Balanced Jack outputs for this price!
The main advantage I see in this unit is what you get for the money. the real deal maker for me is the balanced jack outputs....it's the only one in it's price range that offer that. of course Bheri boasts the fancy crossfader, and it's fine but to me personally it doesn't make that much of a difference.
Sound wise, it comes off as a little harsh IMO. i'm using it with a pair of turntables and it could be the built-in phono preamp of the unit so i don't know if this applies to people using line level devices to connect to it.
the worst part about the unit for me is the pre-fader metering. you won't see it anywhere in the product documentation BUT(!!!) the meter on pre-fader status reads the sum of both input channels, so if you planned on checking how hot the track you're cueing next is, forget about it. it's kind of useless IMO to even have a pre-fader status if you cannot use it to see what's the input level of a given track and match it with the one currently playing....what I expected (I think it's reasonable) is that the prefader meter would tap the signal AFTER the cue crossfader and then you can match gains for tracks, otherwise, what are we using it for?pretty lights?
I use the unit at home and for fun so it doesn't bother me but in a DJ gig situation it would be impossible to work with.
it also seems that the crossfader curve select knob in my unit is soldered in reverse but that doesn't bother me as much.
All that being said, I would still recommend it because for the price class there is no mixer giving you the same capabilities.

Low Cost Mixer
I've bought the mixer just for the price and for the balanced outputs.
But I am very betrayed about the output of the headphones, the have no basses at all. Also the management of the headphone is very weird, there is no master output, just cue.
From the aesthetic point of view, it is very nice and clean, golden outputs, etc.
The faders seems like build in very high quality, the cross fader is also very good and soft, volume faders are to soft from my point of view, but the possibility to regulate their volume curve is also nice.
The mixer is very light, and well builded. I recommend you this device just if you don't use the headphones very much.

Very happy with this product
I bought this as my first mixer which I use at home to practice mixing records. The build quality is ok but i've started having issues with it after a couple of years of fairly light use.
