Good but the "White" brother, I think better for me (or the HB-20R)
I got it initially at Greece from Thomann, interchanging a Harley Benton HB-20R that came in bundle with my Harley Benton S-620 TR Rock Series, having first eaten the bait of top-side-located knobs on Mooer instead of the classic side-side of HB, which was preferable for me having to bend "down there" to be able to see the labels, in order to make adjustments.
Afterwards I got the same at my second point of activity/house, UAE, for uniformity reasons.
My selection was based on some presentations I had seen at YouTube from testers. They were evaluating the "White" sibling and I thought that the existence of White and Black was a matter of colouring, of personal preference and matching with the environment and instruments only.
So when I had to choose between the White or the Black at Greece initially, where both were available from Thomann, I ordered the "Black to don't be stained easily", as stupidly I thought.
The similar that followed at Dubai, identical as aforementioned for uniformity and moreover because it was the unique option at UAE.
Afterwards regretfully I discovered that the two models have DIFFERENT capabilities and modelling/other types-brands simulation. Something that nobody thought to mention. And unluckily the suitable for me was the "White" one rather... not that Black is bad, just my modelling preferences are nearer to the White. The return/change window has closed at both countries, so I have to compromise and live for a while with the "Black".
And... I feel from the few, 1-2 hours only I tested the cheaper, yet very decent Harley Benton HB-20R before to stupidly apply for return/change with the Mooer Black, that the sound of HB was nearer to my taste. I'm getting older yet still learning...

Love it, way better than expected
For the money I wasn't expecting much. I had a little katana mini which was OK but didn't have much output and I wanted a little practice amp to sit under a coffee table and yet looked good.
First of all the looks. Whenever anyone sees it they immediately comment on it's 50's styling and how the blue dial was perfect.
But, most importantly, the sound. Some of the amps are a little too rocky for me, I play Jazz/ blues but overall for a practice amp I have zero complaints. It's really there to replace a Yamaha THR which was ok, a pain as it always suffer from a buzz caused by a short and I'm actually more of a fan of this Mooer and it's sounds. There's options for pretty much anything I want to play.
Our Bass player plugged in his Warwick and was impressed, it's a versatile piece of kit. Not enough low end for him to gig with but he was happy enough. I guess that's a good compliment.

Nice combo for kids bedroom
I've bought this combo for my nephew. He only starts playing guitar, but he wants to sound as a megastar! And my sister wants to live in peace and quiet. Dilemma :)
Here is where Mooer Hornet comes in. Cool, stylish, has everything that kid and his mom expects from it. Thank you Mooer, one happy family fed :)
I have tried many small combos from "classic" brands for home use, and was disappointment with their sound, features and look.. This is the best choice for hobbyists on my opinion. Modeling amp is a modelling amp. Just don't expect it to be a replacement of a real tube amp on staage, and you will be happy.
A lot of amps emulated, not just clean and overdrive. Effects enriches the sound, so for home playing you actually don't need anything more.
Controls - a bit unclear for classic amp user, but you just should get just to it, and then you will understand why it is done that way.
Bluetooth is a must for modern home combos.

The Black one has different amp models to the White one
Its ok for the money you spend, won't blow your socks of, but, perfect for sitting in beside the television and noodling away with your electric guitar (this is why I bought it, cheap with a reverb, delay and tuner). Thomman does not make clear that the amp model presets are different on the black and white versions of this amp. The white might have suited me better reading the list of presets on the manual, but, I've the black version. Doesn't really matter as it's only a toy for me to mess with, rather than pulling out my Mark 3 every time I want to play a few tunes in front of the TV.

A little amp with a big sound
This amplifier is ideal to practice on and with a choice of 9 different classic amp settings there is something for everybody. The sound is unbelievable and it also has bluetooth so that I can play along to downloaded backing tracks without masses of wires. Take a look on you tube as there are several videos. I am well pleased with it.

Not the greatest sound
Pros:
-Lots of built in FX and sounds
-Solid build and small footprint
Cons:
-Quite poor sound. No separation between notes. Chords sound very cluttered and messy
-FX are cool but most are very subtle, even when maxed out
-Most of the distorted tones are too similar to each other. The cream version has a better variety of sounds.
I would spend a little more and get a Katana or a nice tube amp though

Very beautiful, authentic.
I have been looking for something old school for a long time and found it. The sound is good, the quality is good. Perfect for a beginner guitarist or just playing at home.
