Worst Purchase Ever

The worst purchase I’ve ever made.
First time when I got it, the keyboard was not responding at all. Not joking about this, you can check online about this (Reddit too) and I returned and ordered the same laptop again.
After waiting a couple of days, I hoped everything would be okay with it but to my surprise the touchpad stopped working and I tried every possible troubleshooting step for this and I’m on way to return it back.

Ugh. I really wanted to love this thing. This was my first Alienware laptop. Really nice specs on paper. The keyboard stopped working (it's a well-known problem). Even after the fix, it still would shut off. It's a shame. It really is a nice machine. Build quality is okay. G-Sync monitor and the display itself are really good. I really this to be my MSI GS75-9sf-243 replacement.
