I have not had alot of luck with the refurbished products over the years.  But my computer screen on my laptop suddenly cracked pretty bad and I had to send it in.  It took (still working on it) weeks to address so I had to get a backup.  I didn't want to spend alot so I took a gamble on a refurb.  It honestly looked brand new inside and out. I wouldn't have known it was a refurb.  Came with Win10, I upgraded to 11 with no issues.  I needed a laptop with some horsepower but didnt need the bells and whistles for a backup, til I get my main squeeze back.  Well this PC answered the bell.  Good performance, good enuf video, and everything works.  No bells and whistles but its a solid performer, which is precisely what I needed.  Very pleasantly surprised and happy.  Fingers crossed.
