Very pleasantly surprised - for a laptop rated 'fair' I really struggled to find any issues at all on it aside from a very small, almost unnoticeable, scuff on the underside of one corner. Screen in perfect condition and it fires up and works spot on. Exactly want I was after and a great saving on a buying a new laptop. Delivery was super-quick (next day despite saying 3-5 working days) which is always appreciated. Thanks.

Arrived in excellent packaging and in perfect condition apart from minor scratches around power input socket. Windows 11 installed perfectly but I removed it and installed MXLinux 25 which loaded quickly and ran perfectly.

I've tried a few other makers but I went back to HP. I spent a few days with both my current and new computer running to get it set up in a more relaxed manner. I used to change to my refurb's as soon as they arrived but that adds a bit of pressure as I missed out on everyday uses like my news digests. So now I set up a new refurb over a few days with updates and fave programs, and then I can put my current laptop away as another spare. I'm glad to be back to HP and this one runs like a racing car.
