I have 2 of these. This one is for my mom but I also own a non-refurb. So far this refurb has been fine without issue. Hardware: This is pretty light, has hdmi, lacks vga but who cares nowadays. Not meant for gaming/video/animation but this thing can be used for basic high end audio or a multimedia machine. Its not meant for huge photoshop crunching but can do most things without feeling slow. Only real issue is handprints show easily on the nice exterior. Software/OS: It comes with windows 8 which many don't like but I am an IT specialist. So I'm able to turn off all the windows 8 annoyances and it seems to function much better than even win7 after that. For the price (below $250) this is a pretty awesome machine.

We bought this laptop for our 15 yr old son to do his school work. It has all the necessary memory, speed, visual, audio and other functions for him at his school work. Since he has a gaming system we did not need a laptop for him to download a bunch of games on. This computer is able to surf the internet at a fast speed and does everything we expected it to/

Auto updates take a long time. Nice keyboard that is easy to use and the number keypad is fantastic. Good quality screen, not to easy to open but that may loosen up with use. I would purchase again.

I bought this refurbished laptop online from best buy for my 7 year old daughter for Christmas. she opened it and was super excited. it came with a GEEK SQUAD certification that everything is in proper working order. we turn it on to set it up and it is not working properly. the cd rom will not open, it will not mute, cannot use headphones... many other issues. so I looked about a return. it stated that I could mail it back in, but I would only get a refund and NOT another laptop. it stated if I took it back into the store, I could exchange for same product. So... I traveled three hours to the closest bestbuy, and that told me we no longer sale this... i bought this item less than one month ago.. they stated they can fix it but could take up to four weeks.. cannot exchange for same one.. can buy another one and put extra money towards it.. I ended up getting a refund... out gas money.. waste of time.. daughter is sad, with no laptop... horrid experience... will NEVER BUY FROM AGAIN!!!! Geek SQAD certified!!! YEAH RIGHT!!!

I loved the dell laptop when I took it out of the package. Then two months later the battery was stone dead. And customer support suggested that I take the laptop back to Geek Squad to have it checked for a minimum charge of $50!!!
