Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the ideacentre 300S's price, ease of use, performance, and compact size, finding it suitable for basic computing tasks. However, customers are negative about the motherboard, RAM, and hard drive reliability, with some experiencing failures shortly after purchase. The small form factor is a plus for many, but some users felt the included RAM and storage were insufficient. Issues with the cooling fan were also reported by a few users.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    I purchased this a little over 90 days ago. It was very slow from the start but thought it was my DSL service/router. The fan burned out yesterday and to recover my hard drive I'll need to buy a new fan or a new PC. Poor quality PC!!!

    I bought this computer for my mother who is an older aged user and computer challenged. It is simple to use and has a few features. The price was quite reasonable and it has enough speed and memory to do the simple activities such as reading email and downloading simple items from the net.

    When my other computer got malware on it, we had to get a new computer but didn't want to spend a lot of money. We went into the store, had a very knowledgeable salesperson help us out and ended up with this one. It works great and we feel we got a terrific price!
