If you get down to the bare bones of what you want this laptop to do, for me it was responding to emails and watching youtube in my bedroom instead of going across the house to my home office, this gets the job done without the bells and whistles you've paid for in other laptops that you'll probably never use. I think is a great little laptop, if it were slightly bigger with a more spread out keyboard that would be great and if the power button wasn't where you'd expect and escape key to be that would be a massive upgrade but for this cost I'm not mad at it.It takes a bit to get used to where everything is but the batter life alone surpasses my macbook 10 fold. It's small but it's fast and regardless of how many tabs I've got open it still works extremely well. And at this price if something broke or spilled on it or if I lost it I wouldn't feel wildly upset, I'd just go buy another.
