66% of the reviews on Amazon.com give this product a positive rating.

Finally, take a look at this ThinkPad SL410 battery design. We find it particularly easy to remove the battery; unlike some notebooks, it may take a big effort to remove battery. Buckle is set above the battery itself, using a single buckle in the...

Light wieght solid thinkpad construction ; Screen is way ahead of it's time in brightness and contrast ratio. Battery life is good

First batch I ordered were scratched and dinged up like they were from neighborhood pawn shop. New egg replaced them with grade A units. Whole process took 17 days and was frustrating, but now they are shinning in a repair shop environment working all...

Love this laptop. Great ThinkPad keybaord. Eraserhead or "TouchPoint" is so useful because you don't have to keep swiping your finger to move across page. The touchpad is one of the best I have used as well. Upgrading to 8 GB Ram is around $50. Solid...

Not an i3 or i5 but runs cool and fast

This is a great laptop for the price, this would be a great laptop even if it cost much more. Durable build, nice quality feel to keyboard, buttons, screen hinges. I love the trackpad, mousepad area. Not too much bloatware and the ThinkVantage...

Could weigh a touch less. Would like to have a little more resolution, but this may be common for all 14" screens. Might have rather had a non-glossy screen, but it does look nice in all but high glare situations. Case does show fingerprints. ...

I bought this laptop 11 months ago now, just after i started my new job. I use this laptop for both work and personal use and I love it. Core 2 Duo @ 2.2Ghz, 4gb 1066mhz ram after adding a kingston 2gb, the hard drive is slower than i want because i...

5400 rpm hard drive - not really a con for the price but 7200 rpm is my standard because I game

Traditional thinkpad build quality, steel wide set hinges, solid keyboard, real hard buttons for all of your normal functions. Track pad is solid to the touch and is set correctly so that you don't accidentally touch it while typing. Very little bloat...

back of lcd is plastic not metal, not really a con but I am use to x&t series original IBM think pads

Core 2 DUO, bright screen, battery life, superior cooling (very quiet), rugged design, two-prong charger, good video acceleration, perfect size

LCD noise with brightness between 4-10 when charging (background noise), but brightness 0-3 is sufficient for most use, 11-15 levels are too bright. It also wouldn't hurt to purchase another gig of RAM for $30

Amazing Keyboard, Beauty of a screen, Solid design, COST(+4 eggs) ; Closer to original thinkpad designs than the ideapad line.(+1)

Too much crapware and not enough ram(2G) in my opinion. (- 1) ; The screen protection cage(roll cage) is plastice not magnesium, no deduction due to price as this is not a T-series

Very sturdy. Fast. Windows 7 pro. quality is nothing less then what you would expect from lenovo/IBM. If you need an affordable business class laptop then look no further. Great laptop overall

The touch pad can be a little awkward at times but it does the job. and 5400 rpm hard drive out of the box. Ehhh not really cons but yea
