Just what I needed, I'm a huge fan of open box, never had an issue

This is the first desktop I have ever had. I've had many laptops, but never a desktop, so I was nervous that I would buy something that wasn't right for me. I have always been a fan of HP and their products and this Pavillion only confirms why. It was so easy to set up and works like a dream. It is a great size for my small home office space and virtually soundless. When I power it up I am working and checking emails less than two minutes later. I highly recommend this computer to everyone, especially to first-time buyers. The whole experience of purchasing an entire desktop computer setup was made so easy at Best Buy. I was helped by an associate named Tim who completely listened to what I needed and wanted in a computer and nailed it. He even respected my budget and kept within it without hassling with continued upselling as I expected. I truly had such a great experience there that I will only go there for my electronics from now on. Thanks to everyone who helped me, and thanks to HP for never disappointing me.

We bought this to replace an old lower end Dell PC. It is for an office setting with its main use being Outlook, Web Browsing and our in house invoicing software. It is way quicker than the PC it replaced thanks to the newer hardware and SSD. Very fast setup and quickly starts up every time. It isn't meant for demanding programs like Photoshop or gaming... But when using it for what it was intended for it is great!
