Advantages: Cheap, cheerful, easy to use.

Disadvantages: Not best quality

Well, this the thinnest scanner I have ever seen. I bought 2 of these over the christmas period as presents (thank you buy.com and your coupons) and both recipients have been very happy with them.
It is easy to set up and use - the software is aceptable for the money you spend on the scanner, but investing in better software (eg paint shopp pro, omnipage etc) could bring better results in terms of ease of use and facilities available for image manipulation.
The image quality is not the best, but then that should not be expected from a forty pound product - if it is needed for business or professional use, get something else, but for the everyday family and their modest needs, it is perfect as an introduction into scanning.
Overall, I was very happy with the build quality and ease of use - even a novice PC user had this installed and scanning within 15 minutes !
