I ordered this item from buy.com through ebay. I was shocked at how super quickly I received it, the purchase process was very easy and it is the best scanner for an amazingly affordable price. I would order from buy.com again in a heartbeat. Thanks for the great service.

Had to replace older scanner because HP didn't support Vista. I'm impressed with the speed and quality of the scans. Rescanning several family albums and like the controls available during scanning. Installation was a breeze and I like the fact that there's an on/off button. Not enough peripherals have that anymore.

I bought this scanner for school purposes, and I love it. It is very simple and intuitive to use.

I need a scanner to scan paper, whether it be wedding invitations I receive, business cards, web page printouts, email printouts, forms, etc. I had the same HP printer for over ten years (the 6300) and was quite comfortable with it. Either the hardware or software died (not sure which or why) and it was easier to just get a new scanner. Somehow the current HPs were not appealing to me, either because of cost or more likely the reviews. So I came to buy.com to look around and read reviews and I picked this Epson, and I'm here to report that I'm very pleased. The key to a scanner (for me) is the software. Any software needs time to learn and understand. Once I understood the software, I was off and running. I scan maybe 5 pieces of paper a day. I'm a low-end but very consistent user. I depend on the scanner to keep my life and work in order. I haven't scanned any photographs with this scanner. (I scanned most of my photographs over the years.) When I do have a photo to scan, I'm sure this scanner will do a good enough job for me. I like that has the slide attachment, which I haven't used yet, but I do have slides to scan and I'm sure it'll do a fine job. It's a nice size, very attractive, and has a flat top so when not in use, you can lay stuff on the scanner. For me, this is a great scanner. I am very very pleased.

Bought as a replacement for Epson 1650 which gave out after a while (I'm guessing power failure cause it wouldn't turn on). This scanner is slightly lighter. The adjustable lid is nice. Feels a tiny bit flimsy, but all light things do. Has a power off button, which is nice for infrequent use. One of the requirements is the ability to scan slides. This one has 4 slots for 4 slides. Does a decent job. The software is ok (I didn't update from previous epson scanner). A good scanner overall.

I bought this scanner because the microsoft and Visioneer people made my fairly new scanner obsolete under Vista. I consider it a good value for the money since my scanning needs are simple. I have not used the more challenging features but will when I get into it more. Scanner was as advertized, simple to setup and use.

Installation: Following the simple step-by-step instructions on the Quick Start fold-out, it was easy to get the scanner ready and installed. Operation: 4 buttons on the scanner, each clearly marked. Simple to operate, each button activates its own application tool onscreen, whether pdf or email attachment etc. Pros: Very impressive output of color photos, documents. Accurate color reproduction. Having the extendable hinge really works when scanning pages in thick books. Cons: Noisy in operation (louder than my microwave). Unless you chose a specific application to use all the time, it is slightly inconvenient to have to make the application selection every time you switch on and start to make scans. Overall: I think I have received good value for my money.

The install for Vista took a long time but it was worth it. No compatability problems as with Canon and HP. It works great with photographs, and the ability to scan in slides and negatives is a real plus. I am scanning in boxes of old slides that I may never have seen again without this scanner. This is the first Epson product that I have purchased since the pre-PC days when Epson printers were the best around. It won't be my last Epson purchase.

I was blown away at how easy this scanner was to use but even more by the awesome quality and performace. It is an amazing piece of hardware for the price. I'm a jewelry designer and bought it to scan my jewelry with and the resolution and details in my scans are better than the images I was getting photographing my creations. I highly recommend this scanner to anyone looking for a scanner that is able to scan 3D objects. The included software is above average in all respects. Delivery was fast also. Buy.com has made me a happy man.

Great product, integrates really well on my Mac, as do all Epson products. Slide/negative scanner was a bit tricky at first, but once I figured it out, it was easy. In the pro/mode, the variables presented are extensive and much more than I will ever need. It is an attractive device and seems to be very well made.

I bought it for a non-profit to use as an inexpensive document scanner because it got a good review in one of the computer magazines; also, because I own two other Epson scanners and they work well. I just installed this one and it does what I want it to do, scan documents into PaperPort. I haven't used it to scan photos but I'm sure it will do the job if that is needed. It's a lot less expensive than the other scanners so is a great value for what I need -- I expected to have to pay more.

After looking at and pricing scanners in retail stores, I decided to check your site. The Epson Perfection V200 Photo Scanner had the features I was looking for and the price was too good to pass up. The software was easy to install, the operation is simple to understand and the quality of the product is excellent. I would not hesitate to highly recommend this scanner to anyone.

I have been using scanners since 1993 and this scanner for the price is unbelievable. I had a box full of slides and negatives form the early 80s. I scanned all of them in one night with excellent results. I would recommend this to all my friends

Haven't used this scanner for photos as of now. It works great and easy to set up the OCR. Using the scanner as a copying machine is also very easy and quick. Good deal and good value. I highly recommend this product.

Had this scanner for several weeks. Setup was easy, there are buttons for everything including power off (no wasting energy), no compatibility issues nor conflicts with Windows XP Home, Photoshop, Illustrator, or any MS Office app. Scanning artwork, magazines, and photos were all great quality for 300 dpi inkjet printing. Have not used it for slide/negative scanning nor OCR, which is more about software anyways. Overall great deal for the price and everyday home use.

I've been using Epson printers & scanners for many years with great satisfaction. I researched the Epson scanners and came up with the V200 being the best of it class. Once I installed the drivers and added software (which is a royal pain going through all the user agreements of each program), I had problems getting the scanner to do what I wanted. It would not let me scan using the PDF application regardless of what I did. I had to reinstall 3 times (plus remove all previous Epson scanner applications which I had on my computer) to get the PDF to work. I contacted Epson Tech support via email and they never got back to me. Tech support is both a joke and a waste of time... they do not respond...not a good sign of customer support service. Now I cannot get the scanner to copy my color slides without getting an error message. Again Tech support has been worthless. This probably will be my last Epson product I buy. The quality has gone down hill from the early years when Epson made good products. Expect to be challenged when you buy this scanner.
