This was absolute junk. We bought it on Black Friday. We had purchased another from Target to see how they compare (the BB rep assured us this one would out perform the one from Target). You couldn’t do anything at all, due to how slow it was. Loading a basic page took forever. Forget loading anything else.

Buyer beware, this laptop cannot perform base funtions. If you're buying it for the calculator app, this may be for you. Wanna browse the internet? You're gonna have a bad time. Wanna watch a streaming video? HA! Good luck. This is to the laptop world what the Yugo was to the automobile world. At least the yugo kind of worked brand new.

We are sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Lenovo IdeaPad 1-14 laptop. 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 programming 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. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686.
