lower quality than my previous HP PC

This PC is much lower quality than the HP PC I had to replace. The materials used to build it seem very flimsy. I hesitate to use the CD drive for fear of breaking it. I don't expect this PC to last 13 years like my previous PC.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not perfect.

The product I purchased works great. It is fast and quiet. The 2 TB drive is large enough for anything I will use the computer for. I did not rate it a 5 star because of the CD/DVD drive which I find to be flimsy and inconvenient. The vertical design means that if the computer is placed on your left, you can not see where the disk locking slot is. If I try to do it by feel the whole drawer seems to be unstable and requires you to stand up, use both hands and lock the disk in place. If you place the computer on your right, you can see the disk locking slot, but still have the feel that the drawer is not stable. Another issue is the 256GB SSD drive. I am not sure at this point if it is good or bad. The C drive is named windows and the D drive is named data, however every app you install goes to the C drive. Is there going to be a time when the drive needs more space to do what microsoft does during updates and installation?
I would recommend this to a friend!

Terrible product quality control

I bought this and took two days to install programs. All the while it occasionally would freeze. Then it started crashing including the deadly blue screen. I returned this and had to buy a different product because it was out of stock. I am hesitant now to use HP computers especially if the new one needs a lot of work. The Pavilion required bios update on startup. Wow. Faulty production.

Lots of issues with this computer! Not happy!
on January 6, 2022

Verified Purchase:Yes
The computer loses the wifi connection every 15 minutes. I can't seem to fix it and it's driving me crazy. It also can't handle a lot of apps running without having a memory issue. I can't be productive on this computer and it's a big disappointment, especially for the cost of it.
This should have been a nice, fast computer but I don't like it at all.
Can I return it?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I like it a lot

Pleasantly surprised that the Optical Drive works. I knew there was a space for the Drive made available, however I was pleasantly surprised to find I could play a CD on it. This is the preferred method to back up my PC, rather than in the "Cloud." I don't like Windows 11 too much. It's intrusive and nosey. Some ok features but it will take me some time to get used to the new Windows OS.
I would recommend this to a friend!

So Far So Good....

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've had the system for about a month, and so far it's done well and I'm happy with it--but it does take more time to really know how well it will do. I'm running 20 copies of Excel to do calculations, so it's at its maximum, and the output is excellent, and the price of the system was also excellent. And while reading the reviews there was some confusion about whether it had a CD drive--mine does, which was essential for loading legacy programs.
