Received a refurbished unit! My first red flag was the box — it was already open and unsealed. After powering it on, the fan was extremely loud, to the point that it was distracting to both me and others in my class. It honestly felt like I was sent someone else’s returned (and defective) laptop. If you decide to order this model, make absolutely sure you’re not receiving a refurbished unit. We got our bad (and returned) unit from Cardinal Pro Electronics. The "Pro" stands for "Previously Returned, Obviously"...

It's a good laptop, overlooking the fact that they clearly don't specify that it's a refurbished product. It arrived in perfect condition, in its original box with everything, and it works relatively well. The only problem perhaps is the battery, which lasts approximately 5-6 hours, but for me it's enough. Good for light gaming and for work.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Excellent value computer. Well worth the money.

1. There are two little sharp points on the back edge of the lid. When the lid is opened past 90 degrees they poke into the desk it's sitting on and will gouge the surface. I glued a couple of little bumbers to hold the body up higher. 2. As you can see, the arrow keys are buried in the keyboard and the up & down are half size. Looks neat, almost impossible to love if you actually use them. 3. It comes with Window 11, which is hard to like. The taskbar is froze at the bottom, plus a dozen other little annoyances. I erased W11 and installed Linux. That works well and has a keyboard remap function, partly solving problem #2. 4. The speakers are worthless junk. The guys at HP and Microsoft could have avoided these problems were they competent engineers who'd ever used a computer before.

Nice laptop, good quality, works great :)

It more than meets expectations.
