The Epson Perfection V39 ($99.99) is basically a throwback to the kind of flatbed scanner that used to be standard. Most flatbeds today can scan film, a design choice that's largely a response to the popularity of MFPs, which rarely include film-scan capability.

High-quality photo scans; Fully automatic mode for easy scanning; Scans to editable text and searchable PDF formats

No film-scan capability; Lacks bundled applications

I purchased this scanner to replace an old Canon scanner which wasn't supported anymore. For me the size is perfect; it fits right on a shelf next to my computer. The unit scans very quickly and produces very good to excellent scans.

We needed a scanner to my husbands work documents and needed something simple and reliable. This is perfect and very easy to use. Has many other options for pictures. Arrived very quickly by Walmart. All in all a WIN WIN!

I had a Canon scanner and upgraded to Win-10. They would not release a new driver so I needed a new scanner and it was not going to be a Canon. I reviewed the ratings and this is the best I could find for my needs.

It's great. The only issue I have is that I often need to push the scan button twice as I get a warning message about not being able to communicate. I don't know if this is the scanner's fault or not. Other than that it does the job very, very well.

While I am pleased with the performance of this scanner, especially for the price, there is one issue I wasn't nuts about. When installing the software, you don't have a choice as to where to install it, so it was installed on my small SSD boot drive instead of my 2GB storage drive.

The document feeder on my old Epson scanner recently stopped working and I decided to replace with a flatbed scanner, as I have many old photos to scan. For under a hundred bucks, this is a pretty impressive piece of hardware. Downloading and installing the software was a snap.

I purchased this to replace my v33 perfection scanner. My 3 in one printer had issues with scanning due to upgrades in the operating system. I love this scanner, energy efficient, compact size, performs as well as it looks.

It works on Linux natively without a windows VM, but the interface is very unintutive and you have to do some very (easy) steps in the terminal to get it working for you. Still a bit of a hassle to re-assemble multi-page docs manually, but this is what worked for me - Download drivers from here:...

This product is very easy to use and meets all of my expectations. Great value for money.
