    We like Insignia products and this is much quieter than our old one ever was. I works well and delivery service was excellent.

    A middle of the road desktop, serves its purpose. Very easy to set up and establish internet connections and wireless connections. Windows 10 complicates things somewhat, which is attributable to this being an upgrade from Vista.

    Have had a few HP's over the years, I like them. i was disappointed that it did not come with an office, just a note pad. Not much came with this PC, you now have to pay a fortune for programs. I guess they want their money too. The speed is great and it serves our purpose.

    Good basic computer

    Purchased for an elderly friend when her old Dell computer died. Setup was a breeze and it is a reasonably quick computer. I was surprised to find that it is more like a laptop in a tower - there is no internal power supply like one expects in a desktop tower. Power comes from an external power supply like one would find on a laptop. As a result, I was surprised how light to box was when I picked it up in the store - though it was empty! That being said, it seems to do the job. One other concern is that there are only two SATA ports on the motherboard, One goes to the 1Tb hard drive, one goes to the CD/DVD player/recorder. I had hoped to put the old hard drive in as a secondary drive, and then transfer all of the pics, docs, etc to the new hard drive. Only was to do it was to disconnect the cable from the CD/DVD and hook it up to the old hard drive to do the transfer, then put it back when done. Not as convenient as I hoped but it worked. Overall, the computer works well, is reasonably fast, and capable. Great for a starter computer or a cheap replacement for basic needs.

    Large storage. sleep design but excessively large for a new computer and was really slow connecting to the Internet. I had an Emachine that was slow but connected to the Internet faster than the new one. When surfing it would go in and out of connection

    Pretty Good Desktop

    This is a pretty good desktop computer. Bare bones for those not looking for a power hungry setup. Needed a Windows machine for school work and this got the job done. Have since built my own rig for gaming. No way this computer can do anything more than general "office" type work and watching things like YouTube, Netflix, or Hulu. Didn't have enough power to run more memory-intensive statistical software without serious lag.

    I found this one to be a great replacement desktop for my old 2003 desktop which had crashed twice in a month. I use my computers for email, web searches, and to check on friends, family, and world events.
