    We bought this scanner so we could keep an electronic copy of documents we were required to complete when we travel in Europe. This scanner did not disappoint.

    Does the job but is slow and you have to be very deliberate when feeding the paper.

    A little clumsy at first. Not very stable--sometimes the document will shift and slide as it goes through the scanner, and the image comes out crooked. Images come out with varying degrees of clarity. Not recommended for professional use, OK for personal, non-important documents.

    Slow scanning. Requires multiple steps to save the scanned documents. One sided only. If you’re looking for a portable scanner that will only be used to scan a few documents, then this might be worth it. Disappointed in this overall.
