Consumer Reports For Brother Laser Printers

I purchased this Brother printer because Consumer Reports said it was the most "ink friendly" and wouldn't put me in the poor house. It has proven to be true over time.

I’ve had lots of printers over the years and the Brother laser printers I’ve had are the best. I just upgraded my brother laser to get the AirPrint feature, I had my last one for 12 years and it still works. I sure love the new model.

I have been buying Brother laser printers for home and 3 offices for 10 years and love the efficiency of Brother. THIS is by far the best printer I have owned for my small business - it is super fast and efficient and the print quality is spot on. I've owned several other multi-function laser's by Brother and this one exceeds all my expectations. Pros: Duplex scan, easy set up, speed of printing (single or duplex), customized buttons (we have one set to double side scan via email to Office Manager and use this daily, saves time choosing these options), runs quiet. Cons: None, owned for 3 months and no glitches.

We debated and reviewed several color laser printers. At first we thought the Brother 8610 was perhaps more than we needed. It was bigger and heavier. But now we see how well made it is. The printer materials are quality not plastic. It is quiet and does everything. Certainly recommend it.

This printer works so well! I've used Brother printers for years and have always been pleased with their performance. This is a laser printer which is a real advantage when there are periods of non use. I like this machine!!

I only use OEM toner cartridges in my printers so this is the only option for my Brother laser. The Brother cartridges are easy to use and I haven't had an issue yet.

Good for Laser printers, best price.

This printer was highly rated in Consumer Reports and it has not disappointed. It ran smoothly the first time and every time.

For disposable batteries, these are the best! They really do have 9x the capacity of standard batteries - Consumer Reports tested them. They ARE lithium batteries so they weigh less. I've never had any fire or overheating problems but I am aware that lithium batteries can have these problems. They have a long shelf life as well. I primarily use rechargeable batteries but I keep these in my camera bag as a backup. The price from B&H is competitive.

Very pleased with the quality of this screen. Noted evaluation in Consumer Reports as I was researching to upgrade a 10 year old screen. Upgrade necessary as I have initiated a project to edit and sell underwater photography. Was very pleased with the ease of unpacking and setting up the screen. Delivered with a convenient stand which I am using on my desk as well as two sets of cable to connect to computer. Was not familiar with the brand but am delighted with my first investment.
