Great company
Great company.
Super Laptop supplied for an incredible price. And we're saving e-waste.
Good communication throughout.
Pretty Good
From order to delivery was quoted as 3-7 working days; this actually took nearly a month and I had to chase them as they did not keep me informed.
When the laptop arrived, it was smaller than I expected, which was disappointing as I wanted to use it for gaming and my eyesight isn't what it used to be!
However, the quality and performance of the laptop are superb and I have no complaints. I feel I've got a lot of laptop for the money I paid and so I would recommend.
Highly Recommend - Great Company!
Was a little sceptical at first as they were offering High Spec reconditioned Laptops at a fraction of the new cost, but I did my research and placed an order for a high spec laptop. I have to say I couldn't be happier! Delivered in days and it’s a great Laptop and a fantastic upgrade from my old one. It also looks good with the vinyl wrap to protect it and everything is working as it should and it was set up perfectly for me. I added a 3-year warranty for peace of mind for less than a cheap night out on the booze! Would highly recommend as they offer a first class service from ease of choosing my specification, to ordering to delivery. A+++++++
Great 1st laptop for my son, V. Impressed.
Trusted these guys to build my son’s first laptop. So pleased with the result. Great spec for price, will do exactly what we need and at a great price (inc 3 year warranty). Also love the reconditioning of the appearance which made it extra special as a present. Early days but other than the lack of a thousand bits of paper and fancy packaging there’s no way to know it’s not brand new. A little bit of recycling also helps my conscience.
Would 100% recommend.
Well worth the money.
From the very first time I purchased my laptop. Service been outstanding,was delayed but not gadget center fault but carrier. Arrived well packaged looks brand new works superfast.
Spot on
Ordered the spec I wanted and received exactly what I wanted at an affordable price. Would definitely use again.
The laptop is excellent so far and…
The laptop is excellent so far and works really well. It took a bit more time to come but that's because they are so busy. Communication on delivery was excellent. Very happy customer.
I cannot recommend Gadget Centre
I cannot recommend Gadget Centre. They advertise as 3-7 working days but in my case and I know others the laptop was not shipped until the 20th working day. I was slightly surprised by the size of the screen of the laptop but it will suffice. I fed back about the state of the charger itself but although ticketed did not get a response.
I had also ordered a rechargeable mouse but that did not arrive for an other week.. I could quite conveniently ordered one overnight from elsewhere. They did not offer a credit option instead.
Phone line was not available at least from when I placed my order in mid-November and general reply to emails was poor.
I am sorry but will not be using Gadget Centre again.
Delivered on time
Delivered on time, wifi fast same as ethernet, starts quickly looks good, paid £360 with 3 year warranty would have paid around £600 for similar laptop,would recommend.
Wonderful service, great kit
Had some trepidation at first but ordered a reconditioned laptop with hi-spec specifications.
Couldn't be happier! Delivered in days and now all my music files are safely stored and backed up!
3 year warranty too for less than the price of a Nando's!
Awful service
This review is for my latest order. From placing the order, it took over 5 weeks of me contacting and chasing to finally get the laptop delivered. First impressions of the laptop looked promising and it fired up as expected. Then the interesting part, windows then starred stating it could not carry out updates due to processor not being supported. A 7th Gen processor was installed and these are not supported for Windows 11. On contacting Gadget Centre I got standard responses trying to fob me off. I am aware you can use 3rd party software etc to get round this but when buying a product I would either expect this to be advertised or I expect a laptop that works and can install required updates. Overall not a great experience receiving an older product than my previous order a few years before.
I'm very pleased with my laptop
I'm very pleased with my laptop, the things a flying machine compared with my old one, it looks new, it works like new, it costs much less then new. I arrived nearly a month after I ordered it, so maybe take long delivery into account when ordering.
Well Happy
Had been looking at reviews for Gadget Centre for several months after the advert kept catching my eye on Facebook. Already had a Asus 17in which was to slow and heavy for photo editing.
Decided after about 6months to take the plunge, and filled in the forms, not knowing what to expect as always walked into major stores previously and bought what was given to me!
Upon payment, received receipt by email and brief description of specs and the process.
The nail biting part was waiting to hear anything, nothing for 2 weeks, then an email about delivery.
Laptop was very carefully packaged and delivered.
After been opened and setup it has been the fastest and quietest laptop i`ve ever had and photo editing and anything else is ten times faster. Very Very Happy and well worth the money.
Very pleased with the laptop so far
Very pleased with the laptop so far. Excellent value and great condition for a refurbed unit.
Configuring and ordering is very straightforward.
There was a delay due to supply of parts, however this was explained and wouldn't detract from the 5 star review. Thanks!
Really is an excellent product
Really is an excellent product. Delighted that my refurbished Dell has arrived. Easy to set up.
Great company and I highly recommend them.
Came really well packaged. 3 year warranty is reassuring.

I have waited 3 yrs to leave a review but here it is. I purchased my refurb laptop Nov '22 and its still going really well so thank you very much guys.
I will come back to you for the next one.
Brilliant concept and brilliant service
Love the concept of recycling old laptops and being able to "build" one to meet my needs. Found it very straightforward to order and am so pleased with my reconditioned Dell laptop! It's superfast and is just what I wanted! Highly recommend this great little company.....well done guys!🙂
Very happy
Great customer service and item was as described when it arrived. Well worth the cost and my new go to guys in the future
Amazing value
Needed a new laptop and even during the sales a decent spec is pretty costly. Im a sceptic by nature and this deal seemed way too good. So glad I took the risk. A custom built laptop at high spec for an amazing price. OK it took 3 weeks to get to me but well worth the wait. Totally happy with what I've got and great service too.
