Overall an awesome laptop
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the laptop except for an issue with the wifi that goes in and out. My husband can be sitting right beside me using his and has no problem! So frustrating when you're in the middle of something and the only thing I've found to work is disconnecting and reconnecting my wifi connection. Other than that, I love it.

Horrible Experience
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had the computer less than six months and it crashed. We had to pay to have the entire system redone with the latest operating system and programs installed. It did not make it one month. The system crashed yet again and will not start up.

A+ value for the price
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this computer for about 4 days so far, so I'm cautiously optimistic about this refurb. I'd read other reviews that bashed refurbs and was apprehensive about getting this one, but I figured that the best buy money back guarantee was a good enough safety net. I'm glad I went for it. There were no issues upon startup, the system had been wiped correctly and Windows 8 reinstalled. The only sign that the computer had been opened before were slight (and I mean very slight) blemishes where it looks like a scratch or two may have been buffed out. No problem- you have to squint to really see them. I don't usually go for anything too fancy (e.g. backlit keys) because I'm too cheap. This time around I really just wanted something with the processing power and RAM that this thing has (I'm a PhD engineering student who needs something with some processing capacity). But I must say that these extra details are really fantastic. The touchscreen is too cool. The backlit keys are so fun. And on top of it all, it's much lighter and sleeker than I had expected. A+, geek squad refurb.
