Customer reviews for Refurbished Dell Desktops

Once ah found that some items were not on this refurbished item had to spend more money on a driver and usb dongle so my wife can get on the INTERNET a warning about this could of saved time, what ah can see now that we are on the internet it works excellently so far earl days

It's a Dell Optiplex, what can you say, perfectly fine. The Windows install was a disgrace, but I wiped the disk within 5 minutes, so who cares. On the other hand, the processor was an i7-9700, rather than an i5-9500, which was a nice free upgrade.

It's a great little machine. Very capable for the price and, more importantly, the size. I have two. One is for usual desktop activities. The CPU, ample memory and plenty of disk space work well. Windows 11 works without any issues. Office 365 and OneDrive are all installed and synced. Just be aware that there are no HDMI ports, just a pair of Display Ports. Cheap adapters fix that, no problem. Be careful with cheap HDMI cables if used with an adapter. I had issues with display glitches. A new cable fixed it. Running well at 2 X 4K. It can even run Minecraft with a few adjustments. The other machine I use as a web server. I ditched MS Windows 11 in favour of Ubuntu server. Nginx, MySQL, WordPress, Magento, etc... Works well for my low-load applications.

Absolutely amazing experience: the product is exactly as described, and it's been working 24/7 since then without a hitch. It's also arrived before I expected it. Great experience, and terrific seller.

Honestly can’t rave about this company enough. The computer arrived in fantastic condition. Communication was on point and delivery was super quick. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company to anyone. Thank you so much!

Quick dispatch, arrived well packed. Easy set up, but microsoft dont make transfering from pc to pc very easy. Eventually got the accounts up and running, after appearing to lose tons of folders from the external harddrive, not sure why but had to buy recovery software to find all my music and photos. All appears to be working well, with 8gb ram its nice and fast at loading, the soundcard i think is a upgrade on my old pc as the music sounds improved. So im quite happy with my purchase.

I just received the system, and everything is working perfectly. It's a nice machine. Just wanted to let the company know they should include the HDMI display port, as it was not included. The rest is perfect. Thanks

The PC was delivered on time. One minor scratch on the case, which is expected on a used machine. It was clean inside and out with the exception of the case fan: They missed that bit🙂 All worked fine on startup with Windows 11 installed and ready to go!

I've only just got round to setting this up. As it happens I worked for Dell in a variety of roles, some of them technical, quite a few years ago but I've stayed loyal to the brand, and I'm not averse to sorting issues out myself. I bought the box to replace a still functional but aging Optiplex 790, which wouldn't upgrade to Windows 11, and I wanted a spec that would last. I was a shade disappointed that it didn't have an optical drive but I have a USB one so it's not a major drawback. I also failed to do my homework and found I couldn't connect my monitor to it owing to me not having a Displayport cable, (the 790 was DVI-D) which proved harder to obtain than I expected (Curry's PC World don't stock them in-store, but they could order me one - no thanks, I'm quite able to go on-line myself). I had also poked around inside and initially thought the hard drive was missing - then discovered it was an on-board 1Tb card - how technology has moved on...... Now up and running, and wow is it blisteringly quick - as it should be. This spec, albeit on a new platform, would have cost me more than double, had I ordered it from Dell. Last problem remaining is how to get MS Office on it wi...
