Reviews

Brother MFC-7440N

The Brother MFC-7440N prints quickly and is fairly inexpensive to sustain, but we simply can't get behind a printer with poor quality graphics, significant hardware defects, and a boring design.
Pro-Ject Debut III/Phono USB

The Pro-Ject Debut III/Phono USB turntable is a great turntable which simplifies archiving recordings on a PC — even if it still doesn't make it easy.
Brother HL-2170W

The Brother HL-2170W laser printer can be the perfect money saving sidekick to your existing inkjet, but don't expect it to handle even the most minor graphic jobs.
HP Colour LaserJet CM1017

The HP Colour LaserJet CM1017 MFP is a great choice for small offices that need a multifunction laser with excellent print quality.
Samsung ML-2571N

The Samsung ML-2571N mono laser printer has the right combination of price and features for a home office user with basic printing needs.
Samsung SCX-4200

With great print quality and decent speeds, the Samsung SCX-4200 is a no-brainer for a home office or very small office on a budget.
Samsung CLX-2160 AIO

Samsung's cute little colour MFP wins points with us for its compact style, although otherwise it's a deeply average printer.
Samsung CLP-300

Less than stellar print quality and glacial colour printing mar this otherwise admirable stab at shrinking the colour laser printer and making them more user friendly.
