I just made my day by getting a Lenovo tower it's very fast and clear and I am very happy thanks

My Lenovo tower

Computer only support 2 displays. Manual/specs say "Supports up to 2 independent displays via onboard ports (VGA and HDMI), more displays support via discrete graphics" but if you connect a discrete graphics the onboard graphics display is disabled and cannot be enabled (through device manager or BIOS). Computer could be okay if you only need 2 monitors but I bought a card to get a third (possibly 4th) display and it didn't work. Support is totally useless and would not answer, just sending me to "the specs" and trying to upsell me on an extended warranty (why would I want to extend support when you can't help me AT ALL?). The proprietary design means I can't add a PSU to put in a more powerful GPU, so I am stuck with this as it is. Shouldn't have bought a prebuilt!

Discrete GPU disables onboard display

Fast, looks good, and handles any job I've thrown at it with ease. The sliding front panel is nicer than I thought. It will help keep anydust out of the front USB ports and the memory card reader when I'm not using it. And it is nice to have the memory card reader in the front again! had an all-in-one where it was on the bottom! Great performance for a decent price!

Loving My New PC

Very good machine, the only drawbacks so far is with the design of the front of the case. The design of the front makes it impossible to load/eject a cd while having a usb stick inserted in the front ports or card in the card reader. While not a huge inconvenience, If you do still use cd's it could be a pain. The only other issue is that it does not come with a case fan which could cause some heat issues it certain environments.

Great prebuilt computer

This is the first computer that I've ever purchased in over 20 years that was not custom made. Even so, it is the fastest and most quiet computer. Speed and memory are the two most important elements of a computer for me, and this computer fits my needs perfectly.

Off the shelf top quality!

Very good product so far. I bought this last month and i enjoy it.

Good product

The Lenovo desk top I purchased a few weeks ago is the ideal desk top for a home office.  It is fast and comes loaded with necessary software. It also has good storage capacity.

Ideal Desk Top For a Home Office

That front-facing, sliding panel that hides either the optical drive (on one side), or the other connections/ports/power switch (on the other side),seems to be a needless thing that promotes inefficiency.

Why the sliding panel on front?

No complaints so far.  It?s very is to use.  Going through training modules is a breeze.

User friendly

Easy to install and easy to use. It was up and running in just a few minutes.

Easy

Thought it would be faster. Doesn?t seem to have more speed than my old computer that was purchased in 2008.

It?s ?ok?

Very easy to get started working.  Plenty of input ports.  I have been quite satisfied.

Very good for the price.

Nice and easy I get my new tower with no complications

Excellent service

Bought 2 weeks ago and working fine. Few setup instructions but not really necessary since was easy to do. Sliding panel for Cds no problem for me. Quiet. Fast. This Lenovo works for me!

New Lenovo Purchase

I prefer to use an actual keyboard, mouse and a fast desktop computer when I do research for vacation plans and paying my bills online. I also prefer to use a desktop for uploading pictures from my camera and phone. I find it so much easier to see all on a large monitor. So, when I was shopping for a new computer I found this Lenovo on sale at Best Buy at a reasonable price. I use Lenovo computers at work because they are very reliable. So, that made my decision even easier when I bought my desktop. And, yes it's fast and has lots of storage. Most of all, it's very quiet.

Fast amd reliable

I've had this for a month now and I am loving it! Easy to set up and doesn't seem as cluttered as others.

DVD player is hidden behind the silver slider...

Needed to replace an old HP running windows7 up graded to 10 was haveing some problems with it . So went to the web and check some reviews that said it would work for what i needed.

Needed a replacement for old HP

I don't like having to move the front cover to access the power button or the cd port.

lenovo desk top

This is the worst computer I've ever purchased. It died 2 weeks after getting it. What made it die, I changed the RAM. If you want to play games, don't buy this computer.

Don't Buy This Computer

I switched from a Gateway, This was an easy set-up and performs great. I am very happy with my new tower,

I switched from a Gateway,

My Dell died during a power outage and although I have a laptop I wanted another desktop. PC does what it's supposed to do. Fast boot up. It is the strangest tower I've ever worked on.  You can not access the DVD & USB drives at the same time. There is a slide that goes up and down and in the up position you get the power switch and USB drives. In the down position you get the DVD drive. If you position the PC as a tower it's hard to use the DVD drive since it's upright and the disc slips off unless you press hard. I turn it on its side and put my printer on top of it.

OK For the Price

It does the job, seems to be a good sleek and eye friendly model. My only complaint is that the silver front side came slid over the ports/power button and I about broke it sliding it over. Not sure if its made that way? Either way, not a fan of the front design

Good computer overall

Nice Desktop, ez setup, quick and easy to learn.  Though it intuitive a small setup, handbook would have been nice for the price paid.

Nice small compact desktop machine

So far no issues. Nice look, kind of heavy but, runs great, has plenty of ports.

I enjoy it so far.

Computer is fast. Easy to set up. I do not like the face that slides and covers the usb ports on the front of the machine when I try to use the DVD/CD player as it will not allow things to be plugged in while doing so.  It should at least be more narrow to allow use of both sides of the computer front. Microsoft hijacked all my files and made them word files when I don't use Microsoft word.

Pro's and Con's

Nice machine for less. Bought additional sata SSD for cheap and using original 1TB drive for storage. Could use more memory, but doing well. Weird form factor, so will have to be careful with PCIe cards (Low profile here). Power cable to board has 4 pins separated instead of eight, so shop accordingly for expansions and whatnot. Still, a very decent machine for what you pay.

Worth it for the casual user

Does the work, easy set up, functional and affordable, not bad for 2020

Does the job!

It is small and easy to set-up, and it was less than the higher cost  ones

I am very please with it.

The CD drive is very flimsy. I do not see it lasting the life of the computer. If I had a do-over, I would not have bothered with the drive.

CD Drive option

Works great, better than I hoped for. Will look at this brand first in the future.
