Question Are manufacturer refurbished desktops any good?

[Hemispheres]

I'm looking at a lenovo legion desktop with a 13900k, 32gb RAM, an Rtx 4080 and 1tb SSD for under $2100.

I'm wondering if I can trust the refurbished process or not.

Generally, yes. If Lenovo is selling, I would assume it carries a full warranty and support as well. Dell doe this, too. As do other OEMs.

Make sure you check on that warranty aspect. I purchased a factory refurbished laptop for Christmas and its warranty period was a flat 30 days. It was also half of retail price.

Good point. I have a refurbished Dell (sold via their outlet store) that has a 3 year, bumper to bumper, warranty. The devil is in the details.

Yes, I have purchased a few things off the Dell outlet over the years and have not been disappointed one time in what was received and the support behind it.
