This model runs too hot

The day after we got this laptop, we noticed that it was almost always hot to the touch, and its fan was blowing hard. It turns out that on Apple’s support forums, this model is known for this behavior. Having owned only Apple computers since 1989, I was shocked, because no other computer I’ve owned has run so hot for so much of the day and night.

Laptop works well, no issues. 4 stars only because when it was shipped it was not inside the bubble pouch that was in the box, just set on top of it, leaving the laptop against the top of the shipping box with no padding. Hopefully no hidden damage was done.

Was ready for pick up earlier than expected and I absolutely love it. It looks completely new, fresh out of the box. It’s running smoothly and I am so happy with my purchase.

My son his so happy with his refurbished MacBook. We purchased this last year for our college student. We were pleased with the quality of the laptop considering that it was refurbished.

Really nice quality. The first one they sent us was the wrong size as far as the hard drive, but they were quick to replace it with the correct one, and it arrived in great shape and works really well. Looks basically brand new and functions well.

I haqve just begun working on the MacAir, but it is fine condition and functions are working. THis is a good deal and should be a reliable pice of equipment.

I was so surprised to see that this refurbished item turned on and worked like normal upon arrival- and then less surprised when, after updating, it turned off and refused to turn back on despite all home-remedy efforts. I took it right back to Best Buy and the employees were able to resolve my problem in no time at all.

Does the job, but slow and clunky

The computer arrived relatively timely and works. That being said, it's a bit clunky and slow. I don't do anything particularly special (email, office applications, occasional EMR use for hospital work).
I have an MacBook Air, which I bought new, and is similar age to the refurbed one I bought, and my OG one is superior to the refurbed one I got from best buy. So it works, but it's not stellar.
