  • brad's Experience

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Dec 15, 2007
    Pros: AC powered. USB 2.0 bandwidth. Great software suite.
    Cons: A bit bulky, not too bad.

    Summary: Howdy doody, folks. That's a question. You're supposed to answer (e.g. Great! Never Better! Been to hell and back!). Kidding. I'll get serious. I bought this scanner about a month ago off Epson's clearance rack. For those who aren't familiar, ... read more

  • Epson Perfection is aptly named

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 7, 2008
    Pros: Very easyto use, excellent scan quality
    Cons: None that I have come across

    Summary: Never having used a computer scanner before buying this one, I was a bit apprehensive about the possibility of having to spend a lot of time learning how to use it. No worry! The installation was extremely easy, and the software makes scanning almost ... read more

  • Scans like a pro, love the software options.

    Pros: Good software, excellent resolution, fast, clear crisp images.
    Cons: Scanner forces itself to scan even if locked. No physical guide for laying out film.

    Summary: We purchased this scanner for my office a few weeks ago and when it came in I was really excited. We don't do a lot of scanning and the only reason we picked up a scanner this nice was because it was being covered by the university life cycle upgrade ... read more

    Pros: Finally a home stove with high BTU output!
    Cons: Confusing oven functions and oven probe that is difficult to use on smaller items.

    Summary: Having worked in restaurants for many years (and having been a chef for two of those) I have very high standards in cookware. All of my knives are hand forged and are babied. My pots and pans are all high quality, heavy wall stainless. And my stove is ... read more

  • Pretty, flexible, heavy.

    Pros: Pretty, flexible, fun.
    Cons: Stupid blue plasti wrap, stupid female gas coonnector.

    Summary: Just arrived. HEAVY! A snap to set up, although you should make sure to buy a gas hose and a double-male adapter since the stove does not necessarily come with a hose and it has a female plug on the gas inlet. Hoses from the hardware store come with ... read more

    Pros: Good quality scans, powerful software.
    Cons: Flimsy, didn't last. Waste of money, one more piece of garbage on the planet.

    Summary: I got this scanner about 16 months ago. I was looking for a scanner with an automatic sheet feeder, at a reasonable price, and the choice was limited. But I was pleased with the Epson. It provided excellent quality scans and the feeder was very useful. I

  • Good but has issues

    Pros: Lots of settings,  great copied image.
    Cons: Stops scanning.Must open software each time to start a new scan.

    Summary: I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to electronics but I thought I'd share my experience thus far. I've used this machine to scan 750 photos over 24 hours. (Not straight) Scanner has stopped scanning midway through a scan 10 times to date. Must

  • Excellent, but lousy documentation

    Feb 17, 2007
    Pros: Seems OK, if I can get it installed
    Cons: Very poor documentation

    Summary: The installation process was extremely cumbersome, made much worse by the absence of a printed manual. There is a HTML file for the manual on the disk, but that is very hard to print out as a permanent reference. I went to Epson's web site to see if

  • Good multipurpose scanner

    Pros: Good performance, easy to use
    Cons: Wobbly cover

    Summary: I've had my Epson 4490 for about 10 months now and use it to scan a variety of materials: photos, text, illustration, transparencies. I've been very pleased with its performance with all of them. Moreover, it's extremely easy to set up and use. I'd

  • This is one heavy duty all purpose range

    Pros: GE has covered every option in their design. It is everything and more.
    Cons: The protective film was placed under the handles. You will never get it all off.

    Summary: I had never had a gas fueled oven before. We cranked up every burner, the lower oven and the main oven to 450°. Within a few minutes, the oven was at temp and held it. It cooks evenly with convection heat. I love the center griddle burner. This
