This refurbished Lenovo chromebook is a real bargain.
Its specifications exceed the qualifications for a
Chromebook Plus in that it has 256GB of storage in
a NVMe m.2 ssd. Its processor is only one generation
younger than the 13th generation Intel Core i3 in the
most current Lenovo version of this laptop. The only
thing that might give one pause is that this laptop is
"Refurbished" -- I found that this should not stop you
from grabbing one of these while they are still available!
My laptop arrived in a plain brown box. The packing of
the laptop and its power supply was the best I have
ever seen (see photo)! The chromebook and its power
supply were surrounded by the best bubblewrap I have
ever seen. There was no movement possible in the box,
and the dense bubble wrap provided extraordinary
protection on all sides.
The power supply is a Lenovo 45W brick with a usb-c cord about 5.5 feet long. It looks brand new. The laptop itself also looks brand new. I found no scratches or blemishes anywhere on the body. I provide many photos
to help illustrate this.
The display is excellent, as is the keyboard and touchpad.
The chromebook has an ample array of ports, with none
of them showing any evidence of wear (see photos).
Upon opening the laptop the first screen displayed was
one showing "chromebook plus". The only reason this
does not appear on the lid of the laptop is because
this laptop was made a little before this classification
was created.
I looked at the diagnostics for the battery and discovered
that the battery has seen essentially no use. The health of
the battery is at 100%, and the battery has been through
only 1 charging cycle!
One of the reasons I purchased this chromebook was to
make use of the embedded linux in it. I checked under
"Developers" and verified that this chromebook has the
"Linux development environment".
I am very impressed with my "new" Chromebook Plus,
which I obtained at about half the cost of the slightly
newer version. If you too are interested in getting a
Chromebook Plus, I highly recommend this unit.
However, don't wait too long -- I suspect this will sell
out in the near future!

I purchased the blue version of this sleeve for my new Lenovo Tab P12. This tablet has a display that is a 12.7" diagonal. I also have the tablet in a cover that is dark green and a great fit. The tablet in its cover fits perfectly into this sleeve. The memory foam of the sleeve provides excellent protection for this very large tablet!

I purchased this mouse to use with my new 14" hp pavilion 2 in 1 laptop. I wanted a mouse to carry around with me as I went from place to place. This mouse does that job nicely. It is compact, yet fits my hand comfortably. It pairs instantly with my laptop. It glides smoothly over most surfaces. There is a button on the bottom to turn off the mouse when not in use, and thereby conserve battery power. It looks premium. It is a good buy.

I purchased this for my new HP Pavilion 2-in-1 14" laptop.
It fits nicely inside, with a little bit of clearance on the sides.
It is nicely cushioned inside and provides good protection. The outside pocket is great for small items, like usb cables and usb flash drives.
It is a great choice, and a great buy at its clearance price!

This is an excellent horror film, done Italian style. The acting is great. Telly Savalas as the Devil is very good. Elke Sommer as the main character is great. If you have never seen it before, there are many plot twists. You will want to watch it several times to follow all of them. This is a film you will want to include in your collection of classic horror films. Highly recommended!

I bought this phone set because of its features and its classy looks - and it has not disappointed! It looks very nice in my home, and it takes up less space than my old set. It comes with a very big and thorough user's manual that is well written. The buttons and screen are very easy to read. Its clock has been spot on since I set it over a month ago. It fits my hand very well. This is an excellent buy!

This humidifier is very well designed and very well engineered. It also looks much nicer than the majority of humidifiers. It is easy to fill. It is very quiet, although it does make an occasional "glub-glub" sound when it puts water from the tank into the lower tray. It has a number of features other humidifiers do not have. There is a knob that allows you to fine tune the rate at which vapor is dispensed. There is a switch that allows you to have the device shut down after 1, 2, 4, or 8 hours. The device automatically shuts down when it runs out of water. It has a clever gauge on the front that shows the level of water in the tank - see the attached photo. It is best viewed from above at an angle. There is a white light at the bottom of the column that is pointed up. The light scatters at the surface of the water, showing the level.
The light gets brighter as the water level lowers. In the photo the tank is about a third full, as indicated by the upper white dot. This is a great buy.

Can you listen to tapes in the stereo?

I have played stereo cassette tapes in this boombox, and can verify that you get true stereo sound out of the boombox from them. The same is true when tuned in to fm stereo stations, and when playing stereo mp3 files from a usb stick. An added note - the mp3 files obtained from copying stereo cassette tapes using this boombox are also true stereo.

With the appropriate cable or cable adapter you can plug the output from your amp directly to the AUX Input on the side of the boombox. You can then record to the cassette recorder. There are no controls on the boombox to provide fade-in fade-out, however.

How many hours of airplay does the battery charge last? Does it come with AC/DC adaptor for standard wall plugs? Thank you

The boombox comes with an ac cord to plug it into a wall socket. You use it to charge the built-in internal rechargeable battery. The hours of airplay you get on a full charge will depend on how it is being used: the loudness setting for the speakers, whether you are using bluetooth, whether you are playing or recording with the cassette player/recorder. With the speakers set to moderate volume for a small room and playing the radio I have run the radio for 10 hours with no problem.

Can you record on cassette tapes when playing from Bluetooth.

Yes you can. You can stream in from a bluetooth connected device, such as a smart phone or a tablet, and record to a cassette in the boombox (or a usb stick, or a micro sd card in the boombox). As noted in a previous answer, you need to adjust the volume of the external device to get a good recording.

will the bluetooth allow you to use auxiliary / external bluetooth speakers?

No. Bluetooth on this device is only for input. You can however use the Headphone port on the boombox to wire it to an external speaker. Please note that the AUX port on this boombox is only for input.
