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.

    This is my 2nd iMac. I loved the first one and now that it's aging I wanted another one. They tend to be pretty trouble free and simple to use. I use it for all the usual things one does on a computer, plus photo editing, word processing, etc... I love the wireless mouse & keyboard and the very thin monitor. Just a really nice machine.

    As I age I fined I need a larger screen and this iMac 21" was perfect. It makes it easier to read the screen and gives me more room on my desk. The color and speed is excellent and I would highly recommend it. It has enough connectors in the back to meet my needs. I will miss my built in CD drive, but I now have an external one.

    Gotta Love Macs

    For over 20 years now, I've been a Mac fan. I must admit, when money was tight, I tried a PC, but in the long run, you get what you pay for and Mac's last many more years than a PC. This new iMac does not disappoint at all. When it was time to upgrade my 8 year old Mac Mini, I started looking at iMacs. I didn't need a power-horse computer as I only do basic surfing, and some photo and video editing. Regardless, it seems this computer could handle anything. I notice a huge performance upgrade from my Mac Mini. This iMac is so responsive and smooth. This model doesn't have the retina 4k display, but the images on the screen look awesome to me. I've seen the 4k display models in the store and I honestly don't think it really makes that huge of a difference. Note that I'm not watching any movies on this computer... I've got my OLED TV for that. Overall, I think this iMac is an awesome computer at a fairly reasonable price. Again, you get what you pay for and I'm sure I'll have this Mac for 8 years as well.

    Upgrading from a 2009 27" iMac. This is so fast it is a delight. Startup is fast. the wireless mouse and keyboard are great, no more batteries. Just charge them using the enclosed lightning cable and the charge lasts a long time. The fusion drive is so quiet. Looking forward to using this a lot.

    I love everything about using the iMac. I wasn't sure about transitioning from the Apple Air laptop that I had to a full sized desktop but I am super, super glad I did! Anyone that is thinking about getting a Mac from either a Windows PC or just to upgrade, the iMac is well worth the investment!

    I love the large but not too large screen. That is what sold me on this iMac. I was replacing a 17" laptop that was too big to travel with so it just made sense to stay in the Apple line (iPhone $ iPad already) First iMac and find it easy to use although a bit different from my previous HPs.

    Back in the day the original iMac was a stunning concept. Take an attractive monitor and put all the computer works inside it. And a very good entry level computer it was! This newest iMac is no different. Gorgeous grapfics, fast processor and dependable Apple IOS. All still in an attractive package.

    This is my very first MAC computer. I must say it is a must have. Super fast, sleek and very easy to use. I waited so long because I thought MACs were intimidating, but honestly I don't know how I survived without one this long.

    I bought this computer to produce music with. I needed something compact but powerful and pleasing to look at. The display is magnificent, it is fast, it was easy to set up, it has ample Display space with a small footprint. My music production software runs great on it. Exactly what I wanted.

    First Apple desktop having been a Windows user for years. Easy to learn and very intuitive. Love the display and small footprint. Not a fan of how pictures are imported and subsequently shared across rest of my Apple devices as they are now a jumbled mess.

    I like my Apple iMac. The screen is so vivid and it is nice to be able to browse the internet at faster speeds than I used to. I also like being able to put two web pages side by side. I am able to organize my photos and put them on my phone faster than I could with my old Mac.
