PC Mag Business Choice Award 2018 for Printers

Brother's line of printers and multi-function centres have won the PC Mag Business Choice Award 2018 for the 6th year in a row.

The PCMag Readers’ Choice Awards are based on overall customer satisfaction and printer attributes including setup, reliability, printing quality, technical support, repairs and the cost of consumables. “According to our survey respondents, no one else can deliver the same level of overall satisfaction, reliability, and ease of setup,” said Dan Costa, Editor-in-Chief of PCMag. “Respondents tell us Brother printers continue to deliver excellent printed output and no one can beat them when it comes to satisfaction with cost of inks and toners.”

In the Readers’ Choice survey, Brother had the highest satisfaction among printers less than a year old, printers for home, inkjet all-in-one printers, laser printers, and laser all-in-ones.

With an overall score of 8.6 from PC Mag readers, Brother printers and MFC's were way ahead of the competition in this years reader survey. Achieving high scores for set up and reliability (8.8 and 8.9 respectively) and the required low scores for how Tech you need to be to own one and how much support you don't need, Brother scored 8.7 for the likelihood to recommend our products and we think that's fantastic!

But don't take our word for it.
