I was very skeptical about getting this amp, but I was getting a guitar and I needed a small amp for my apartment. I bought it based on reviews. I was very pleasantly surprised by the sound quality. It is simple in features but you really need little more than clean and OD for a practice amp. I also use it a speaker for my phone and computer and it sounds very good (with a little EQ on those devices), noting that since this is a guitar amp, it is mono, so playing music off it will leave certain parts out :) if mine broke, I think I would buy it again.
