Enough for a small gig
Bought this to use for a few small gigs in small pubs.
The intention was to use it with 2 microphones, bass guitar and keyboard, having two guitars using amps and drums by themselves, having the output sent to the PA system and a set of monitors.
This little mixer did the job perfectly, allowing enough control to adjust settings on the fly. I would've loved some compression on the first channel for the microphone, but it's not going to change the fact that this is a quality mixer on a tight budget.
The construction of the mixer feels very solid and stable, wouldn't be afraid if this fell off the table once or twice during a gig. The knobs feel just a bit loose, but that's just the plastic bit above the pots that aren't a perfect fit - doesn't affect the functionality of this outstanding piece of gear in any possible way.
-----TLDR;
If you are looking for a mixer to start doing your thing or need it for small tasks (such as small gigs), this will TOTALLY do the job.
I recommend this if you want many inputs and enough outputs, along with the option of having 3-way EQ that works great (active controls).

Super awesome mixer for the price
Using it for my drummer in-ear setup. Also perfect for small bands/bar gigs and similar. Functionally looks like a Behringer Xenyx 802 clone, but this has got more channels! FOH mix goes to me via XLR in channel 1, I add the click via channel 5/6. I can finally not get deaf from using wedges that are too loud, especially when everyone starts to turn up sound because they "cannot hear themselves".
Test it for 1 hour and you will know all of it's functions perfectly.
Only con that I found is that the FX send is post-fader, meaning, if you wanted to send something back to the Front of House (i.e. backing track channel), then it's very important that everything you change in your personal monitor mix will affect the FOH mix as well. I found it out only after buying the item. This information is not mentioned in the manual or product description.
Otherwise it's super easy to operate and understand. I recommend getting a small case where you can put the mixer, it's power block (it has two screw holes in the corners), DI Box, Backing track device and extension cord. Open the case, plug in your extension cord at the venue, plug the XLR from FOH into your mixer, output to stage DI Box, put your in-ears in and you're good to go! Helps save time with setting up/breaking down.

Decent small, or backup mixer. Good value for money.
I bought this as a small mixer which is sometimes used for vocal gigs, and I like to keep it in my bag in case of problems with my larger desk - it's handy to have a plan B in case of disaster!
It is a simple mixer, without too many options, but this is ideal for what I want. I've seen earlier versions of this mixer and they have improved the power supply connector, although the actual power cord is still a bit on the thin and weedy side. I needed to adjust/tighten the cable clamp next to the power socket as it had worked loose after a few months.
It's very small and light, and does the job well.
If I was being very critical, I would prefer a slightly more heavy duty power lead, and a couple of XLR outputs in addition to the existing jack outputs would be nice, but then the unit would need to cost more. This does a very fine job for the price.

Well pleased with the T.mix 802
I am using the 802 as a break out mixer for the drum mics as we don't have enough inputs in our 12 channel main mixer. The 802 was selected as it has 4 x mic inputs as well as enough inputs to get a mix from the main desk to drive some in-ear monitors for the drummer. So far the 802 has proved rock solid and gives a nice clear output both to the main desk and monitors.

Great little mixer
Very simple to use.I use it for a duo I play in with two 8 inch active speakers to make a simple and quick small pa. Sound quality is fine, controls are easy, rotary not slide at this price. One slight criticism is the loication of the main out sockets is not in the most logical part of the desk but you soon get used to it. Altogether a good little desk for the money and it does exactly what I need it to. Fantastic packaging and delivery service from Thomann as usual.

Basic and good sound mixer
The best buy and investment! Works good so far for already three years of extensive usage. Fits my home studio and also very easy to transport to the other place to play with the band.

Best mixer in this price range
I bought this purely for home usage. I wanted to created my own little wet / dry / wet system for my own amusement. Needless to say that it works like a charm. This mixer is very easy to use and has good indication of what the knobs and switches are for. I felt like there's a really slight sound coloring going on but it's barely noticeable. The only thing that is missing is the ability to switch the phantom power for an individual channel but for this price it is understandable why it's missing.

Very good basic mixer
This is a highly compact, very simple, very basic mixer with 4 mic preamps and 2 (4 if you include stereo L-R) line level inputs. I purchased one as an 'emergency backup' for a digital console. It is so small and light you will never hesitate to take it with you, and it has all the basic functions you need you get you out of trouble fast (provided you can manage with this number of inputs). I did not need built-in effects, as those are provided by a range of external vocal effect units that I already have and use as part of our 'acoustic' rig. As such, this little mixer is perfect for my intended purpose. The self-noise level is much better than I expected for the price! The preamps are quite clean and neutral. The EQ controls are basic, but effective. The metering is also very basic, but it does have 'clip' indicators for all six inputs and the 4 coloured LED's on the main outputs are enough to get the job done. Verdict: Incredible value!

Great mixer
Great mixer for the price range.
The aux send filters the output in the low frequencies which make it useless for sending audio to samplers (in my case)
