> 3 dayIve been trying to go paperless at home, but there never seems to be an end to contracts, bills, invoices, etc. that still come in paper form (and I need to keep a copy of) despite all my efforts to choose electronic delivery. I had a portable scanner before but it only fed one sheet at a time and sometimes would go in crooked so I had to redo the same page over and over again. Taking pictures with my phone was just as tedious for multipage documents and trying to stitch them together. The Doxie Pro arrived with a stack of papers I needed to scan (and have been dreading). The unit was incredibly easy to set up. Not many steps and the one page of instructions were super simple. I installed the software on an M1 Mac Mini and it recognized the device without a hitch. (Nice touch that the scanner arrived with cables for both a USB A and USB C connection to the computer.) The scanner is pretty quick (especially compared to a portable scanner) and scans both sides automatically. It also took a small stack of papers (5-10 pages at a time -- I didnt have any longer documents) easily, even when those documents had a pretty significant fold in them from the mail. The scans were clear and didnt need to be adjusted or cropped. This is my second Doxie so I knew I liked the software and it continued to perform well. Many devices just dont have great Mac support and though theres nothing fancy about the Doxie software, it did reliably work and was straightforward to understand. Set up took a total of 3 minutes and going through a stack of papers, naming them, and organizing them in my online storage took another 15 minutes. I was actually looking for more papers to scan when I was done because I couldnt believe it went by so quickly. And when I was done, really easy to unplug everything and reclaim the space next to my computer. Im almost waiting for another stack of papers to pile up to scan again. :/

Greater than one weekI was looking for something to scan photos, and although this is not exclusively a photo scanner it got such good reviews I thought Id try it out. It is very easy to operate, the software is great, and customer service is excellent. For photo scanning, you can set up a custom scan profile that scans only the front of the picture (the default is to scan both sides). If you encounter any issues with the device or software, simply restarting the device seems to resolve it. For example: one time the pictures were being pulled in only part-way, but I restarted it and it completely resolved. Ive probably scanned upwards of 1,000 pictures at this point, and Im still extremely happy with the scanner. Regarding their customer service: Doxie set up a call with me to answer any questions and to get feedback on my experience. When I mentioned I was also using it to scan old newspaper clippings, they mailed me some photo sleeves (plus a gift card to thank me for my time and feedback -- Im mentioning this for full disclosure, but it didnt impact this review).

> 3 daySolid little document scanner! Especially appreciate the auto duplex scanning and 20 sheet capacity. My biggest hurdle to staying paperless has simply been keeping up with the constant stream of incoming paper from businesses that still insist on using paper/mail in 2022. The scanning speed was a bit faster than I expected. Software is easy to use. My only negative is that it isnt wireless so it has to live with/next to a computer. At any rate I love this thing and its a fraction of the cost of the big guys scanners.

> 3 dayThis is a superb scanner -- small footprint but large capacity. Scans both sides of pages and many pages at once with a separate area to scan different size/weight paper/photos. Very quick, smart, and intuitive useful software. Highly recommended.
