Acer

We bought our Acer laptop 2 years ago and have already replaced 4 charger adaptors because the part that plugs into the laptop is too thin and keeps breaking. Wish we had never bought one.

This has been worst investment I made this labtop does not perform up to my standards this is bad for me I can barely get anything done terrible what a waste of money dissatisfied

I always liked ASUS and someone told me that Acer is comparable in quality and in price. Well, I can say the prices are usually lower, but the products are awful. I purchased two laptops from Acer in less than two years.

The first one was about six months old when the hard drive failed. I sent it in to fix. It was fine but then the laptop started to overheat like crazy out of nowhere and then shut off. Then, the hinge on the screen broke so the screen fell flat on the surface unless something was propped behind it. After a year, when the warranty was over, the overheating was shutting off the computer too consistently so it was impossible to use; winter or summer, didn't matter what the temperature was.

Replacing the first laptop, the second one worked perfectly fine, until exactly a year passed when the warranty expired, that the laptop froze frequently with audio looping itself. Only way to fix was to power it off manually. The screen's backlight also failed and started to show dim and dark spots everywhere on the screen. Next, the battery was unusable after one year and a couple of months. It didn't hold a single among of charge, so I had to keep the laptop plugged in all the time unless I paid for another battery.

The first laptop was just me purchasing, but the second laptop was just poor judgment. I never purchased anything from Acer after this. It was a horrible mess. Shortly after, I purchased an HP laptop around the same price range and it was fine for years. I can't judge for the rest of Acer's products, but laptops are a no-go for me.
