Works fine, but don't use it much

Previous to this Epson product, I had a separate printer and scanner. To copy something, I used a software program that would use both the scanner and printer. But when I got a new computer in October 2011, I wanted to get rid of the old printer and scanner and replace them with an all-in-one device. That would be less complicated and save room on my office desk. I don't need a fax, as I don't even have a live phone line in my home office (I use my cell instead).

After some research, I found this product. It had what I wanted: a printer, copier, and scanner in one, but no fax. And I had used Epson printers before and found them to be reliable, and the price was very reasonable. So I ordered this multifunction device with the PC. It was rather easy to set up. I initially set it up via Wi-Fi with that computer, but when that junk Gateway computer crashed I got an&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/AAC-X4-Desktop-Computer/dp/B005J0R4D2/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">AAC-X4 Desktop Computer</a>. I initially had problems setting up the Wi-Fi, so I set it up via the USB cable.  That was probably a mistake, as I'm using an USB port unnecessarily, but the PC has plenty of ports, so I haven't bothered re-setting it.

But whether with the USB cable or with Wi-Fi, this device works just fine. The print speed is fast, and the printouts look very good. But to be honest, I do not use it much. I only printed a photo once to see what it looked like, and it looked as good as professional prints. But the pics I take with my&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Samsung-Galaxy-S5/dp/B00J4TK4B8/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Samsung Galaxy S5</a>, I just use in digital form and really have no need to print them. And I only rarely have need to print, copy, or scan anything.

In fact, when I ordered this device I also ordered the following items:

These were the recommended supplies for this device, but I only used one sheet of the photo paper and that is it. I have never had to change the ink in the printer, and I am still using paper I had before this printer. So I cannot review any of these supplies.

As for this multi-function device, it is now October 2014, so it is still working just fine after three years, but that is with very limited use. So I am giving it four stars for doing what I need it to do when I do need it. But since I do not know how durable it is, I cannot give it five stars. Maybe it deserves that rating, but I really don't know. But it is nice to have this device on the rare occasion when I need to use it. But that rating is for the $109 price I paid for it and coming with Amazon Prime, which was far less than the price I see it is now being sold for and without Amazon Prime. I'm not sure what happened there, but I am glad I got it when I did.

Handy to have but Noisy. Also doesn't pack enough punch to run anything with a big power draw (electric kettle didn't work on it) BUT runs electronics just fine, the internal fan makes a lot of noise sometimes. But it has powered multiple electronic devices just fine.

Works good, it just doesn't have as much power as said to have, and it cuts out too easy. .

The good:  works as advertised, if you supply it with at least a 15 amp source.  I can see this getting very warm if you don't supply it with sufficient amps when it's heavily loaded down.  I never demanded over 10 amp from it, so I can comment on what happens if you go any higher, but I would not advice it.  Under 10, and you can run it continuously, I did without excessive heat.  The switch build into the plug is a great idea. Very helpful.
The bad:  Not much. One of the 3 outlets failed after just a few uses, but the other 2 continue to work fine.  A resettable circuit breaker would be nicer than the simple fuse, but hey, what do you want at this price point?
Bottom line:  would buy again.

It works.  A bit slow on start up and there's a tiny lag that drives me nuts.  haven't used it for a while, if you don't care about these 2 cons, it'll be fine for what you need.

We don't use this a lot , but it works real good when we do

It works well, but note that you'll have to ALWAYS leave it plugged in.  Even with a brand new device, the battery will discharge to the point of uselessness if I leave it unplugged or off the charger for a couple days.  In a small apartment kitchen, it's nontrivial to have to permanently give up a power outlet if I want to be able to use this thing on demand.

Cheaply made but if you are not using it every day it works ok

I find I don't use it as much as I thought I would but it works
as advertised when I do.

As in other reviews, this thing works, but you can only do 1-2 tires at a time, since it needs a cooldown break every 8 minutes and the fill is very slow. The construction is not very durable. It works best when placed on a towel or similar, to keep it from walking around. But it works, and at this price point, it's a perfectly acceptable product.

a little pricey, but works fine & can be used several times

I have used this for briefer sessions of online activity, using the supplied antenna, and it is fine for that. Not a superior reach with it, but not bad. It does the job.

Now, using this adapter with another antenna--in my case an +18 dbi panel--tethered to the end of some active usb cables, I get all too many drops during what I want to be extended and uninterrupted sessions of, for example, streaming video from hulu.

I've read similar reviews of its bigger brother in the 500 mw (and now 1000 mw) size: Drops connection.

I also don't know if it is supplying the advertised 200 mw as wireless monitor reports 100 mw, and my old Hawking device which is a dish antenna of 50 mw power is still almost comparable and doesn't drop connection.

So, really maybe as much as 4 stars to stick it into the side of your laptop with the little rubber duck antenna, and just 2.5 stars for the job it does when it comes to just slightly more trying tests, like being connected to a better antenna and reaching out to nearby hot spots.

not bad. I don't use it as much as I should, but it's pretty good for the price

I haven't used this much yet, but seems to work fine.

Very short battery life, otherwise it works fine.

If you use rechargeable batteries, this is probably unnecessary. However, it works well with none of the hassles other reviewers have noted in the three months we have been using it. That said, it does not play nicely with&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Wii-Fit-Balance-Board-Glow-in-the-Dark-Silicone-Sleeve/dp/B0019N57M8/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Wii Fit Balance Board Glow in the Dark Silicone Sleeve</a>&nbsp;- causing a bulge in the sleeve and using some of the holes that the sleeve used for attachment. I do not like that I had to remove my battery cover, but aside from there being a place to place it on the unit I can offer no better suggestions. It was purchased at a ridiculously low price on Black Friday - but I would not honestly recommend it above standard rechargeable batteries, if that is what you are using.
