For me, there were several dollar store trinkets that already broke, and one toy for my kids that was a huge sparkly styrofoam mess waiting to happen, so I threw it out rather than curse anyone else with it.

Linux user here, can confirm a Brother multifunction laser printer/scanner monster from around five years ago works flawlessly and painlessly out of the box with multiple Debian derivatives.

Also the first toner I bought with it is still sealed in its box because the free starter toner which came with the printer still hasn't run down. I'm never going back to inkjets!

My 2 year old brother (all in one, not a human) same story. Works great with Linux. Better than my hp, even.
