You can get some nice deals, if anything you can always return it. I get refurbished stuff from Amazon warehouse all the time. Recently I got 1500$ dollar headphones for $1100 which smelled and looked brand new.

I only buy items that were refurbished by the original company. There are some items that are "refurbished" by a second party company which I avoid.

I've been considering an LG smart watch and found one for a decent price on Amazon but it has been refurbished. Also, I intend to upgrade the RAM in my laptop. I found some great deals for that too. Thanks!

My TV, coffee maker, Dyson vac, computer monitor and a lot of my tools are refurbished and I have never had a problem. I saved a ton of money.

My monitor was refurbished, I had a single dead pixel. So far so good! Besides that.
