Love this but concerned

Love this but concerned
I’m enjoying the laptop itself a lot. It does have some issues with it:I love the laptop and how it looks. The way the keyboard itself is along with all of the things you can plug into it, it’s DVD/CD player, especially since that’s something that is not in newer laptops, is all great to have. Even though I haven’t used any of these features, it’s awesome that it has all these.When left it in rest mode, it eats up the power within a few days if you don’t use it and leave it in that state. it goes into rest mode if you just close the laptop itself without shutting it off. When in rest mode, it takes lot of battery to keep it going and then eventually shuts off as it runs out of battery. Though I still don’t feel it keeps it’s charge too well in general even when it has been charging and then you unplug to use it.The screen is sensitive, so be sure not to place the laptop head first on its screen or else you may get a pixelated screen. I did that since that’s what I do with my old laptop to let it cool down which was fine for that one, but it’s not a good idea with this laptop so I stopped.It does warm up when working with it. I haven’t noticed it getting too hot but I haven’t really used it for hours and hours.The touchpad for the mouse sometimes isn’t very responsive and freezes.Although this laptop has many great features, some things aren’t in the best working order, which makes sense since it is refurbished but at the same time these things should’ve been fixed. If I find anything else that I like or that isn’t working, I’ll try to remember to write them here.Anyways, for a while I thought of returning this but now I’m thinking I’ll keep it even if it breaks down on me since the way it feels and looks is exactly what I’ve wanted for a laptop and I’m willing to learn to work with its mini problems and hope that it doesn’t die on me. Though if it did, I probably wouldn’t buy it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Was as expected - No surprises
Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2015
I received the t420 laptop and could not find the Windows product license key sticker on the bottom side. I emailed refurbsupport@metropc.com and got a very fast response that the sticker is under the battery.
Just needed to download and apply windows 7 updates from there.
The performance is very fast. The computer also boots up and shuts down very fast. (I have the same pc at work which runs a lot of applications at times, and it still does great with 8 GB ram).
There is a glittery black sticker covering full top surface of lid, but does not look bad with it. The sticker appears robust and has well aligned cutouts for the Lenovo/Thinkpad symbols as well as the battery/sleep indicator lights. I am not sure but I assume it gives it a new look if there might have been light scuffs.
In short: The sticker is fine with me : )
Everything else has the original look and is in very good condition. The lid hinges are nice and stiff like new. Have not gotten around to testing battery life yet, but just based on some other reviewes it seems like many people expect more than 2 hours on a full charge. All I can say is that with the same high capacity battery, my t420 at work will last about 1.5 hrs of use.

1.0 out of 5 stars A very risky purchase, laptops are not in good shape
Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2016
Recieved my t420 from klamp electronics fulfilled by Amazon, it didn't take me more than 10 seconds after it booted for me to figure out there were multiple tiny black spots on the screen indicating dead pixels. On top of that, anytime I scrolled down a webpage or had any kind of video playing, a certain section of the screen would continually flicker. Those are major problems for me considering I paid 280 dollars for a "certified refurbished" laptop that wasn't supposed to have problems. I also noticed a few days after the price went back up to 320, which is a complete rip off considering I got the same t420 laptop at a local refurbishing company near me for 140 DOLLARS LESS (180$), for a laptop that looks amazing, has no signs of wear and tear and a beautiful screen, unlike the one I received from klamp electronics which was visibly heavily used, had multiple areas showing signs of wear, keys that were bent, and an extremely defective screen. They offered to replace it after a few days of badgering them, but after I thought about it, I couldn't see why I would take another chance on a company that would send me this laptop in the first place. I ended up going on Craigslist and getting THE SAME LAPTOP, IN WAY BETTER SHAPE FOR 140$ LESS. I realize some people have received very nice laptops from klamp but do keep in mind, YOU MIGHT NOT GET A GOOD ONE!!! terrible experience, terrible price, terrible product.
