For the price I paid, I got a quality Dell laptop with mid-range hardware features. Significantly more than a Chromebook. It doesn't have the speed of a high-end laptop, so it is not the right choice for gaming or video editing but does well for general day-to-day use and streaming videos. The only negative is that it only has 500GB HDD, which is a tad small, but the price was right overall. If I needed another laptop, I would likely buy another one for the same price.
