    On initial startup, I got "Fan Error" message and it would not go further. Obviously, refurbisher company did not do quality control.

    So far this laptop has been great. I have the same brand for work but a (T490) so I decided to buy similar (T470) for personal use to swap it to use with the docking station and be able to use 2 monitors with it. So glad I did, works like a charm.

    Poorly Functioning Spacebar on Refurbished Lenovo

    My refurbished thinkpad works great OTHER than the space bar is jammed and barely functions correctly. Not usually a problem when I use my at home keyboard but working on the go or while traveling is a big struggle because of the inadequate space bar.

    Never buy anything from best buy refurbished. Immediately after the return period, the computer stopped working. We sent it back two times for the same problem, the battery and charger did not work. The computer could not be powered on. It has been three months and we have not been able to use the computer.

    Love the T470….bought several for our staff about 5 years ago and they have been wonderful. No complaints, no issues. When I saw this refurb for a fair price I grabbed it and so far it’s performing as expected!

    Use it for work. So graphics didn’t need to be good, but they’re not terrible. Processing speed is pretty fast, haven’t had any issues with waiting for windows or programs to load.
