Verified purchaseA great quality laptop, exactly as described. Much better value than buying brand new and yet it looks, behaves and feels brand new! It’s really good to know that less raw materials are being used when I buy from Backmarket. So much less wasteful to use a good refurbished second hand item. Thank you Backmarket.

Verified purchaseWhen i bought my laptop an Elitebook 2019 ryzan, i was skeptical and didn't know what to expect. But i have to say i was impressed when it arrived it was more than what i expected for a second hand laptop. I'd recommend BackMarket to anyone looking to get a refurbished laptop.

Verified purchaseIt is more than what I expected. Just a few-very small scratches but very small. If you are hesitant to buy a refurbished laptop like I was, Back Market changed my mind I am very pleased with my purchase. Thank you for the service

Verified purchaseWoooo - I LOVE Backmarket! New Dell Inspiron worked out of the box - loaded with Windows 11 - seamless - the order arrived almost immediately - and for £250 it’s a great laptop for personal use - emails, net surfing and streaming videos😹😹👍🎉🎉 And for a device in fair condition it looks great / screen and keyboard are mint - one tiny flaw on outer case but for the price it’s what’s inside that counts and that’s guaranteed refurbished and that’s working just fine😹

Verified purchaseI recently purchased a refurbished laptop from Back Market. The product was marketed as being in good condition. The laptop arrived in a couple of days and on time. Upon opening the condition was definitely at the top end of being good. The laptop was very easy to set up, helpful step by step instructions were available as soon as I logged on. I have now been using the product for a couple of weeks and am really happy with the purchase.

Verified purchaseJust bought a Dell Latitude 5400 from Back Market. The service so far has been fantastic. I bought the laptop in fair condition (as it was the only option left for that model) and it arrived in an impeccable state. Looks like it just left the shop shelf. The speed and performance is amazing. Thank you Back Market.

Verified purchaseI bought the Dell Latitude 5400 and it has been much better than expected, I bought a different laptop a while back as a gift and the experience was not great but this laptop was excellent, I am very glad to have bought it.

Verified purchaseDell Latitude 5400 14-inch (2019) - Core i5-8265U - 16GB - SSD 256 GB. This arrived in good time and in perfect condition, I honestly can't find a mark on it. There was only about £40 difference between 'fair' and 'excellent' condition, which now seems well worth the extra. Quick to set up and lightning-fast in operation, this laptop has a great 'feel' to it - satisfying keys and functions with just the right amount of 'click' and resistance. I'm well pleased with this, my second purchase from Back Market , and would recommend them and the product to anyone. Only one small point, the laptop was packaged in a plain brown box, which is ideal, but it didn't have a 'fragile' label on it. As I said it was in perfect condition, but a label might encourage a more gentle approach from a courier, avoiding potential rough treatment of the package.

Verified purchaseThe Dell arrived quickly and in pristine condition. I was able to get up and going very quickly. I sent my old Mac Air back for reconditioning and got £48 off of the already good price. It came with Windows 10 installed and though I mostly use Macs, it wasn’t long before I was able to get things set up. This is my fifth item purchased from Back Market and have been happy each time.
