Great product, great value Date: September 23, 2009
Pros: Compact Design, durable, easy to use

The LiDE25 is a simple, easy to use, and quick to use scanner. Setup is fast. Scanning is fast, with plenty of options (dpi, color/bw, straight to PDF, multi page PDF if you use Canon's drivers). It doesn't take a lot of space on the desk, and when I'm done just set it aside, leaning up against a desk leg or shelved right with the rest of my books. Since I move it a lot, I have subjected it to a bit of use - it functions like new. The device has not disappointed me in 2 years of use...it is my best buy of 2007. The designers and engineers really got this design right. And for the price, it is an outstanding value.

worked well before snow leopard installed Date: September 10, 2009
Pros: Compact Design, durable

I've had the LIDE 25 for over a year. It worked flawlessly with my Macbook until I installed snow leopard (Mac 10.6) after which Toolbox wouldn't work. I downloaded the driver update for 10.6 but Toolbox still doesn't work. This may be peculiar to my computer but is something to be aware of.
I would unequivocally recommend the LIDE 25 if it will work with your operating system.

scanner Date: June 17, 2009
Pros: Compact Design, durable, easy to use, Fast Connectivity, High resolution
Cons: Slow-speed scanning

Great scanner - USB powered flatbed - no cords or transformers to tote - no problems with any density of paper (or larger, ex. box bottom) to be scanned. Lightweight. Sturdy construction.

Great Scanner Date: March 1, 2009
Pros: Compact Design, durable, easy to use, High resolution, small size!

I upgraded to Vista 64 bit and needed to replace my U1220 scanner.
This is the third Canon LIDE scanner I have owned. This is the BEST little scanner ever!
Canon is #1
