Great Value for a Refurbished iMac
I purchased this certified refurbished 21.5" iMac and have been very impressed. The computer arrived in excellent condition and looked almost brand new. Setup was simple and it runs smoothly for everyday tasks like browsing, documents, and media. The Retina 4K display is sharp and vibrant, which makes it great for work and watching videos. For the price, this refurbished iMac is a great value and I would definitely recommend it.

When You Can’t Get the Best…
It was time to update my super old Mac and I chose this one. Not being able to spend a thousand dollars+ on a new model, this is a good option. Obviously, it doesn’t have all the perks newer models offer but I feel quite happy with my “new” Mac. I use it for graphics and it works great. My old one doesn’t have a single scratch but this one came with a few scratches (I hated that). I picked it up at the store and it came in a cardboard box with a completely cheap generic mouse and keyboard (-_-) and it came with dedicated bubble wrap “protecting” it. All and all, it was a good purchase. Hopefully, someday I can get the newest one.

Nice computer
This computer is to replace another old iMac that is no longer supported by many online websites. We wanted an older computer to try and get one that would run our old programs. Unfortunately that didn’t work and so most our programs won’t work on this one. Should have gone older I guess. But this one is much faster than our old one but we have to learn a new operating system which is a bummer.
