    Works pretty well for the price. After about 2 weeks of using it would not connect to 1 of my computers though. Thankfully I have another that it still seems to be working with.

    Solid, convenient device for my purposes

    Solid device for my purposes. I use it for basic documents and haven't tried it with photos, so unsure how it would handle higher quality images. For that purpose, it does the job and is much more convenient than using my flatbed scanner (which is across my home office. It isn't a huge deal, but doing multi-page scans is much easier/faster.) You need to ensure the paper is pushed all the way in or else you will get "stretched" scans, and that happens more than I would like. But I am using this for personal records only. If I were using it for external purposes (business need, etc.) then I would be rescanning these (and they happen about 1 out of every 6 or 7 pages.)

    excellent scanner, It hooks up very quickly and starts scanning fast. I like that it scans and allows you to either create a new document or compile a lot of documents into 1 file.

    Needed a scanner that scanned without a computer. Unfortunately you need to download software and no memory card scanning was an option.

    I purchased this product so that I can upload old images while visiting family throughout the country. I have since scanned and uploaded hundreds of pictures successfully. On occasion a picture would stall, but I realized that this issue was largely a result of the quality of the photo paper.

    Easy to handle and easy to use. Does a great job for a small device. Glad I got this brand. Compared to others, this appears to be well built and the Epson name speaks for it's self.

    Nice, compact scanner. Good image quality with easy to use software. As you can only feed one sheet at a time, it's best for low volume scanning.
