help needed on mixer choice

[king coe]

i have a good friend who is looking to buy a descent mixer round the 200 and under mark.
im looking for good quality rather than gimmicks and fx and bullshit, just a good quality sturdy unit that is going to be a quality product to sit by his cdj1000s,an allen and heath quality would be nice

ive lost touch with whats new really can people recommend anything.
