The 13-inch MacBook Air features 8GB of memory, a fifth-generation Intel Core processor, Thunderbolt 2, great built-in apps, and all-day battery life.* It’s thin, light, and durable enough to take everywhere you go—and powerful enough to do everything once you get there.

Had the 2012 Macbook Air, which I sold because I used an iPad rather than a computer. Would not have bought this except at $699 as Deal of the Day, it was too good to pass up. The 2017 model is faster then my previous MacBook Air. While the IOS takes up more room than it used to, it is less space than Windows and doesn’t constantly update. Bought a cheap Dell that can no longer update Windows because of lack of room. The Air is older technology, as reviews point out, but my Apple products have always been very reliable and Apple stores are available and the staff is helpful. I have some familiarity with several systems and find Apple just more user friendly. It took longer to find something as basic as line spacing in Word, while Pages had it immediately visible. The Air may be a bit dated and lack a retina screen, but keeping it simple and quality control are worth something. Keyboard and track pad are still among the very best. Read the Air wil either be updated and cheaper or discontinued, but who knows. Think Air is a good value if deeply discounted, which makes the it very competitive with the endless Windows machines that are on the market, many of which are not even in stores to actually experience things like touch screen, keyboard and touch pad.

Good little DVD drive

Unfortunately Best Buy has few DVD drives in store, so had few choices. Initially paid full price, which I thought was too much. Luckily a week later it went on sale for $25. B.B. gave me credit which I used for something else. Prompts were a little hard to follow to get it installed but finally did. Loaded 2 programs which worked fine. That’s all I’ve used it for so far.

For a little guy it seems fine

Got this as an open box for $122. I read a lot of reviews for several laptops with the 32 gig flash drive. I just needed a windows machine to run an astrology program and maybe for an occasional document. I don’t store music or photos. I already owned Word so I didn’t need Office. Took out bloatware. Have about 4 1/2 gigs of space left. Read some reviews where people said they get more space but I don’t know how. Keyboard a little small and touch pad not great but for what I need, and given the price, it is okay. Not the sleekest looking but I had two Dell computers and both lived forever (in XP and lacked enough RAM to go to Windows 10) This is what I would call a disposable devise. For light use it works fine.

I hardly use computers anymore. I do almost everything on iPad. Had the Air but when price dropped to $249 for newer iPad I traded it in. I wanted more RAM and speed. Not disappointed. It doesn’t get as cluttered and it loads pages faster. Everything else is pretty much the same. Happy with purchase.

Seemed okay

Returned because I found my missing charger to another DVD I have. I did try it out to see if it was better then what I have. Picture was a little grainy and devise seemed a bit bulky. It is one of the few with a 10 inch screen, which is nice. It seemed fine for the deal of day price of $49. If it was much more probably would not get.

It fit and matches rest of kitchen. There is one thing. Photo is not accurate. It has a more substantial presence, which is great but the trim on top looks like a gunmetal grey. When we opened the box we saw is was black. For us, it was fine because we have some black trim on other appliances but if we didn't I would not have been happy. Doubt I will buy anything large online unless I see it in the store. Light is great. I don't cook a lot so don't use vent. Beginning to think 1/2 my kitchen is for decoration.

Returning but trying again

Posted by: Gollfgirl

Verified Purchase:Yes
Have to return because freezer too cold and freezer door jams. Will get same model and see if that works properly. Not many to choose from for small kitchen, especially if you want counter depth
Pros: fits where most refrigerators don't. it is absolutely gorgeous and counter depth opens up the look of the kitchen. Great lighting. Has longer warranty then most brands.
Cons: Cannot adjust most shelves so if you have a lot of tall items might be a problem. Can work around that. Very delicate cleaning outside, compared to other stainless steel brands. Freezer quite small. Did not hook up ice maker as have read ice/water is biggest troublemaker in newer refrigerators. Not sure if at this point would recommend. Have to see what happens with next one.

It's just ink. Not much to say except it is less expensive then other brands. It was fine and saved a few buck with Best Buy.

Cool down wherever you are with this Honeywell comfort control tower fan. It slowly oscillates so that you can keep the air in your room flowing smoothly, yet it's quiet, as it only makes 52 dB of noise on its fastest setting. This Honeywell comfort control tower fan has an auto-off feature so that you can safely leave it on.

Got this same fan a year ago and liked it. When I saw it was a deal-of-the-day I got a second one. It is pretty quite most of of the time, at least on the low setting, which is normally enough to stay cool. Got it mostly because I prefer white Instead of black. It looks good and for the sale price it is a great buy.

Is there a conversion available from 36"to a 30"
The cut out is for a 36'. Is there a kit available to convert this to accept a 30 ' cooktop?

Can I Downgrade To Windows 7?
Okay, so I am looking to purchase a new laptop, and since Asus is a very reliable brand, I am going for this lovely product here. So I have come to notice that most of the newer products automatically come with Windows 8. I am more comfortable with Windows 7, so I would love to have it, say I purchase a newer laptop. Will I be able to downgrade to Windows 7? I am not sure if the action is possible seeing how it is indeed a touch screen.
In theory possible but not worth effort for such an inexpensive machine. Touch screen is handy and you would lose that. I had a Dell in XP which could not upgrade. I bit bullet and Microsoft store up grade the Asus to 8.1 and clear out bloats are.. Would prefer 7 but it is I okay this way.

Is the photo ok?
when I saw this product I was interested but then i read that it is a 11.6", but how is possible that a 11.6" laptop has the full keyboard? that why i am asking, is the photo ok?
Keyboard is a little cramptrd and no backlight keyboard. But for the money, $200, it has a lot of bang for buck. I took out bloat ware and just put in Word so for most simple tasks it runs pretty fast. Battery life poor but plug small.

The specs say NO bluetooth.I can't find any other reviews regarding this issue.Does this mean I cant use my bluetooth headphones?
As far as I know this exact model does not have bluethooth so you can't use bluetooth item with it.

What color is this exactly? A silver top or black. The title says black but the pictures show silver.
Mine is black plastic but similar devices might come other colors.

how many hours of battery life on this unit?
some folks felt the battery life was not so great
It's no Macbook so figure 2-3 hours but it very cheap and plug is very small and light so I use that. You can get this for $200-250 so hard to complain.
