Easily set up this machine for use on our company's network. 30 minutes after unboxing and it was joined to our domain with all necessary software.
Only took a few extra minutes to remove the pre-installed software we don't want on a business machine.

I'm a writer and I spend long hours on this computer. I do a great deal of desktop publishing which requires working with different programs, different websites, designing, and printing all at the same time. This computer is just what I dreamed of having. I don't have time to wait. When I need something, I need it now. This computer keeps up with me. It almost feels intuitive. I've never had to wait on this computer to get something done. It hasn't failed me yet in terms of speed, access, or storage. It is lightening fast, trigger happy with the keyboard, with crisp video presentations. It has a small footprint which means I can squeeze it into small places and have more room for my desktop. I am very happy with this purchase. And service at Best Buy is the best buy you can find. I would rate this product better than excellent.

When I first purchased this computer with Windows 10 out of necessity since Windows 7 was on its way out, I found out to my dismay that DSL internet was not fast enough for this computer to function. I was then forced to get higher speed internet, which I understand that all new computers with Windows 10 now need. It became an expensive endeavor. Luckily, the computer was compatible with my 2013 Dell Widescreen monitor, mouse, and keyboard. The wireless mouse and keyboard included with this computer were cheap versions. The wireless keyboard was difficult to use since it was smaller and wouldn't stay in place.
I am still getting use to the Windows 10. I find Windows 10 doesn't has has much as Windows 7 did. Either that or I can't find where these desired actions are located on the Windows 10. Personally, I am a big fan of Windows 7.

EXCEPTIONALLY GREAT COMPUTER

A great computer in the right price range. I needed a faster computer to work on my graphics hobby in Photoshop & Lightroom. I was becoming increasing frustrated with the non-speed in rendering on my existing 3 year old computer. Actually I wanted an additional tower only for graphic intensive programs. I still have my old one and use a switch box to toggle between the two. I felt that the specs on this would give me the power I wanted at a reasonable price. I am not a gamer so didn't need anything with more than 16G ram and I definitely wanted a DVD drive which gaming computers do not have. This is the answer to me dreams and I have the best of both worlds with both computers. I highly recommend, very fast, efficient and worth the price. I am in my 80's and I have no time to waste waiting for a graphic to render.

Good, rarely lags. 16 gigs makes this baby run smoothly and the SSD helps alot. I would recommend to anyone that wants good computer that won't lag. Can run HD youtube videos no problem and could probably run 4k.

I've been using HP's for a while, and they've been good . . . merely good. This is the best HP I've had, however. Reliable, it has not let me down.
I wish it had a 1 TB drive, however. I had to buy one and get it installed, and that was a little trickier than it should have been. But getting the drive on my own was cheaper than getting an upgraded HP.

I wanted to buy a work computer that would keep me productive. This computer has a solid state drive, which speeds up your computing. Also, the 16gb of memory is well worth the higher price. It was still a great deal! Highly recommend!

This tower is a 100% improvement in the replacement of my previous tower. Full disclosure: previous HP tower was purchased in 2009. So my experience to date with this one can only be an improvement...faster and more memory.

This was a great buy for me since I am not a power user but I do appreciate good performance. The SSD works so well!
I feel that I am ready for whatever comes after Windows 10 so that I don't have to upgrade my PC again.

Even though I'm only 3 weeks into my relationship with my latest HP desktop, at the risk of jinxing said relationship, I'm gonna say that this tower has been as solid a performing machine as I have had. I've been a staunch HP user for over 20 years, so I've had a number of their machines. Each one, like this one, have performed wonderfully with no maintenance issues or problems of any sort. (fingers crossed)
This particular tower is fast with plenty of RAM and storage. It's quiet and efficient with plenty of USB ports. The only clunker in my opinion is the weak DVD tray opening system.
I've been impressed so far and am hopeful that this machine will be as reliable as my past HP's.

I bought this tower as a Christmas gift for my husband as a replacement for his older unit. He installed it himself. He is not especially tech savvy. In the past we have used the Geek Squad to optimize a new computer but he opted to do it himself this time. It took several hours to remove unwanted programs and transfer his files but it was easy enough. The time for the unit to boot up is very fast. Like others he wished the power button were a bit chunkier but has gotten used to it. Overall, he is very pleased with it.
