After two years of use and a $700 investment, the battery (which has been problematic for the last few months) suddenly ceases to operate. Even though it’s plugged in, it refuses to power on. And make no mistake: this MacBook has been given every possible precaution imaginable to prevent any conceivable malfunction. Not once was it left on the charger for a minute longer than necessary (which can, and does, fry the battery prematurely), it was never dropped, subjected to extreme temperature, or handled in any way that could explain its total, abrupt failure. Forgive me, maybe I’m irrational, but it just seems to me that (refurbished or not) a MacBook Pro shouldn’t be failing in any capacity within such a brief timespan. I withheld a negative review and decided to contact the seller first, but after receiving a reply that basically says “not my problem, after 90 days you’re on your own,” I think that this is warranted. These are supposed to be superior machines that deliver the best performance, and the product page is overloaded with the typical “promises of quality” and (false) assurances of their commitment to high standards. What a humiliating, colossal joke - and since I rely on my MacBook to earn a living, they’ve really proven how much they care about their customers’ experiences. Save your money. Buy a MacBook from a random, toothless stranger peddling them in front of a deli or something - you’ll probably find that they’re a much more trustworthy option than whoever’s hawking these abominations.
