I bought the TM-Toner Brother Fuser Unit after trying to go cheap by just replacing the pressure/heater rollers for ~$35 as listed on Amazon. The installation of the rollers was difficult, time consuming and when finished, the copier overheated frequently and produced pages that were wrinkled and heavily embossed. These were not exact replacement parts for the Brother MFC9130 and problems ensued.So wiser by $35 I bought the whole TM-Toner Brother Fuser Cartridge which cost about 5 times more. Installation was easy (4 screws and 3 wire plug connections) and the copier started up with no problems. There was no overheating and no wrinkling or embossing of the paper. Admittedly I had experience with disassembly/assembly from trying to install the cheaper roller fix, but installing the whole Toner Unit took less than 1/2 hour from start to finish. The task is well within the capabilities of most people who can handle a screw driver and pliers. I don't know how long it will last, but I am very satisfied at the moment.

When the item was unpacked there was a small portion of the upper right hand plastic frame broken off and in the bag. It didn't look like it would affect the installation or operation so the fuser assembly was installed with the help of a YouTube video. It is working perfectly.

The media could not be loaded. This is the 2nd fuser I've bought (though the first was from a different seller), and I had high hopes for this one after the first (cheaper) unit only printed a few pages before it quit working. This unit didn't work at all. The printer passed its self-diagnostic test after I installed the fuser - but then when I tried to print a test page, as soon as the printer tried to feed paper, I hear a loud, terrible grinding-gear noise.I then removed the fuser and inspected it closer - turns out the roller wouldn't turn at all. (Hence the grinding gears - the printer motor must've been trying to turn the roller but it wouldn't budge.) I dissected the unit (just out of curiosity), and I found one end where the roller is supposed to be able to rotate, but it was "fused"/ locked to the piece within which it seems it should rotate.Thus I'll be returning this unit, but now I'm worried there may be damage to the printer's internal gear train - I don't think I can really know for sure unless I take more of the printer apart, which I'm not interested in doing. Thus now I'm in a bit of a quandary as to whether I should try yet another fuser, or just junk this printer and buy a new one :(

Saved me TONS! Video found on YouTube showed me exactly how to replace this when the manufacturer wanted me to call an authorized repair shop which may have cost me more than a new printer. This solved the problem and wasn’t hard to change at all.

The fuser has been in use a couple months. If it goes bad, like an earlier replacement, I'll update this review.

Even though it was kinda pricey, I figured it was worth a shot. It is pretty easy to install and so far works like a charm. Better decision than $350 for a replacement.

Ordered one of these and it had electrical issues. It was sparkling inside the printer. Received a replacement and it was physically broken. These people don't do quality control. Never again.

Okay
