Acer Chromebook - This is a very nice Chromebook. My husband really likes it

JULIEGOct 16, 2026 · Verified purchase ★★★★★

Functional device that met my needs - As the owner of a small business, having a durable device for my staff to use is essential. This Acer, like the one that came before it, is definitely that. The case is solid, it travels well, and the screen is large enough for my team to use for their required work. Most of their work is documentation on a web based platform, and this laptop is perfect for that.

Great Display - I love how big this monitor is and still being able to carry around in my backpack.

RonHOct 11, 2026 · Verified purchase ★★☆☆☆
