They are SLOW!!! If you take your time, they will work OK, but if you get in a hurry, the system's response times are pathetic!! Things like "please re-scan your last item" and when you do, it will double charge you for it. If you move things from the unpaid scale to the paid scale too fast, even while scanning en route, it tells you to wait for assistance. Overall, I don't like them in general. There are times when they are more convenient than standing in line behind a few full shopping carts.
One of my pet peeves is when I go into a place like a Wal-Mart, and I see 40 cashier booths with only two or three staffed. Why have them all unless you are going to use them - at least some of the time. But you can be sure that no matter when you go to the cashier to check out, you WILL wait in line.
At one point, I had picked up some things at a Home Depot store, and there was an employee trying to direct people to the self checkouts. I politely refused. Much of their merchandise is not easily scanned. Loose nuts and bolts in a bag from the hardware department are one example. Long pieces like lumber are another.
Overall, I don't like self checkouts. Hopefully, when they figure out how EASY it would make it for shoplifters, the fad will fade away.

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
