I was a little nervous getting a refurbished macbook but i love it. it was the same price as the new neo macbook , so i did my research and i went with the M1 Pro . i purchased the “good” one, it literally looks brand new there’s no scratches, dents anywhere. shipping was so fast too (miami) , i purchased yesterday and already got it today by 2:30 pm. i’m really glad i trusted im in love with my new laptop. don’t think about it twice.

I LOVE ITTTTTT i originally ordered a 2022 macbook pro in ‘excellent’ condition off amazon. huge mistake. not only was it was scratched really bad, but the listing was incorrect. i received a macbook with half the storage than i ordered. i decided to try out backmarket for the first time instead and i will be telling everyone to come here for refurbished, used/older products. this macbook is in perfect condition. PERFECT. not a single scratch, the battery capacity is at 100% and the charging cycles when i received it was at 10. it was used and charged a total of 10 times. what an insane deal. i was shocked when i saw how perfect this thing is. i ordered it in excellent condition and it delivered just as that. it came in the original box with the original charger and charging brick. shipping was fast, placed the order on thursday and it delivered monday. if it wasn’t for the weekend it would of came in 2 days via fedex. customer service responded to be as soon as possible regarding shipping and they even followed up with me to make sure i received the product. if you’re on the fence about ordering from this website do it. you will not regret it.

Super Excellet. 😊 This was my very first time buying from this company, and I’ll admit I was a little skeptical at first about going the refurbished route. I was upgrading from my old mid-2014 13-inch MacBook Pro, so I decided to go with the 2021 16-inch MacBook Pro with the M1 Pro chip, 32GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. I wanted to be 100% sincere in my feedback, so I gave it a good month of heavy use before writing this. Honestly, the quality is outstanding! It arrived on time, well-packaged, and looked pristine—I found zero scratches on it. Even though it had 333 battery cycles, the battery health is great, and it performs like a brand-new machine. I am really enjoying this upgrade and truly appreciate the quality I received!

I ordered a 'premium' condition Macbook Pro, and the whole experience was indeed *premium*. The machine arrived on time and in good shape and turned out to be an Apple refurbished computer with only 7 cycles on the battery and an active AppleCare+ subscription. As far as I can tell it is effectively brand new and all wearable parts never used at all. I couldn't be happier!

For what I paid for, this device is outstanding. Arrived with 85% battery health which isn’t bad for a machine more than 4 years old. Additionally, the way Apple made these devices it feels worth way more than what I paid for it. I needed a replacement for my 13” m1 with a cracked screen that I could only use hooked up to an external monitor. This has been the perfect replacement without having to go brand new. I will probably continue the refurbished route because the value is undeniable, no complaints here.

Honestly I was a little hesitant ordering a referbished mac book pro off here. Only because I just had a not so good experience trying to order one through Amazon. I am more then pleased with my Mac book pro. It has a small amount of wear and tear but over all looks like brand new. Battery has 93% which is amazing for a 2021 computer. I found out that they replaced the screen on the computer and that must of been the reason for the refurbished. They used Apple parts for it. I would say order from here I had a great experience.

I will admit I was skeptic at first as this was my first order however it went smoothly. The entire process was seamless, simple and overall professional. I was kept up to date the entire time and the macbook arrived faster than I expected which was great! The MacBook itself is exactly as it described and works perfectly, I am using it now to write this. I would highly recommend Back Market as a great source for used tech that looks and feels like new without paying retail price tag. Not everything is priced competitively so its important to price check but since I got this Grade A MacBook Pro almost $800 off market rates or essentially for Grade C- Used Pricing or for parts yet it works like new. As a full time developer the higher RAM was required and overall very happy with the purchase.
