MacBook on Back Market, good or bad idea?

Hello everyone,

I want to buy a MacBook Pro for professional use and I came across the Back Market website. After reading several reviews (which, however, only concerned iPhones), I am a bit hesitant. The offers are tempting, but is the quality up to par?
Moreover, the reviews I’ve consulted mention issues with functionality (iPhone battery, etc.) and that if you want to repair it, they can’t help since it’s a malfunction from Apple.
14 days of use for a computer doesn't necessarily allow you to identify potential internal problems, which is why I’m skeptical about the idea of going for it..

    Hello

    Before purchasing anything from anyone, it's better to do some research...

    There are not only praises...

    On the other hand, here many are VERY happy:

    Who to believe?

    New products benefit from the Legal Compliance Guarantee for TWO years.. For second-hand (= refurbished), it's limited to SIX months.
