If I had to give it's pros and cons:
Pros:
Easy to set up
Really portable
Easy to learn on
Cheap
Full Rekordbox Lisence
Cons:
Mixer is tight and knobs small so you will need practice to adapt
Can't disable scratch mode so carefull touching the wheels
Software does lag sometimes because it's still pretty new
To use on bigger gigs sound card might not be enough
Overall:
It's a great begginer/back up controller due to it's portability and standarzed layout, even thought some might say knobs and faders feel cheap it is a really affordable controller so knobs and fader work really well for the price point this contriller is at, sound card works great for home build or small events (tried it on a 1000 people event and was impressed with the volume and sound, so don't uderestimate it either) so this makes the controller a great option to jump in, specially if you want to jump in the club game at some point, the software has it's details but have to say, Pioneer is doing a pretty good job with it, and having the liscense included just makes it grate for a first controller!!
There are tons of tutorials using this specifically controller on YouTube, this controller has tons of capabilities, and when used in conjunction with your computer, you can really make your setup, with this as the remote so to speak, sing. With one song being controlled by one side, and one on the other, plus the various effects and manners in which you can modify the tracks’ sounds, this controller allows you to experience a musical playground of sorts, where you’re in control.
You will use this with RekordBox, Pioneer’s proprietary controller software - in this you will organize your tracks into crates (which are folders of music ((can’t have duplicates, organize the contents - it’s just to house tracks like all of your House music, let’s say))), and playlists. On the software you can set cue points, loops, etc - it will also show the BPM and key of your tracks to help you mix various songs together.
Pioneer is the most well known brand of DJ controllers, CDJs, and mixers - so learning on this will set you up to be comfortable with basically everything else that’s out there. A fantastic piece of equipment to learn on or dramatically improve your skills on.
I’m not saying that it is easy to learn - anything amazing like this takes time, but this is the place to start, and with some time, attention, and practice, you could use this to make music, mashup songs, create amazing build ups and drops, and DJ parties and so much more

If you're new to DJ'ing or really want to learn I highly recommend buying this product. It comes with a Rekordbox DJ license key as well. Rekordbox DJ is by far one of the best DJ programs to date, I know some people prefer to use VirtualDJ over this however I like the program provided by Pioneer. I'm able to manage tracks based off of numerous criteria. And the track analysis is pretty through the roof. Others have complained that the program reads songs incorrectly however this hasn't been an issue for me.
5 stars all around, I'm highly impressed with this product and its helped open a lot of doors for me in the future. Thank you, Pioneer!

I use beatport and beatport Link, so for a very small monthly free I can stream all the music I want and create playlists, and I don't have to buy a single track. That alone is a game changer. If you're a beginner, this is a must have!
The only downside is it is a bit light and flimsy, but if it stays in one place it should be good. I also bought a decksaver cover for it, which was kind of expensive for what it is, but it fits perfectly and looks good, and if it protects it from dust then it's worth it!
