    This computer cost me $150 on sale. As long as you remember you get what you pay for, you won't be disappointed with the Lenovo - Ideapad 100s. Pros: Inexpensive; long battery life; free one year subscription to Microsoft Office; lightweight and stylish Cons: 32-bit Windows 10; limited storage and RAM; no 5G Wi-Fi; relatively slow

    For what this laptop was made for, a very worthwhile buy. Considering that Office is included, this laptop will cost you less than $100.00! Where can you buy a laptop for under this price? This laptop is good for the basics. I use it for receiving and sending emails. Pretty fast for the specs on this computer. The only thing I don't care about is the color red. Other than this a very worthwhile buy.

    Very light, key board is responsive. Purchased for a student who needed something small; and it is. My only issue is I purchased it as an open box item but they wouldn't let me open the box to check it out. I had to purchase it and open it in the parking lot.

    I bought this item because I was between a rock and a hard place; the price at the time couldn't be beat, and the specs were the minimum necessary, but would work for my needs at the time. Don't get me wrong, this isn't a bad machine, but it's more for the high-school/post-secondary student on a really tight budget who most likely will beat the thing to death before the soldered-in battery fails. It's not upgradable, though with the SSD it's a fast boot (good for classwork), it's really lightweight, and the footprint is small enough that it'll fit into most any schoolbag/backpack/large purse with room to spare. Cheap, fast and small; just what a student needs.

    I wanted something simple and easy to use yet small and portable for my daughters home schooling. So far the product works well. Only issue I have is getting the external CD-ROM Drive to be recognized by Windows 10. It's hit and miss and I tend to have to restart the computer a lot for it to find it and be able to use it. Other than that it has been working very well.

      Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad 100s-11. With regard to using the external CD/DVD drive, check with the manufacturer at their web site for Windows 10 driver updates. There may be a new driver available that will help with the problem you describe. lenovo

    Good Basic Laptop

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

    I think I bought this with higher expectations from Lenovo than what I actually got. Don't get me wrong, it's a good basic laptop and you can't beat the price. However, it feels fragile and almost cheap. I am having some trouble when I type emails. For some reason, the machine doesn't write fluidly and it takes several tries to finish the sentence or message. Everything else works fine. Just know that this is a very basic machine. Nothing fancy. Just good.

    I bought this for my son (8 years old), and this was perfect. It is small enough to be easily transportable, and it runs Windows, so it very easy to use. The keyboard is the perfect fit for the little hands. Great product! !
