Customers are impressed with the 21.5" iMac's ease of use, performance, screen size, and value for the price. Many appreciate its sleek design and find it easy to set up. While some users wished for more memory and a more recent model year, the positive feedback on performance and ease of use outweighs these concerns. A few customers expressed dissatisfaction with the included mouse and keyboard.

    I purchased this Apple 21.5" Mac to replace my old one because it was going to be a vintage one by spring of 2022. I was going to purchase the next screen size up, but I couldn't resist the $500 savings. I am extremely pleased with it, and as with all my Apple products, it runs like a charm. I couldn't be happier.

    I am very pleased with my new iMac. I have always used a PC in the past, but this computer is much more user friendly. I love the big screen, and the speed of response is much faster. I was able to transfer my files from my PC, so I have what I had but with a better machine.

    Happy, but a couple of minor things...

    Good to get an up to date replacement for my Mid-2011 Mac of which I have really enjoyed. For a very basic computer user trying to manage the storage on the limited SSD with external hard drive(s) has been a little cumbersome to get going, but all seems well so far. Old fashioned or just old I guess, I prefer to keep my stuff local and not out 'on the cloud' as I really do not have the need to access all my files while away. The main reason I do not give it five stars is because when turned it on after purchasing new in March 2021, I see that it is a 2019 model, kind of disappointing. I get the whole Covid thing, but still I expected a little better than this. Not sure whether it was because of where I purchased it instead of buying directly from Apple or what. And as far as the whole purchasing experience at Best Buy, it was subpar to say the least. Looking online I saw they had a couple at my local Best Buy, went there to purchase and the experience was awful. No one there to help at the Apple display for a loooong time, finally got someone there and they did not know anything and they really needed to leave to go to lunch. I am serious...I left there, went home and ordered it online to pick up at a Best Buy a little further away.

    This is a great desktop size. Visually the computer is awesome. The big disappoint with the model is the very limited memory! SO disappointed.

    My first Apple desktop. The picture is amazing. I am a university student and zoom is great on it. The best part is my young daughter loves it too. The keyboard is easy to use. This is a fast machine with ample storage and awesome picture.

    I was looking to add equipment to my one-person small business but had a limited budget, and needed something where photoshop would work on it. This out of box deal was great and works well. NEED to get an external harddrive as the computer itself doesn't have enough space, but that's not a problem.

    It has been a long time since my wife had an iMac. She recently had been using my old MacBook Pro but wanted something more with a decent size screen but not to big. This was a good deal during Black Friday and we could not pass it up. It fast and fills all my wife wants and need.

    Love it! The screen is perfect size, it is easy to learn how to use when you’ve never used one before. The volume gets loud which is a plus for us. I like the wireless keyboard and mouse, you can use it from a distance. This was an awesome gift for my husband and he loves it!

    Great value and a good size screen. I've been an Apple user, exclusively, in my personal life for the past 8 years. Until now I've always had a MacBook, so the iMac is new to me, and I couldn't be happier with it. Lightening fast, quality built-in speakers, etc., etc., etc.

    Typical Apple quality in a machine. The display is gorgeous. The machine responds quickly using the Big Sur. My only complaint is the inability to add memory.

    So far, so good! :) it’s fast, it required an update but luckily the Mac is new and has the memory to do the update, unlike my old 2018 Macbook Pro which barely has any memory to even house the Microsoft 360 suite.

    This was the easiest computer to set up than I've ever had before. I prefer an ergonomic keyboard so I replaced the one that came with it. It synced easily too. So far, I'm very happy. For good measure, I found the price quite reasonable and much less than I expected.
