I use a T440p for work and think it is a good laptop and it has lasted me for a long time.  I wanted to buy something similar for myself and found that T440 refurbished and thought about giving it a try.  I'm a computer technician and take good care of my computers.  Here is a reason why I give it 4 stars:1. Remember, this is a refurbished computer.  You want something new, well, you need to buy something else.  That means you can get a computer that looks completely new or might have a few scuffs.  This computer had a few scuffs and I could tell there was something different about the keyboard, however, it also told me the person who refurbished this took great care on trying to make it look as new as they possibly could.  I absolutely hate waste and am so glad whoever did this did the best job they could to get it looking newish.2. The battery was upgraded on the computer which was a nice surprise.3. This computer comes with 500GB HDD (spinner disk drives).  All my other machines use SSD's, so the first thing I did was remove the drive and install a Crucial BX200 SSD in the device (Crucial, Kingston, Samsung, and many other SSD's will work great in here).  The computer works fantastic with that little upgrade.  If you do purchase this computer, though, be very careful on removing the back.  You will need a plastic spudger tool (link below) in order to remove the back cover to install a new drive or RAM.  Anything metal will damage the device. If you do remove the back cover, first loosen or remove all screws.  Then remove the SIM card slot (found next to the headphone jack) which can be done by using a paperclip in the small hole.  Then gently with the spudger tool wedge open the bottom part of the case.  This is the same for T450s and T460s as well.4.  The price and the warranty for 4 years was very reasonable.  I normally never purchase a warranty, but since it was only $50 some, and not knowing how much life is left in the machine, it wasn't a bad gamble.5.  This is the only thing I have to report as to why I didn't give 5 stars.  When the computer was shipped to me I was given an older style circle power cable.  This works in models T430 and earlier.  I'm sure this was a simple mistake, but I contacted Amazon and they are sending me a brand new T440s power cable (which should work just fine).That's all I have to report and am a happy customer.Spudger Tool:
