    I bought this for a friend (Xmas present) so that she can do her online banking, email and youtube videos. She's not a gamer so she didn't need a high-end gaming PC, just something for basic everyday use. Setup was easy, and Windows 10 is simple enough for her to use. As a good basic Desktop PC she is quite happy with the overall performance. Has enough memory to handle her tasks pretty smoothly and the 500gb hard drive is plenty of space for her (she just keeps some pictures and documents on the hard drive and doesn't really save larger files like video files and she doesn't play games anyway on this).

    I purchased this for my daughter who is homeschooled and we love it. It is small, thin , fast. And more than enough space internally for work and storage. It only has 4 GB of memory but for a 7 year old I think it is enough.

    Out of the box, this desktop is capable to run most light office programs. It boots fast and runs fine. I'd strongly recommend clean install win10 with the option "Keep nothing" to delete everything from the HDD. Drivers install perfectly good from Microsoft. It works really good running office (I use LiberOffice), browsing web and running some cloud applications. To boost the power of this desktop, I went ahead and ordered an SSD (128Gb), installed it in (very easy by the way) and re-installed win10 and just everything again on it (I don't believe in disks cloning)... Now it runs really fast like at least 3x faster than regular HDD. I got it as open box special! It cover the need and even more. The graphic is just good, Bluetooth and WiFi work with no issues... Internet access is very fast! It has enough USB connections for every day usage. Small package almost 0 noise tower can be installed on or under the desk... Sound quality is ok! No complain really... It is kind of outdated, I know! but it really fills the need!

    Not a gamer's machine, nor one for heavy graphics work, but that wasn't what it was purchased for. It's a replacement for a straightforward home office machine, and it does the job just fine. It handles two monitors without any problems and doesn't break a sweat over any of the rourine tasks we give it. For the price, pretty satisfied.

    Got this as open box for a great price. Works very good for general computing. I love that is has built in WiFi and connects flawlessly to my network at home. Standard HDD with the 4GB RAM can be sluggish at time, and I think it will perform much better with 8GB RAM and an SSD. Meets my intended purpose as a shared family computer where anyone can jump on and surf, print, or work on a document. Has a DVD and multi card reader to boot. After getting rid of my previous family desktop 2 years ago, I am very glad I made the purchastop, as now there is always a computer in the house that is always on, without having to worry about charging the battery or digging for a charging cable.

    A Bit Disappointed

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've had this computer for about a month now. I've always had HP computers, but after several years, mine decided to die, so it was time to buy a new one. I decided to give Lenovo a chance. This seemed to have what I was looking for except I was not happy about windows 10, but then again that's pretty standard in new computers. After reading all the reviews, I decided to buy this one. A bit disappointed in how slow it seems to be. No matter what web browser I use, I have problems with the pages freezing. All my updates are up to date and currant. One of the biggest reasons I decided to get this one over others was because it said that it was good for multitasking and windows 10 would effortlessly support of my programs. This is what seems to slow it down. So I'm disappointed in that. Set up was quick and easy, and although I do have wifi at home, I decided to use it with an ethernet card, which made it a bit faster then with wifi. I was also surprised at how flimsy the dvd drive is, although it works good, it just doesn't seem very sturdy. I'm not sue if I would recommend this computer or not. I guess it all depends on your situation and needs. I would definitely have given it 5 stars if it was this slow.

      This system should provide good speed with its Intel Pentium processor and 4GB of RAM. Be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programing errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of your Windows 10 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. lenovo
