We bought this PC to replace a aging PC we had for a few years and have found it has plenty of speed and storage room. It is compact in size and is a great value for the money. We talked about buying a second one of these as well for back up and the kids to play with!

Efficiently configured, small footprint, and very quiet,computer that sits nicely on top of the desk. The I5 CPU is excellent and performance on the web is all that you would desire.. I had a premonition that the relatively low-end independent graphics card may not be fast enough to handle all of the embellished web graphic and video code of the day. Fortunately, that has not been the case. The I5 and GPU perform extremely well with no need to look at an upgrade card.

Bought this computer at Thanksgiving but it was a Christmas gift for my wife and didn't install until yesterday. Set up was simple and fast. We did get that flashing screen on the first try but unplugged it and started over. Went flawless the second time. For what my wife will be using it for it will be perfect. She loves the speed. For the price I got it for I'd buy another. The four stars in because I don't typically give 5 for anything.

It was east to set up and I was using it in a short time. It found my printer
without a problem. All my programs worked including one that I haven't been able to use in 3 years. Plenty of speed and memory. Would buy again

Minimal upgrade potential, but the i5 processor, 8 GB of RAM and 1TB hard drive are ample for almost any ordinary task. The small size and quiet operation make it very unobtrusive. Good deal at $330.

No W7, no expansion but fine for W10

I actually purchased this for a friend to replace an old system. Really great Black Friday deal.
The Good.... fairly fast out of the box with minimal bloatware. Light and compact especially great for older buyers. Replaced the HD with a Samsung SSD and MAN>>>>.. boots up in about 10 secs! Tailored W10 to as close to W7 as possible including Aero themes and it became very viable for an easy migration.
The BAD (as I see it)... There is literally NO expansion capability as MB limited to 2 SATA ports and no room for added drive. Lenovo does not list any drivers to support W7 so did not risk trying to back W10 out. W10 Windows Update has a mind of it's own so you literally cannot control updates as easily as you can in W7.
Bottom line,... know well your purpose when you buy but it seemingly is a very good unit, especially if you are satisfied with a largely "as is" unit.

Lenovo - 300s-08IHH Desktop - Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - 1TB Hard Drive - Black Has a relatively fast processor, and more RAM than many laptops, a large hard drive....everything just fit my needs for a basic, no-frills computer.

The PC works fine, and had suprisingly little bloatware.
The PC has no DVI output, and I don't recognize the RAM brand. In addition the power source is far to small to handle any graphics card that would appropriately utilize the I5 processor. It was a good deal on black friday, but I would have been angry about the tiny power souce if I had paid everyday pricing. Do not buy this thinking you could throw more RAM and a GTX 970 in it and have a budget gaming PC. The power source can't handle it.

The price on this computer was so good when I walked into the store looking for it the associate said the i5's start over $100 higher than was advertised in their sale. I attempted to correct him but didn't have time to deal with him so I let it go then went and bought a laser printer and a washing machine. After I got home I promptly ordered it online to pick up in store and was able to get the computer for $100 less than the associate quoted.
The computer wouldn't fair well with the latest games but for a work computer it was perfect. My favorite part about this computer was the lack of bloatware. Lenovo puts a few things on there that's easy to take off (Mcafee less so) but its far better than the nonsense that comes on a HP.
