I've reevaluated.

Still not worth it. My Brother is hitting 10 years now, and I'm trying to think of many scenarios where I really needed to print colour at home.

I have all Brother printers too, they seem to be the only brand that's not actively trying to screw their customers. My B&W laser at home is on its second drum and still soldiering on, we got an A4 colour laser multifunction for work which does double sided document scanning and printing and it was... I think $380 or something, five years ago. Would buy again. I don't really need colour but it's nice.
I don't think this was a mono vs color argument but rather ink color vs laser color.
If you go with a laser color printer you will have to buy four toners instead of one.
Gggp post said they were just sticking with b+w laser, and gp post suggested a colour laser.
