Compared with my older HP printer, this unit is so much faster. I’m very satisfied with its performance.

Arrived quickly, easy to set up. Like the idea of separate color cartridges, and they are fairly inexpensive. You can also buy large sized refills per your needs. Like the ink level indicator. Prints fast, Wi-Fi has worked fine so far with no problems. Also like the ability to do 8 1/2 by 14 size. Havent used scanner yet, but expect it too will work well. Overall, really happy with purchase, and it was a decent price and shipped quickly as well.

The instructions for the printer are very good and it was so easy to set up it up. This printer is quick, quiet and has a great quality in the print itself. I am very happy with this printer and will purchase another one if the need arises.

Sheet feeder works well for envelopes and labels. Old Brother inkjet printer did not.

In the reviews I read before buying a Brother printer, a consistent comment was about how much ink they used. I finally bought one in part because of Consumer Reports review, price, and how bad could the printer ink usage really be. As I’ve learned, it does use ink quite notably faster than my prior (non-Brother) printer, and the ink is rather expensive. I haven’t found anything cheaper. Honestly, it’s conceivable getting a new printer more conserving on ink costs might in the long run pay for itself. The quality of the printing is fine, but the printer is a bit noisy and the paper tray less convenient to use than my prior printer. Sorry, but I’m sure you will never publish this review, but I need to be honest.

Easy to setup, can be WI-FI, network, and USB. Duplexes when printing. Scanning and faxing quick and easy. Great value and ink replacement reasonable. Consumer Reports recommended hence why I bought.

I have had this installed for a little more than 30 days and use it daily. A fairly light load of maybe 30-40 pages daily. Print quality is excellent including photos 4×6. Speed is also excellent as it starts printing quickly and finishes quickly as well. It will take a while to see how reliable it is, but we are off to a good start,

The Brother printer is much faster and more responsive to Apple Air Print then my older printer and less costly to operate. It works well with my PC as well as a wireless printer.

This is my first “Brother” printer. It was time for this old Hp customer to try something new, I did, and I am glad I did.

Our previous printer was from this family of printers. This printer is not the same quality. Won’t buy another Brother.

Easy to set up. The features fit all my needs for home office printer. Great product.
Norene Hammes (verified owner) –
Lot’s of neat features, haven’t used them all. Setting up a scan seems overly complicated. Finding the settings is not intuitive at least to me.

I ordered the Brother MFC-J895DW Printer online after doing a lot of research on my next printer. I was replacing an HP Photo printer, which I loved, but I didn’t love the small fortune I was spending for HP Ink cartridges. I decided on the Brother MFC-J895DW Printer, because of the features, price, and price of replacement ink cartridges. So far, it’s been working great. I haven’t printed any photos on it yet, so I can’t comment on how well it does there, but for everything else (word documents, spreadsheets, from the internet) it’s been doing an excellent job.

The product works as advertised. The problem is the screen on the unit is too small and not bright enough in daylight. If you set the unit on a desk you have to crouch down until you get your eyes even with the unit to see the screen properly. This is probably not an issue with younger folks that have good eyes and small fingers.

The Brothers printer is working fine, my only concern is the set up was slightly complicated for a person like me with limited technological knowledge. I had my room mate help me out with the set up and now i’m working from home due to COVID19 at printing a lot of documents on it. I plan on up-grading when I move into my new home which will have more space.
