I haven't got that one, but do have a Toshiba one that I'm currently using to plow through old photos from my parents and early ones of my kids - it's great and given my eyesight I see no problems with the quality. It's freeing up lots of cupboard space.

I bought one, scanned all my pics, then sent it back :blush:

Now I'm really annoyed it sold out lol!

Was it any good Burlz?

Yeh was fine. Nothing special but it did the job. I had a few larger photos which wouldn't fit, which was a bit annoying and means you cant use it for documents but for standard size photos its fine. I didn't experience any of the quality problems mentioned in he reviews (white lines etc).

I thought it was expensive for what it was, which is why I didn't keep it. It would be better value if you were sharing it with several people.

I bought one and found it really easy to use as I'm a non techie and the picture quality is pretty good( some of our old photos were never brilliant in the first place) I put the cards into my digital photo frame and watch them on there and recently mum in law passed away and we ended up with a stack of her photo albums and I have been putting some of her photos on cards with the scanner so then I can give the albums to my sister in law .

The scan mouse (sold by QVC now and again) will scan up to A3 I believe, as well as items out of books etc.

I even scanned an oil painting with mine.

I'll do some research on that Strato, sounds better value as you can use it for other things, would be handy for guarantees, recipes etc. Thanks.
