Latitude E7450 UltraBook FHD – Good Buy
This was my third attempt to purchase a “renewed” laptop that actually met the description given. Each was purchased from a different vendor. The first laptop was sent with a locked BIOS. The second did not have the display resolution for FHD. This third one, purchased from Tek Refurbs, met all the specifications and after using the laptop for a few weeks we love it. Everything was in good/great shape and worked as advertised. On this third attempt I did call the vendor prior to the order to verify the product met the specifications listed. I liked this renewed item so much that we’ll be purchasing some type of desktop model for my father, and it will be from Tek Refurbs. My experience so far with “renewed” items is that some vendors pay more attention to the advertised specs than others, and it’s my belief that Tek Refurbs does pay attention. The first two vendors were ok to work with and I had no issues with refunds or restocking fees, etc. My advice for those shopping for renewed items is to fully understand the advertised specifications and make sure the product you ordered meets them. Don’t be shy to negotiate with the vendor if the product you received doesn’t meet those specs. Some features, like a backlit keyboard, were important to me. You can negotiate with these vendors over pricing if the product fails to meet advertised specs.

Machine overheats and shuts down
I read about a problem with shutting down in other reviews and hoped it was isolated but it’s true. The machine begins to run hot and then shuts down. If anything is placed near the left rear side vent or in front of the keyboard, it shuts down. I’ve placed on risers and it helps but still if anything is close to the back vent it shuts down.I like the unit overall. It takes me about a month to go through all the change overs to a new unit. This problem is really bad in that I now may have to start over with a new unit. Will reach out to CSR for help but not hopeful due to what appears a faulty product design.

A great purchase!
No issues with this laptop.It is an upgrade for me from a Dell E6420, so I’m thrilled with the performance and screen quality.Yes, there are some blemishes, in my case the mouse button between the G, H & B keys is seriously worn. Other than that, this unit arrived much nicer than other laptops I’ve bought refurbished, but in excellent condition. Came with a real Dell A/C charger.I can’t comment on battery life, I use it plugged in mainly.I recommend this. For the price it is simply unbeatable.

One very small chip in the plastic near the right edge, otherwise excellent condition, no problems.
Use for various wind synths and EWI USB. Handles it all well. Although my software people claim their works with win 11, it doesn’t. Needed a win 10 machine to be able to utilize the software. An inexpensive solution to solve 4 weeks of tech problem-solving for a brand new win 11 machine that never functioned correctly.

I have read comments on quite a few people who have ordered a laptop,most say things like battery died after a month or hard drive still had password left from previous user,scratched up ,and so on. But for those who are looking for a great deal ,Check who the seller is ?.I made sure ,by reading feedback comments to the sellers , and that the name sounded like a shop that did do renewals. IM very happy with the laptop i recieved, with no damage, looked like brand new,it works perfect, no battery issues,and quick enough for my uses.also it was delivered within a week of my order,5 stars for these guys .Thanx.

it works , as it should

Great for gaming
