To start, what exactly are refurbished laptops? At Best Buy, a refurbished item has been inspected, repaired and restored to like-new, clean, working condition and includes all parts and accessories. These are generally electronics that have been returned for some reason. They may be unused products with open boxes, barely used returned products, blogger review models, demo or floor units, or items slightly damaged in shipping. Because they've been through a careful inspection process to insure they're working as good as new, the best refurbished laptop is actually less likely to have defects or issues than one that comes from the factory.
Why would you consider getting a refurbished laptop? Probably the biggest reason is that, whether you select a refurbished MacBook or any of the other refurbished Apple laptops, one of the refurbished laptops from Dell, or one of the refurbished HP laptops, you'll be able to get more computer for your money. Additionally, most refurbished items are covered by the Best Buy Return & Exchange Promise and come with a minimum 90-day warranty. Plus, you always have the option of extending and enhancing coverage for up to three years with computer protection, which includes repair for accidental damage and normal wear and tear, one-time battery replacement, hard drive failure, power surge repair and repair of bad pixels and screen burn-in.
