Customers recognize the refurbished EliteDesk Desktop as a great value for its price. However, a significant drawback reported by customers is the lack of a DVD drive, requiring them to purchase one separately. Some users also experienced issues with the hard drive. Overall, opinions are mixed, highlighting the need to consider both the cost-effectiveness and potential hardware limitations.

So far so good. Wemt seamless. Just had to move the wire 4 the mouse and figure out the sound system from my old computer to hook up. Best desk top ever 4 me. Did order a wrong adapter cable 4 it. But second 1 was good. Still a lot cheaper eating a cable from ebay then getting a tech out. Restored by Microsoft so you will need an account or have to create 1. Had issues back some a bit with best buy but last 3 or 4 years good. Just follow the emails and respond as needed and maybe you will only be at the store 4 about 5 minutes like me. Take your time. Haste makes waste but it can prevent errors and problems. A lot easier then getting comcast in, but all done now. From what I can see so far - why would anybody not go the refurbished route.

I can't BELIEVE what I found when I unboxed my computer tower. I could hear pieces rattling around inside the machine. I should have boxed it back up and refused to accept it but curiosity got the better of me. I opened the computer shell and the fan shroud fell out in two pieces and the hard drive fell into my lap. I had planned on upgrading with some parts I have on hand anyway so I reassembled the machine and it actually does work. Is this the kind of careless workmanship you get when you order special made equipment on line? This is no way to sell a product.

It is a refurbished one but very updated. Only thing I did not care for was that the desk top was an older model so my new monitor could not be hooked up to the desk top. I needed to purchase an older cable to connect the new model I purchased for this desk top. You can not use the USB cable that was provided. Other than that, it is a good fit to my needs.
