Sound
Great sound quality -- quiet, true, musical.
Quality
Good quality, except that one of my mono channels is going out.. and it might be more than one. Something fishy is going on, spontaneously, and I don't know what it is

Can't say enough good things about it. Looks great, sounds great, engineered great (runs significantly cooler than the $100 Alesis unit, but the Alesis MX6 is smaller and has (decent) built in effects, so maybe the extra circuitry causes the heat. Still, I feel better about using a separate effects unit with this Behringer.)
Sound
Very outstanding. Reflects clarity of source, probably best in price range/class. If I didn't know better, I'd say it actually improves the input.
Features
For $80 I'd say you couldn't do better. Lo Cuts and Gains for each of 4 balanced/unbalanced mono inputs, two additional stereo inputs, dual aux inputs/returns with individual controls, etc., etc. Hats off to German engineering.
Quality
Again, best in class for the price range. Solid construction exudes quality, very handsome design, sonic quality unsurpassed.
Value
Have tried several in the range, actually more expensive, and this unit surpasses others like Alesis and Samson in this class.
Manufacturer Support
Haven't needed any support, so I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. They have a nice website with downloads for everything I looked at, and the man's name is on every product, so I'm assuming the support is equal to the quality.
The Wow Factor
I wanted it and I got it, after trying others I chose to stick with Behringer.

"this Mixer is definitely worth at least TWICE it's retail price, without question. read up."
only because i want the next model up the ladder sooooo bad. i'm currently in the process of upgrading to the next model in the MX series of mixers. I want the 12 track with FX. another great buy @ $130.
But if i had no desire to buy another one, i would be 100% satisfied.
Sound
I dont have a crazy amount of experience with the product seeing as im 17, and record casually in my basement. but it is definitely a very versatile peice. My friends recorded their whole first CD with just that, and a Dell PC
Features
didnt come with much, other than the Phantom power adapter box. but it's not as if it needed anything..well, some behringer headphones would have ben a nice welcome present....(hint*hint*Uri Berhinger...im buying another mixer soon, keep the trend going..)
Quality
outstanding. that's the only thing to say. there is not one flaw anywhere on this mixer. Uri Behringer is an engineering genius.
Value
If nothing else, the price of this mixer is shocking. It's sooooo much stuff for sooo little money!
Manufacturer Support
Not, personally, but their website is pretty boss. nad the warranty i got was generous, al;though unneeded
The Wow Factor
its german electronics...so that's cool.
"Behringer" is fun to say. makes you sound rich.
its really compact, so it's heavier than it looks;
"Heavy" + "electronic device" = "cooool....".
No namby-pamby paintjob on this one. It's grey--the color of the metal its made of.....just how it should be.

"All I wanted were separate monitor and phone volume controls, but..."
I got this unit because it was the smallest mixer with balanced inputs and main outs. I'm really just using it to route the signal from my sound card to either my monitors or my headphones, i.e., pretty much as a volume control, so it's got way more features than I'll ever use, but for $80 so what. BUT, the morons at Behringer for reasons known only to themselves and perhaps to their therapists saw fit to require the main volume to be turned up to get any sound out the phones, and of course that's no good in a home studio situation where I want to switch between the monitors and the phones (which I do frequently) but don't want the monitors on while I'm listening to the phones.
So, I'm thinking the MX802A goes back, and I pick up another Mackie
1202, even though it doesn't have balanced stereo ins and takes up more real estate on my desk than I'd like.
