MY COMPUTER SOUNDED LIKE A HELICOPTER LANDING IN MY HOUSE. THEN WHEN YOU PLUG THE MONITOR IN IT DIDNT EVEN WORK. SUCH A BAD CHOICE. NOW I HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE RETURN PROCESS. ALL FOR NOTHING7-10-09
this complete set up (less speakers) i thought was a great deal, plus its a DELL! i bought this for a friend to learn with and so far he's doing great, system performs with ease and the speed of the system and download wee above average for this type of system, shipping time and packing were to the best of any and I'm in the transport field, overall the only way it could be beat would be another great deal from these guys, as for me yes i will buy from here again refurbished means the item I'm getting had a more hands on & assembly when put together and for me that's the best !
What a great value! I decided to upgrade the memory, and added a couple more memory chips to it, bringing the RAM from 512 to 1GB. It' races along now, although it was quite adequate for my Dad's purposes at the lower memory. And, thank goodness, it runs Windows XP, not Vista. I have two machines with Vista, and I hate it. You can't beat this deal.
I was looking for an inexpensive PC and this fit the bill!
This was a Father's Day gift for the spouse. He is overjoyed with its performance. Delivery was faster than expected and the set up was not difficult at all. We were all surprised that this was a factory refurbish because it looks brand new. Would definitely buy another Dell and refurbished again.
The computer was received in a very timely manner, was very easy to install. Was very dissapointed in the keyboard. It had to be the cheapest keyboard I've ever had the pleasure of dealing with. I had to find a keyboard to replace the one that came standard with the computer. Was very upset that it didn't include any microsoft office software. I guess I thought that would be standard. Would I buy refurbished again?, no. When I had the cable company come in to install the wireless internet card on the computer, they had a very hard time getting it taken care of. They said that the computer was dated. Which led me to believe it was just simply old. I think all of those things should be disclosed before purchase.
This was exactly what I wanted, a great buy, no regrets.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? matched
- Was the product free of any manufacturer defects? yes
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. great
I ordered & recieved in a prompt time frame. Only issue I had with the refurbished tower was a power problem. I contacted overstock.com and informed them, they sent me a return label for me to send it back. I had the replacement back in about a week and haven't had any problems with the replacement tower.
This computer is wonderful. The kids love the speed. Screen is very sharp. We love it. Have already recommended this to several family members.
I purchased this PC for my mother, who really wants only a glorified word processor. She got so much more. An excellant bargain for the price. We received a fully functional PC that is almost as good as my home desk top for 0.1 the price. Great value for those on a budget.
It is very simple to use. Everyone should have one. GET IT!
I ordered this computer on Sept 30th. Received on October 2nd. The floppy drive was missing and Windows XP was not fully installed. The computer would not boot up. I called the Technical Support number listed in the packing. Shipped it out and have not gotten it back yet. When I actually have the computer and use it, I hope to write a better review.
Purchased computer for mother in law to replace a Gateway (8 yrs old) installation was 1,2,3 - Easy as can be, if you can read you can install, needless to say she is happy with it
Everything worked great right out of the box. For the price this has been the best packaged purchase made. It has made an older family member very happy.
The tower looked very used when I recieved the shipment. I got the computer up and running very quickly but a few days after, the computer began restarting over and over again till the screen went black. I had to upload windows XP again and it is just all screwed up now!!! I guess I got a lemon from reading all the other reviews. I am very disappointed. I guess you get what you pay for. Good thing my brother is a computer engineer!!
Love, Love this computer...got it right on time, packaged with such great care. Very easy instructions to set up and got it running in under 20 minutes. Cant' beat it with a stick for the price. Fast processer and for a refurbished, it was clean and really looks brand new. Great deal!!!!
The computer is great! The only thing is that the mouse was broken.
Computer was exactly as described -- outstanding quality for a great price!! Just what a freshman in high school needed!
I was looking for an affordable computer and thought i would try overstock and they hit the spot. I was very happy when i received the computer it works great and does the job for what i neeed. Just wish it could play and record dvds Its a good computer for the price and was happy with shipping!
I recieved the item with no instructions for the monitor. I had to buy A connection for the monitor. The mouse literally fell apart using it. Had to use my old mouse. Hope everyone has bettere luck!
