The Brother PTD400AD is an attractive and affordable label maker that's easy to use. It takes some getting use to, but the PTD400AD is capable and versatile. It has a QWERTY keyboard, and while it's fairly easy to use the QWERTY keyboard (it has keys that are much larger than those on most label makers), it's slightly awkward. The PT400AD's QWERTY keyboard also has a learning curve, and if you're used to typing on a touchscreen, you may have some trouble adjusting to the QWERTY keyboard. While the PT400AD's keyboard is small, keys are spaced well, and it's fairly easy to use once you get the hang of it.

The PT400AD has a clear, large LCD display, and it's fairly easy to navigate.

The PTM95 is a handy label maker that's easy to use, but it doesn't have as many label-making options as our other top picks. (The Brother P-Touch PT-2550, which is our top pick, has more label-making options.) The PT-2550 has a QWERTY keyboard for typing labels, and the PTM95 has a flat keyboard with 9 type styles (and 8 DECO mode patterns). The PTM95's 12-character display is easier to read than the PT-2550's 24-character display, and it's less bulky, too. The PTM95 has a trigger button that you press to start and stop printing labels, but the PT-2550 has a button that you press to print a single label. The PTM95's label-making features are pretty basic: you can't print logos, images, or graphics, and you can't print on more than one label at a time. But it's a good, basic label maker, and it's probably a better option for someone looking for a basic label maker for around the house or for labeling small items.

The Marklife P11 is a no-frills label maker that does what you need it to do. It prints labels fast, using thermal printing technology, and it's simple to operate. Some label makers include templates that make it easy to design labels, but you don't need to worry about finding templates for the Marklife P11. Also, its thermal printer is quieter than comparable inkjet or laser models. The P11 is small enough to take anywhere, and it's powered by two AA batteries. The printer's cord isn't long enough to reach most desks, so you'll need to plug it into the included USB cord. The P11 doesn't offer Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity, so you can't print labels from a mobile device, and there's no online template library, so you can't download new templates. That said, the P11's low price makes it a good choice for anyone who wants to label something at home or in a home office, and for anyone who wants to replace price guns in a grocery store.
