I like the Fujitsu ScanSnap s1300i. Its tiny footprint means its sheet feeder is not as easy to adjust as larger scanners but it's a tradeoff I'd make again -- it works fine and it spends 99.9% of its life turned off. SANE works.

I scanned an 800 page double-sided tech document in a few hours with it. While working, every few minutes drop another 20ish pages on the feeder. It can take some abuse.

The color is not as nice as the flatbed but for grayscale it's great.

Oop, re-read your question. I don't do many receipts, mostly documents. And I've been mostly using it on a Mac because Linux OCR was terrible last I tried a few years ago. Just couldn't get it to work well.

Looks like I'll have to give it another shot.
