I absolutely LOVED mine. Had it for 2 years with ZERO issues.
It's NOT a club mixer, or a gigging DJ's mixer - it's a MASSIVELY featured bedroom DJ mixer. Keep in installed in one place, and it'll be fine.
Re: the cross-fader - I was surprised at how good it actually was. It is nice and loose - great for scratching. It's a Behringer proprietary fader (X1 Infinium) and they currently go for £25 (bargain). The cut in is not great (cut in is a problem on ANY fader that is not fully adjustable), but it's easily adjustable by doing the "Credit Card Mod" (check Youtube for how to do it).
It's definitely NOT a piece a crap, and once you do the credit card mod on the fader, scratching will be a pleasure! The only issue with scratching, is the placement of those eq kill buttons...
You will not find a more feature rich, and FUN mixer for anywhere NEAR the same money.
Combine scratching with the 2 FX units and the sampler, and you are SERIOUSLY gonna have a BLAST.
(If I ever had to sell my DJM-850, I'd be buying a DDM4K without hesitation).
