As part of Lenovo's lower-end line, this has a plastic case that doesn't feel as solid as some of their other machines. But it seems solid enough, boots quickly, has a nice screen. It's primarily being used for Office documents and to watch streaming video; both work well. No issues so far. For those who are interested, I set this up to dual-boot between Windows and Ubuntu, which is working great.

If you're looking for a small notebook, this Lenovo is an exceptional value. From the Dual Core processor to the large hard drive this computer is a class act. I could not find anything I did not like about it. Buy two--they're cheap!!

When it arrived from china it was defective, with broken screen, and they refused to accept it back. In a month, the keyboard came apart. Never had a single issue with my prior dell for 5 years. I wish I knew this junk is directly from china.
Honest reviews on Lenovo Edge14 05796AU 14-Inch Laptop
Don't be fooled, Lenovo has lost the IBM quality culture and builds very cheap (not to be confused with inexpensive) computers that you cannot find replacement parts for. I bought an edge 14 0578 model in April 2011 on sale for around $550. It started having a screen backlight problem in mid 2012 and the motherboard finally failed in November 2012. This forced me back to my 2005 IBM Thinkpad Z60t that with $100 in parts was usable again. . My motherboard replacement option was to spend $185 on a used motherboard with a 14 day warranty! For that price, I could nearly buy a replacement cheap computer with another one year warranty. I owned two very solid IBM's, but I will never buy another Lenovo because they obviously liked the IBM brand but have thoroughly ruined it with low quality build and zero parts support.
