    Doing exactly what I ordered it for! Keeping me gaming while I'm trying to slowly assemble a PC. Works great, plays Bloodborne like a dream, it'll absolutely be staying with me until I upgrade to a PS5. If I ever need to. The sale I got it during also meant the price was just right.

    It works, but it arrived dirty and sticky all over it. This item was for a birthday gift. And it looked like I pulled it out of the dumpster. I could have probably found a nicer console at a pawn shop.

    This item was simply mind blowing on how they could ship it in a box without any protection. We got it right n time for my daughter Christmas last year. It was busted up but it did work fine. Didn’t have the time to go to Best Buy and fight with them. Because she was going back to Texas. So I ate the money I spent and won’t be ordering anything refurbished again.

    Bad ps4

    I don’t like leaving bad reviews. Especially since I like Best Buy a lot and they took it back with no issues at all as well as refunded my money fast. The product deserves a 1 start but Best Buy gets a 5 star so I put it in the middle. Product - First when the product was sent to me it had the wrong cables for power and it didn’t have a data cable just a charging cable. That cause major issues at first. Best Buy offered to swap them out in store. Didn’t get around to it cause I had spares. For the console itself it had its own issues where it would brick itself a lot which would take forever to get the system running again. After doing updates it got better but still would happen after not playing for days. After that I just returned the system too many issues

    Fairly priced and works well so far. We opted to buy the refurbished from Best Buy vs other retailers hoping with the understanding that they will stand behind their products.

    So far the playstation runs well. It is operating as intended. I woukd suggest at least wiping the console and controller off. I completely understand these are refurbished or used.. but a lysol wipe before sticking it in the box would be nice.
