How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsIt works in a HL-3170CDW
Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2019
This works fine: the first page was very good but had a few flecks probably left over from having the printer open and working on it. The second page was perfect. There was a hot plastic smell when it first warmed up as expected, but it quickly went away.
I have done lots of laser printer repair and as far as printer repairs go, this is a quick repair of medium complexity. You need to be careful especially when handling the fuser heater, when installing this roller under the fingers, and when detaching / re-attaching the gear. If you don't have any laser printer repair experience, this is probably not the first one you want to do.

1.0 out of 5 starsDid not work for me
Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2020
I bought this one after watching Terry Jones's videos, he specifically mentioned the cheap replicas so i tried to avoid those and got this one who has good review, sadly i tried two but both had the same overheating issue after printing each page. I don't know if what i got was bad apples, but since i had two and both failed i assume it doesn't have the proper coating on the inside.
The seller however was gracious enough to send me a lower fuser roller after the first upper roller melted it, thank you for that. Sorry it didn't work out.
I attached a video of the issue i am witnessing while printing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just right so far
Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2020
Verified Purchase
Despite being a knock-off, this fuser roller works very well in my Brother HL-3170CDW. There was no smell when I used it for the first time and none thereafter, either. The print quality is just as good as with the original one.

I cannot have an opinion yet on its longevity. But the original branded one lasted for only about 6,000 pages, less than half as long as advertised. I would expect this roller to last as long while costing substantially less.

Do think hard about whether you want to dare the installation. It's fine if you are mechanically and potentially electronically inclined and takes about an hour and a half. But the mechanism is very complex and fiddly, especially un- and re-plugging the wires and threading the roller over the heating element.

As I reconnected the fuser unit, I inadvertently broke the sensor board when I plugged the thermistor connector back into its socket. This socket was insufficiently seated and pushed through the traces on its circuit board. Indicated by a cryptic error message when powering up (which was near-impossible to decipher on the web), it required uninstalling the board, repairing it, and reinstalling it. Because this is quite unintuitive and even more fiddly, it took me another two hours to complete the repair after spending much time finding the fault and figuring out how to do the repair.

The installation aside, I would recommend this roller without reservation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not for the casual hobbyist - Broken spring catchs
Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2021
Verified Purchase
I was part of a design group that designed printers so I wasn't the least bit intimidated by this fix. However, there was problem during the install. There are two springs that hold the red roller against the fuser and after the new fuser roller is installed on the casing, the springs need to be reattached. One end attaches to the metal arm that hold the roller and the other end attaches to a plastic catch that's molded in the black housing. Both of those catches broke off when I tried to re-engage the springs. No worries. I ground off any plastic spurs in that opening and drilled a small pilot hole from the inside of the housing near where the catch was broken. Then I screwed a small screw into that space, engage the spring on its end and then continue screwing it in until it reaches the other side of that small opening. If the screw head is large enough to break the plane of the bottom of the housing, grind it down until it's flush. You could put BondIX or epoxy around the screw too if you wanted extra hold but you may want to install another fuse roller sometime later so I didn't. I buttoned this back up and it works fine. On a fix like this, don't give up. There's always something you can do within reason. Just don't mess with the high voltage components or ones that produce a lot of heat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fixed my Brother printer
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2020
Verified Purchase
My Brother HL-3140CDW laser printer had been wrinkling pages and ghosting images on my prints for about a month. Finally found the problem... that my fuser roller was torn and wrinkled (matching the issues on my paper). This was less expensive than buying a new printer.

There are video tutorials out there on how to do the repair, please watch them! The bulb through the center of the roller is delicate and much more expensive to replace, so take care. Took me a few hours to do the full repair (disassembly and reassembly). Smelled of burning (which is normal) for the first few prints.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great so far.

Replaced the fuser roller on an MFC-9340. Arrived 2 days after ordering. The online videos were very helpful and it took about 2 hours. Have only run about 25 copies so far but they're coming out fine without the burning smell reported from others. Unfortunately found out I needed the 4 pinch rollers that were worn and are part of that assembly and those had to be ordered from China or somewhere in another galaxy. If I had known that upfront, I might have ordered from a different company that includes them with the fuser roller but with a much longer ship time. Quite honestly no complaints with Yanzeo at all. The product works perfectly so far. Will update this review if there are any issues later.

1.0 out of 5 stars It didn't work properly
Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2022

While the part fit perfectly, it created shadows and reprinted the exact lines further down the sheet. I put my original torn fuser back in because it still produced better prints than this new one. Also, the shipping took a week longer than listed which means even longer without my printer.

The option to repair the fuser unit by replacing the heat roller is definitely worth a try. After all, the fuser unit costs ten times as much.
However, you should be a skilled hobbyist. There are good instructions on YouTube.
My Brother MFC-9340 CDW works perfectly again with the new roller.
But I hope that I do not have to do that again soon.

1.0 out of 5 stars Overheated immediately
Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2021
Verified Purchase
Arrived on time. Installation was straight forward (thank you YouTube). I purchased this one because most of the reviews said that it did not have the overheating problem. Mine overheated as soon as the machine was turned back on. It melted the lower roller as well. My pages all have wavy dents in them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fixed my rippling issues that I had in my Brother Printer.

The fuser was an exact match for my printer and installation was simple. My prints are back to looking like they should instead of like they were sat on and breathed new life into my beloved color laser printer.
