    Missing parts and miserable customer service
    There was a part missing to my monitor and so I contacted them right away. They did not respond or resolve the issue. They left me with a monitor that won't sit up and because of the missing part and their customer service is horrible. I'd give them less than one star if I could. They basically took my money and ran.

    I ran into the activation issue but found a fix
    A lot of reviews here mention the windows 10 activation issue I had also it kept saying my product key was invalid but then I got a notification about a free windows 11 update and after installing the update my windows os was fully activated so it seems you will need to update before trying to activate windows. Overall it's a basic computer but it's great for casual usage definitely not a gaming machine it's basically a laptop in a desktop case.

    Great Machine
    Of course, I have not this had unit for a long time, but I will say that from ordering, shipping, setup, support and use. This ACER and this PC package has been great. I have had no problems with anything I have done, although WIN 11, takes a little adjustment. This system has been money well spent

    Perfect for my needs.
    I purchased this computer on 25th of August of this year. Wanted to give it a little time before I made a review. It's a great computer for the money and my basic needs of computing. Have not had any issues so far. I read many reviews, most of which were good. A few negative reviews made me hesitate. Namely the ones claiming that it did not come with a working Windows 10. Didn't have that issue. One thing that I do want to point out is that the processor is not the one listed. Didn't return it because it suited my needs but for anyone that would need the advertised processor speed be aware. Listed was a 4.4GHz, the one that was sold to me only has a 3.7GHz. I saw a review from 4-28-22. In that review the writer listed that his was 2.6GHz. The seller responded by listing a different processor than what's advertised. Because of this is the reason I'm only giving it 4 stars. Overall, it's a great computer.

    Acer is Ace
    Buy Acer I've never had any issues with them. Great packaging unboxed and set up 20 min. Updates less than 15 min ready to work. That's Acer. Monitor looks great I may need a riser but no complaints on non adjustable height it does tilt. Mouse n keyboard really not needed but will keep for back up. Don't buy the refurbs or buyer beware hit or miss tried and lost on one 2 days ago too bad I like the idea and have purchased refurbished pcs from local stores with no issues before as I typically do buy new computers every 2 years.

    Windows 10 not activated
    I ordered 2 desktops but, those are not activated Windows 10. Even I can't reach them by their contact number. Very inconvenient.

    Excellent computer!
    I received my computer, setup went smooth… no issues… only flaw is that it didn't come with any speakers! But that's okay!, You can always purchase some, or just use some headphones! I didn't have no product key or activation issues! Deffo recommend!

    The fact that MS is charging a expensive price to
    So far I am enjoying my Aspire XC Desktop - XC-830-UW91, however, the only complaint that I have that this computer did not come with MS Word 365. I am on a fixed income and money does not come easy with me. I am going to have to sacrifice in order to get it very soon.

    NOT A GAMING PC!
    This pc works for everyday things but not for gaming. Do NOT buy for that purpose. It would be a complete waste of time. For the price, it's a reasonable pc. Buy this if you want to use it for emails, YouTube and other things.

    Nice computer for the money.
    This computer doesn't weigh much but is a great deal for the money. The negative reviews frequently mention the lack of a licensed Windows copy. The only problem I had was finding the license but eventually it was installed during setup. I usually buy refurbished computers with the Intel 5 processor with 8 GB of RAM. Was a little worried about the 4 GB in this system but it works just fine. The UHD graphics are good and the SSD is fast. Windows 11 is also available for free here. Bottom line: great low priced computer that works fine for basic home use.

    Came on Estimate date.
    Does not weight much. Graphics are good, but there is better out there. In better words its like 1080 P , rather than a 4K. But still love it!

    OK For The Cost.
    Like some others have reported the "Windows" OS license key was invalid. On the second call to Acer concerning this problem I was guided through the process of installing a valid license key. After which no further problems. It runs OK, but I am upgrading the RAM to 8GB. That is the least expensive way to improve a computers performance. To anyone else who would care to do this be advised there is only one RAM slot. So you would have to purchase a 8GB module. Upon inspecting the inner components this is actually a laptop in a desktop case.

    Works well for me
    It's a compact desktop which means it doesn't have to go on the floor. There are plenty of jacks in the rear, and so far, I am thoroughly pleased with it. My only complaint is that the pre-installed Norton has been pestering me all week for money. But that would occur on just about any computer.

    Windows not activated for some reason but...
    Same issue with windows not being activated. I've never seen a brand new computer and windows not working but I called acer customer service and they activated it with a few instructions. Not much memory on SSD but you can install another M.2 SSD really cheap. I decided to just plug a western digital external hard drive 4 terabytes. I uninstalled all the crap apps that I don't use or need to make a bit more room on the SSD. 4GB of RAM really easily accessible and you can just install an additional 4GB from crucial for just $20 bucks to make it even faster, so far so good

    Great computer but no card reader.
    It's a lot better than the refurbished one I just threw away. Very happy with Acer. One problem. Deceiving picture shows a slot for a Card Reader. No card reader on product. Everything else is fine. Customers must be informed that they have to download a Media Player so DVD's will work. Otherwise, there will be many returns. Other than that and no card reader, I'm loving it!

    No accountability
    Great looking unit, and that's the best I can say about it. Easy set up, just don't try to use it. Bought and returned the next day. It seems the "digital license" was invalid. So I wasn't able to activate Windows. Never again will I purchase another tower assembled by this company. Call customer service and they blame Microsoft. They offered to have me mail it to them and they would return it a week later. You should have properly assembled it to begin with.
