The Best Rated Refurbished Computers

Buying a refurbished computer is a more affordable option for many consumers. There are advantages to purchasing a refurbished computer, including lower prices, factory-checked quality and discounted rates available for seniors, students and military personnel. Refurbished computers often have one-year warranties that can be extended for up to three years (depending on the company).

Refurbished computers are reviewed throughout the computer industry by notable magazines and organizations like "PC World," Gizmodo and Engadget. These refurbished units are rated on criteria including cost, accessories and options offered, refurbishment process and warranty longevity and inclusions.

According to PCWorld.com, the highest-rated refurbished computers are offered by Dell, IBM and Hewlett-Packard.
