor.

• Their manufacture is non-polluting and resource-efficient.

• They are packaged and shipped conscientiously.

• They are from a company that has stated climate and/or sustainability goals.
