Summary: Brother, is this worth it?
Review: I decided not to buy the replacement drum, because the first drum only lasted for a few thousand pages, about a year. It is almost as cheap to buy a new laser printer, but it won't be a Brother. The drums wear out too fast. I have bought three brothers and each one was worse than the last. I am going to give Samsung a try.

Summary: It's a Lie
Review: I've owned this product for a couple of years now. It is the drum for my Brother HL-1040. Brother has a nice setup where you purchase the toner cartridges separate from the drum. According to Brother, the drum prints 20,000 sheets before it needs replacing. So, you get 20,000 sheets and then you can either spend the $160 on a new drum, or just buy a new printer. Let me say that if you get 5,000 printed sheets from this drum you are doing better than most people. Brother lies to their customers when they claim this drum produces 20,000 printed sheets....it just doesn't happen. And at those prices for a replacement? These are deceptive claims that try to justify the price on a new drum. This product should be avoided if possible.
