Best bang for the buck
Bought this for home practice, wasn't expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised with the sound and power this thing packs.
The materials don't feel cheap at all, everything works like you'd expect from a expensive Fender amp. Didn't think I'd be using this for anything but practice, turns out it's loud enough for band practice and I even use it for on stage monitoring when running the sound through a DI box. The low register tones aren't that loud, however, things get louder the higher you go. The only thing I can complain about is the EQ that doesn't really do anything due to the size ans power of this thing.
Keep in mind I play in a 6-piece semi-acoustic folk band with electric drums so things don't get that loud on stage, you might need something bigger if you play rock music.

For the price-unbeatable
Subjective observations only, I'm a beginner bass player. I can compare to smaller cheaper amps I've owned also.
Features are basic, but all a beginner needs, namely volume, bass, treble, middle.
Build quality is excellent, all jacks and knobs are reassuringly solid.
I owned cheap (30-40 euro) bass amps in the past, and it's a complete waste of money. You owe it to your ears and your music learning to spend a little more to get something like the 'rumble'.
It's always subjective anyway, were I a better player I could probably make the amp sound better. I'm using with the Harley Benton PB-50 which is an entry level bass, and I guess the instrument and amp are well matched.

Perfect for practise
Use: I bought this to be able to practise at home
Pros: it's small, reliable. It has all the inputs (instrument and line-in) and outputs (speaker or headphones) that you need to practise in good conditions. It also has basic and meaningful settings. It is very easy to get a good tone with this amp, which might be difficult with most 15W amps.
Cons: none at this time

Top Quality Amp with Excellent Service.
From the time Thomann sent the Amp it was at my door in Victoria, Australia within seven working days! Fantastic service to match the the quality of this terrific little practice amp.
The Fender Rumble 15 is of solid construction with great tones! Quiet enough to practice inoffensively in a confined room or it can be loud enough to let the neighbours know you take your music seriously.
You can't go wrong with this top notch practice amp!

Read this if yours doesn't sound right!
When I plugged in and played the first notes on my bass, the lowest notes came out distorted (the speaker made a "farting" noise). I didn't have time to test it further that day, but I was disappointed and thought I had received a defective product.
However, today I took off the front grille and gently pushed on the speaker cone a few times. After I did that, the lowest notes sound clean and not distorted. I guess the cone just needed loosening up! Phew!
This little thing is unbelievable value for money.

Nice!!!
Love the new Fender Rumble series. I've yet to find another bass combo that sounds as good as these. The sound is consistent across the Rumble series. The 8" speaker is very tight and punchy. Surprisingly loud through headphones too. The small footprint makes it ideal for home use.

Disappointing tone
I can’t seem to find a tone I like with this amp. I am a guitar player who has recently taken up bass. I’m pairing it with a Squire Affinity Jazz bass. I’ve had it for a few months now and don’t really like it. I’ve tried lots of configurations to no avail. Would like to return if I could. Spend a bit more and get something better. Not recommended.
