I recently bought this refurbished 2017 Apple laptop, and so far, it’s been fantastic! The laptop works perfectly – it’s fast, reliable, and handles everything I throw at it with ease. No performance issues whatsoever. The battery life is solid too. The only thing to note is that it has a small dent and a few minor scratches on the exterior. These imperfections are hardly noticeable unless you're looking closely, and they don’t impact the laptop’s functionality in any way. For the price, it’s an amazing deal, and I’m very happy with my purchase! Highly recommend this if you're looking for an affordable Apple laptop without sacrificing performance.

Clean machine....looks brand new. Set up was easy and works as good as it looks. Battery life is excellent. Time will tell but for the $$ this is a great deal.

I ordered one and the entire two bottom rows of keys stuck, would click like there was sand under the keyboard, or wouldn’t pop back up so my sentence looked like this “Mmmmmmmmy nnnnew laptop Is unnnnnnnnusabbble” So I reached out to Amazon support who processed a replacement. Unfortunately the replacement was also unusable because the charging port would not hold the charger in it. So unless I wanted to sit there and hold the charger for 2 hours to charge it I had to return that one too. So I reached out to support again and processed that return. I ordered a third one hoping the third time would be the charm but alas, it was not. This one has a battery life of about 18 minutes from full charge until it’s dead. I understand these are refurbished but I have some major concerns about quality control at this point as it doesn’t seem like random bad luck that I’d get 3 laptops with major problems. Also adding that these are listed in excellent condition however there are also significant cosmetic issues as well. Scratches, deep dents, bent corners. Not something I’d look at and say “yeah this is in excellent condition”. I hope the seller takes more care in refurbishing these in the future because it feels like they are just out here taking in a computer, restoring it to factory settings and listing it for sale. No way they could do even a cursory check of these and not notice 20 sticky keys or the inability to charge a computer. This process has taken me about 3 weeks from placing my first order and has been a headache all around. I wouldn’t recommend these unless you are fully aware that you’ll need to dedicate time and money to making the computer you receive able to be used.

There’s literally one scratch on it. It works amazing. All I needed to was update the Mac book. The sound works, the charger and charger port works just fine. The battery last a decent amount of time. I’m so happy I could get a Mac book at an affordable price,, I’ve been looking to buy one forever.

This is a heck of a deal. This 2017 era system officially only supports (up to) Monterey (macOS 12) but with some major "tricks" I was able to upgrade all the way to the very latest (as of February 15, 2025) Sequoia macOS 15.3.1. The non-upgradable 8 GB RAM is actually enough and the CPU is good enough for a lot of things. However, with only a "128 GB" (actually 121 GB) non-upgradable SSD there is not normally enough space to upgrade. Trying hard enough I managed to upgrade this but it's probably not worth it for most people. WARNING! Major geek stuff comes next! The trick is to use the command line and Time Machine Utils (tmutils) to delete "snapshots" and free enough space for Sequoia to be installed. Summary (1) run tmutils listlocalsnapshots from Terminal with output redirected to a text file, (2) edit that file to have sudo tmutils deletelocalsnapshots <date of snapshot> on each line and save the file, (3) use the source command to run the commands in the file. This purges space that's not otherwise available and frees enough "disk" to do the upgrade. I then used Open Core Legacy Patcher 2.2.0 (OCLP) (free but contributions appreciated) to add the drivers for video and - critically Wi-Fi networking. My system offered the upgrade directly from Apple but I think that's because of an earlier attempt to use OLCP that was thwarted by lack of disk space enabled the upgrade once there was enough disk space. Sequoia was running after the upgrade but without working Wi-Fi and hence no network connection. I was able to find a USB ethernet adapter and get the system onto the network. Then I was able to download OCLP and run it to patch the operating system to work better. After a reboot, the video and Wi-Fi were working. I was able to add remote control both with TeamViewer Corporate and the free Chrome Remote Desktop (CRD). The attached photo is a screenshot from my main Windows 11 Pro system using CRD to access the MacBook Air and showing the "About This Mac" dialog.

Great laptop, wasn't sure if i would regret this purchase but i'm very happy with the speed and performance. Shipping was very quick, enjoying my new toy

I was nervous at first because a lot of the reviews were mixed but I ended up buying it away and I love it. I got excellent quality and the Mac has no scratches but a very minimal dent in the bottom right but other than that, the exterior is pretty good. The computer is just as advertised and it runs good and was able to update okay as well😊 if you’re thinking about getting this I say you should! It took a while to get here but it was worth the wait for sure!!

I was very hesitant to purchase a refurbished computer as I’ve never had luck but I am so glad that I did. I got this MacBook and when I opened the packaging it was just like opening a brand new Macbook, everything was in immaculate condition and the cycle count was 62, I was shocked. The only issue I had was that when I opened the MacBook for the first time there were literal crumbs inside all over the keyboard but other than that it’s fabulous and works fantastically. Will highly recommend this seller and their products to anyone asking.

Llegò en excelentes condiciones . Recomendable todo! Y llegò antes de tiempo

The battery needed servicing. Had to have it plugged in or would shut off after 30min. When removing my information, restoring to factory settings, a folder with big question mark showed up. Talked with apple support who was unable to restore it to factory settings. Apple support booked me with a certified apple repair place (London Drugs) and they told me there is a problem with the hard drive too! I would not recommend this apple refurbished seller. I love apple products but sadly would not buy from this seller again. Faulty product the was supposed to be checked and in good/excellent condition. This was in poor condition.

Y al parecer todo súper bien como nueva la batería también le dura como 3 días. Digo pues depende la guerra que le des pero si me gustó y la recomiendo.

J’avais la certitude et le stress de vivre avec les dommages, que je recevrais un produits avec du vecu et domages non souhaitable, ou 1 chance de devoir changer la batterie comme certain commente. Mais j’ai été très chanceux qu’il arrive en parfaite condition. Et pour les risques d’en acheter un usagé non échangeable ou remboursable j’ai commandé ici au black friday… a moins de 400$ taxes incluses… Recu en 2 jours et super emballé et intacte et pratiquement neuf… Je m’attendais à une surprise pour un 2017,,, reconditionné… mais je suis satisfait à 110% pour ma simple utilisation de ce produit quand meme de base pour un macbook de 7 ans !! Il est super pour ce que j’ai à faire avec.. jamais eu de pc apple et hyper habile sur windows,, mais j’aurais dû en essayer un depuis longtemps. Synchroniser avec mon iphone et apple watch,,, tout est super à utiliser. Doit encore m’adapter au fonction des habitudes de windows, mais tout est facilement inscrit sur google. Ex copier/coller avec ctr+c ou ctr+v ect Pas de clique de droite pour suprimer des documents etc. Et gestions des fichier dans nos documents etc.. bureau etc… mais un chefs d’oeuvre pour les personnes qui ont des iPhone. Toutes vos applications ou contenu comme vos photos, musique, notes, texto meme contact n’ayant pas d’iphone, appel entrant et sortant, mot de passe sur internet, tout est identiques et synchroniser ensemble par votre compte apple. Incroyable de tout avoir de l’un a l’autre en un clin-deuil… J’adore le fait que j’ai été chanceux d’avoir un produit en hyper bonne condition, et sans domage que j’aurais surement pas supporté le garder étant super attentionné à maintenir toutes choses en bonnes conditions et changer lorsque c’est endommagé. Mis une coquille protectrice a 25$ immédiatement et noir c’est vraiment beau ! Vous devriez vendre les articles légèrement endommagés moins cher et ceux qui sont pratiquement neuf encore au meilleur prix. Beaucoup serait plus satisfait et moins stresser dans l’attente du produits…
