Perfect but on VERY low volume
I bought this for low volume practice in a quiet apartment.
it works great but only up to 1/4 of the volume (9 o'clock),
immediately after that, every low note farts out, even on 4-string basses,
which means that if a truck goes by and the amp isn't 1m away from your ears, you won't hear what you're playing.
On the upside, the aux in rarely farts out, the overdrive is a parallel one, so you don't lose clarity and I was surprised about how low the amp's self-noise is (especially for 40€)
That being said, I would recommend it only for late night, very low volume use and definitely not with deep sounding basses.

Useful, if unspectacular
It's probably asking a bit much to expect this tiny little combo to have a studio or gig quality sound and indeed it does not. However, as a lightweight, very portable means of practicing without getting the big guns out and shaking the house to everyone's annoyance, I can't fault it! It is more robust than it feels and with a decent equaliser you can a reasonable tone.

Not bad for the money but
Works OK as a practice amp and definitely handy that it works on batteries. Format is light and portable. All in all not a bad deal for the money. But it can't hold a candle to the (admittedly much more expensive) Roland Micro Cube RX Bass either in terms of sound quality or volume.
The unit is listed as "two-way," but the small vertical speaker (tweeter?) appears to be just a decoy (no sound seems to come out of it), and the tone control too doesn't seem to do much either....
