Customer Ratings & Reviews

I give this 5 stars because I knew exactly what I was getting...a laptop that is mainly used for my kids doing homework and stream Netflix or Hulu content without breaking the bank.

I bought this computer for my courses. I download some programs like Java and VLC media player for special video format which window medial player cannot open. It works very well.

The laptop is sleek and light, performs wells and is a great deal for the price.

This computer is a no frills model that has enough power and speed for email, typing and online surfing. No crashes and no hesitation while I am using is a welcome relief. Love this machine.

Love this laptop. It has everything I need and doesn't cost a fortune.

Normally I read the negative reviews first, but because this wasn't 1 of the 3 we were intending to purchase so I only did a quick scan while in the store. Big mistake. This computer, purchased as a gift for my hubby who only surfs, emails and uses Facebook, ran slow immediately out of the box. After setting up the computer he upgraded to Windows 10, second mistake. It took just over 36 hrs for the upgrade process to complete which is utterly ridiculous. (This could also be as a result of the well documented loss of WiFi issue.) It seems there just isn't sufficient RAM for the upgrade because the computer runs so slow that it is annoying. He has yet to save anything to the hard drive and it is running slower than his 2007 Satellite running Vista. Once documents are transferred will this even be usable? (Ex. Opening an Edge web page from the bottom menu-9 seconds to open the page and another 3 before the cursor could be placed. Opening an email from the start menu- 10 seconds to open just the program.) Boot up is excessively long for a computer that doesn't have any personal data stored on it. For those who care the cheap feeling case is a fingerprint magnet. As a power user, I did not expect this to be a lightning fast computer, nor did I expect for it to hold a tremendous amount of data; I do, however believe that it should be quite capable for the light duty that he expects from it. It is not. I have never had to return a computer in the 30 yrs that I have owned PC/laptop/tablets, but this will be going back today, the 4th day of ownership.

so far so good, got it for my husband at half the cost I paid for mine a few years ago, like that it has a lot of memory

This is by far....and I'm talking at least 10 years..the WORST computer for anyone to buy. It's a pc of junk and for the money! You DO get what you pay for. I returned it the next day. Don't even bother to try and work with it. You can hit the bar on a button and it'll take at least a minute for the computer to even make a move. I hit the dang thing so many times and nothing. It's sloooooooooow. and the plays just online games even worse. The HP touch screen with Intel chip is by far much munch better....and worth the extra money. Wait for holiday sales and grab it...399

Since my last review, the laptop has finally updated. I never choose "optional" updates unless they have something to do with what I use. It is however, aggravating to keep getting the ads popping up everywhere but hopefully if I say "no" enough they will stop. It's not a bad laptop. Just very frustrating for a few days because it was so slow. It is getting better and I do not regret the purchase.

From the start I fell in love with Toshibas Satellite series. And the C55 really hit a grand slam. The keys type smooth. The back spaces and delete keys are hands down better than HP. I returned an HP from a competitor near Baltimore. This was the best move I ever made. I highly recommend the Toshiba Satellite C55 with Intel. You can't go wrong.

It's a good buy for basic use. It's light and sleek. Be very careful with it because of the lightweight and easy to crack screen.

Processor is very slow. Doesn't configure to TV even when you change the PC settings. Disconnects from wireless internet to often. Streaming movies has poor picture quality. Laptop gets very hot on your lap.

Still works after 6 years. Seems that cortana slowed things up after a while. Proud to say this computer was a best buy at the time. Would recommend for those who just needed the basics for a bit.

This PC is good for basic Internet browsing. The good thing about it is it comes with a DVD-ROM drive!

My wife bought this laptop for me as a Christmas gift. Right out of the box it randomly: crashes, loses internet connection, refuses to update, & is slow as a dog! Because it was a gift I don't have the heart to tell her it's junk. 7 months later I can't take it anymore and in the trash it goes... literally not worth $39.99 brand new.

First bought this laptop and thought it was outfitted great ! The specs were pretty great and it was delivered super fast. I should have returned it. I exclusively used this for schoolwork and not too soon after trying to customize and change everything, this is legitimately the slowest working laptop I have ever used. Think of using windows 98 on the windows 8 interface. Which by the way, windows 8 is the worst interface windows has decided to share with the world. If you can figure out how to downgrade to windows 7 (it's a cheap enough laptop where you can pay someone 100$ to do it, I just sold mine it wasn't worth the trouble), it may be a laptop worth keeping. But personally between the hard drive running so slow and issues I had connecting to the internet I skipped it. Save yourself the frustration if you have serious work to do in it. If it's for something simple like browsing the net (which at that point buy yourself a netbook) don't bother.

This is the first review I have ever wrote...ever. This computer is slower than pond water. I couldn't even type this review on it cause ie keeps crashing on it. Oh, and the constant disconnects are awesome when researching things. I knew I was getting a low end laptop, but geez this is BAD

This one is an excellent choice for those who need a pocket-safe, yet quality laptop. I am happy I bought it!

I owned a Toshiba Satellite before this one and had no problems. So I ignored the reviews that stated that this laptop was VERY SLOW...I shouldn't have. It often states that it's not connected or has a limited connection to the internet when everything else in the home is working fine (Smart TVs, Tablets etc.). I have been frustrated with this laptop from the time I took it out the box a month ago...HORRIBLE!!!

Laptop is really good but it is very light weight.
