Used/refurbished laptops are like a box of chocolates. You never know...
Even considering the Con, I'd probably buy this again.
Overall, the machine is in fine condition and well-suited to the user and the use; The price was significantly better than new and with an SSD, there's not a lot to wear out; The refurbisher covered most of the surfaces with a nice stick-on veneer, which is actually quite nice and makes the machine...
The only problem is, they also covered the track pad; The trackpad still works, but it's a little less responsive than usual and being ridged, it's a little weird to use; I don't think I can remove it without damaging the machine; Certainly not the end of the world, but a little disappointing
