TOP FAVORABLE REVIEW
Nice laptop

Very clean. Can't tell it's a refurb. It really looks like a new laptop.

Really none.

I wanted to upgrade the RAM to 8GB so I ordered a 2x4GB DDR3 1333 kit. Turns out the laptop had 1x4GB DDR3 1333 in it so I could have ordered one stick and saved a few bucks.

Replaced the HD with a 256GB MX-100 SSD.

Machine is very quick. It boots fast and runs fast.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Overall good, but beware the hard drive

Good bang for the buck; plays HD video smoothly and has fast disk access.

Compatible with third-party extended batteries, a great investment in working time. (The T430 and later use a special "chipped" battery that prevents non-Lenovo batteries from working.)

Display is bright and crisp. Keyboard responsiveness is very good.

Fully compatible with any up-to-date Linux distribution, as well as Windows.

Has an eSATA (combined with USB) port; the later T430 has USB3 as an option, but no eSATA.

Has a Mini 1394/FireWire port, at least on the unit I received. This may vary between units.

The hard drive with the unit is an original from manufacture. Since the system is a refurbished (likely corporate-lease) unit, that means that the hard drive has had a lot of wear and may be close to end-of-life. In my case, the drive's SMART alerts were already buzzing and the drive died within days.

I highly recommend, as your first action, to build recovery media and reinstall to a new drive or SSD, or use an application such as Clonezilla to mirror the OS install to a new drive (requires external HD to USB enclosure or cable).

Bluetooth support may or may not be included (it's a special mini-PCIe card which was missing from my unit). It's possible to buy this module elsewhere (such as that well know auction site) to replace it at not much cost.

This is the 1366x768 resolution screen model, not 1600x900.
