Customers are saying

Customers are enthusiastic about the 21.5" iMac's ease of use, large screen size, and performance. Many appreciate its design and the benefits of the Fusion Drive, although some find the price high and wish for more RAM. A few also noted the lack of a CD drive. Overall, the positive feedback on usability and performance outweighs the concerns about cost and limited upgradability.

    My old one was slowing down and unable to update new software so time to replace. Only wish it had disk still on the side much better than having to purchase separate and have another item cluttering up my desk.

    Unless your paying extra for upgraded RAM as well, it’s still a little slow even with the fusion.

    I decided to purchase a new computer, the store had an open box option and the computer looked like it had not been used. It was a great option and I am happy that the salesperson recommended this as an option.

    This iMac is a blessing for us older users who need the bigger screen instead of the smaller units with "tiny" screens". It will make work easier and faster and really helps with my photography work.

    I've always bought used iMac's, before now. They have always performed well, but I believe I've been ruined now...this new iMac is the best computer I've even owned, without a doubt. I'm buying new iMacs from now on!

    Spilled water ruined my mac air book. I went back to desk top style similar to what I had 10 plus years ago. I like it better for at home use. On the go my IPad and iPhone seem to work well enough.

    I have used the other operating system and got fed up with all the fixes and other junk. Only Apple has it all figured out. Very confident that the software, operating system, is always working properly.

    Bought an iMac and came defective, it had dead pixels. Returned it and got it exchanged for another one (same model) . So far so good still getting used to apple but seems more reliable and responsive.

    Owned a lot of PC’s over the years, but as a certified HP, Dell and Lenovo technician, I only buy Mac’s. It’s nice to own one computer that runs Windows, Mac and *Nix software without hacking this ‘n that!

    Very pleased with this updated iMac. We had our previous iMac for around 11 years and finally had to upgrade. A great PC, very pleased with speed of fusion drive; however, would prefer solid state.
