    I purchased this as a gift for my wife. She wanted something small, but more powerful than a phone. Great tablet style computer.

    I've never used a laptop prior to purchasing this one. At first it took some getting use to but now I feel like a pro. I'm not technically savvy but the ease of this laptop make me feel like I am.

    For a netbook, performance is acceptable. It becomes hard to ask much more out of an under $200 laptop with an 11 inch screen.

    Much better than I thought it would be. As long as you understand its limitations (this is not a gaming system, or one for extensive multitasking), you get an lightweight Windows 10 system with a decent keyboard and excellent battery life (10+ hours), at a remarkable value. Excellent second/backup/lightweight on-the-go system.

    Nice notebook for what it is designed to do. It is a bit on the "flimsy" side and feels especially when typing. The keyboard reveals that flimsy feeling. The screen is a bit small but for tablet users its "normal". Not being touch screen is what got this unit 4 stars. Yet, for students or those on a budget it is an excellent choice. With MS Office as a bonus it was a good value for the purchase.

    Great screen, runs all my internet apps and games, and I like the feel of the keyboard. One gripe... the touchpad isn't sensitive enough. I have to tap it several times to input on occasion.

    Very good computer for the price. Much more versatile than the chromebook and in the same price range. If I had one complaint it would be that it is smaller than I would like but that isn't enough to detract from my overall opinion of this laptop.

    Running everything off of the cloud is something that I've had to get used to and is a little more inconvenient that being able to save everything to the computer. However, you cannot find a better value than this product. Runs smoothly; it is light and very portable; also has tremendous battery life. Good product.

    Bought this for word processing and works great. Opening apps and doing intense searches are not speedy, but once apps are loaded works great for what we needed. It's lightweight and nice features for the $'s.

    For the most part I am happy. I needed something that could go online and that I could also use for spreadsheets. It has had a couple hiccups. A few times it couldn't connect to the Internet - a reboot fixed that. Another time it was on but the screen was black. Holding down the power button for 10 seconds fixed that.

    Great little guy. The only issue is that there is no CD drive. It's perfect for homework or work tasks. It's lightweight and the battery lasts a long time, which makes it ideal for travel. No bells or whistles and the office 365 sync takes a little to get used to, but perfect for what it seems intended for.

      Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad 100s-11. With regard to a CD/DVD drive, you can always use an external CD/DVD drive with this system, it just plugs into one of the USB ports. lenovo

    I wanted a tablet like device with decent battery life that i could use in bed at night that was not cumbersome and had a keyboard,.this filled the bill.I gave it 3 stars mostly on the below power processor, 1.33 ghz speed. Over all it does what I bought it for. At the right price I would recommend it.
