Is the MFC-J870DW good for a home office?

Yes. It is a color inkjet with a maximum resolution of 1,200 x 6,000 dpi, so photos and color documents are within its range.

Can it scan and copy without a computer?

Yes. The 20-page ADF and the color touchscreen let you copy and fax directly from the printer.

No. It is sold without a manufacturer warranty, so any coverage depends on the seller.

The printer, a power cord and starter ink cartridges are typical. Check the listing for the exact contents before buying.

Our take on the Brother MFC-J870DW All-in-One Color Inkjet Printer

The Brother MFC-J870DW is a compact color inkjet all-in-one that prints, scans, copies and faxes. Its 2.7-inch color touchscreen and 20-page automatic document feeder make standalone copying and faxing easy, and it connects over Wi-Fi with WPA2 security. It suits a home office or small household that needs occasional color printing plus scanning and faxing in a small footprint. Against rivals, it is smaller and lighter than many office all-in-ones, but its 100-sheet tray and 128 MB of memory are modest, and it is an older model sold without a manufacturer warranty.
