I brought a super-cheap Amazon basics one, and then didn't cry when I drop-kicked it the first weekend I had it. Three years ago, it made a big difference which one you brought, but these days even the cheaper ones are... if not great, decent (ish). If the MiL wants to buy you something nice, and you really want a bluetooth speaker, UE or Bose are good. On the other hand, if she just wants to throw money at you, maybe go out for a nice meal, or a gig. The price difference between a cheap no-name duffbox and a balls-out speakerboxxx can be about the same price as a sit-down tasting menu for two.
