Epson Perfection® 4490 Film Scanner (35 mm), Flatbed Scanner

Pros: Seems OK, if I can get it installed

Cons: Very poor documentation

Review: The installation process was extremely cumbersome, made much worse by the absence of a printed manual. There is a HTML file for the manual on the disk, but that is very hard to print out as a permanent reference. I went to Epson's web site to see if...

Pros: GE has covered every option in their design. It is everything and more.

Cons: The protective film was placed under the handles. You will never get it all off.

Review: I had never had a gas fueled oven before. We cranked up every burner, the lower oven and the main oven to 450?. Within a few minutes, the oven was at temp and held it. It cooks evenly with convection heat.

I love the center griddle burner...

Pros: Pretty, flexible, fun.

Cons: Stupid blue plasti wrap, stupid female gas coonnector.

The Bottom Line: Ignore the numeric ratings, just got it. Review is preliminary.

Review: Just arrived. HEAVY!

A snap to set up, although you should make sure to buy a gas hose and a double-male adapter since the stove does not necessarily come with a hose and it has a female plug on the gas inlet. Hoses from the hardware store...

Pros: AC powered. USB 2.0 bandwidth. Great software suite.

Cons: A bit bulky, not too bad.

The Bottom Line: For a stand-alone scanner, this is a wonderful machine. If that's what you're looking for, buy this thing.

Review: Howdy doody, folks. That's a question. You're supposed to answer (e.g. Great! Never Better! Been to hell and back!). Kidding. I'll get serious.

I bought this scanner about a month ago off Epson's clearance rack. For those who aren't...

Pros: Good software, excellent resolution, fast, clear crisp images.

Cons: Scanner forces itself to scan even if locked. No physical guide for laying out film.

The Bottom Line: It's an excellent scanner for the price. It provides high quality scans, and does it quickly. It's a good buy.

Review: We purchased this scanner for my office a few weeks ago and when it came in I was really excited. We don't do a lot of scanning and the only reason we picked up a scanner this nice was because it was being covered by the university life cycle...

Pros: Very easyto use, excellent scan quality

Cons: None that I have come across

The Bottom Line: Highly recommended because it is easy to use for those who need simplicity, but has a range of features available for those who want them.

Review: Never having used a computer scanner before buying this one, I was a bit apprehensive about the possibility of having to spend a lot of time learning how to use it. No worry! The installation was extremely easy, and the software makes scanning...

Pros: Good performance, easy to use

Cons: Wobbly cover

Review: I've had my Epson 4490 for about 10 months now and use it to scan a variety of materials: photos, text, illustration, transparencies. I've been very pleased with its performance with all of them. Moreover, it's extremely easy to set up and use. I'd...

Pros: Finally a home stove with high BTU output!

Cons: Confusing oven functions and oven probe that is difficult to use on smaller items.

The Bottom Line: Oh, go on! Splurge on yourself and get a nice stove this next time.

Review: Having worked in restaurants for many years (and having been a chef for two of those) I have very high standards in cookware. All of my knives are hand forged and are babied. My pots and pans are all high quality, heavy wall stainless. And my stove...
