What are refurbished devices?

Refurbished devices from furbify (laptops, PCs, monitors) are not second-hand machines of uncertain origin from classifieds, nor are they cheap consumer models made of flimsy plastic. They originate from 1-3 year-old fleets of premium business-class series (HP, Dell, Lenovo, Fujitsu) from Western European banks and corporations, which replace them with brand-new ones at the end of their lease.

These machines were built for 8–24 hours of daily work and designed for an 8–10 year lifespan. With us, they still have at least 3–5 years of reliable operation ahead of them — often more than what you can realistically expect from cheap new consumer devices.

Why choose a refurbished premium device?

  • Save up to 75%: Get premium business quality at a fraction of the cost of new consumer PCs.
  • Maximum Reliability: New consumer laptops carry a 10–15% DOA (death on arrival) rate, whereas tested refurbished devices drop to around 1%.
  • Durable Build: Metal/carbon-fiber chassis, internal protective frame (rollcage), spill-resistant keyboards, and quiet, high-efficiency cooling systems.
  • Eco-Friendly Choice: Manufacturing a new PC consumes massive amounts of raw materials and energy — choosing refurbished gives you a green, value-packed alternative.

Our refurbishment process

  1. Dusting & Exterior Cleaning: Essential steps to ensure long-term durability and a like-new appearance.
  2. Cosmetic Renewal: Where necessary, we apply professional re-painting or premium protective wraps (e.g., brushed metal or carbon fiber).
  3. Custom Configuration: We boost performance with fast SSDs and extra RAM (customizable via our webshop configurator).
  4. Rigorous Testing: Ports, display, audio, stress tolerance, and battery life are thoroughly inspected.

Cosmetic grading:

Functionally, 100% of our devices work flawlessly. Based on exterior appearance, we categorize them into 3 condition grades:

  • Excellent: Virtually flawless inside and out (often former demo units or outlet items).
  • Very good: Well-maintained condition with minor signs of prior use.
  • Good: Minor surface scratches or cosmetic blemishes may be present on the chassis — offered at our lowest prices.

2-Year warranty & risk-free purchase

  • 2-Year Full Warranty
  • 6-Month Warranty on Batteries (guaranteed minimum 1-hour battery life)
  • 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee
  • We can localise the keyboards on our laptops using laser printing. If this is not technically possible, we will include keyboard stickers with your device free of charge.

Who are they ideal for?

Refurbished premium devices are perfect for everyday web browsing, office and administrative work, students, business/SMB use, or even heavy-duty mobile workstations (e.g., graphic design, video editing, CAD).

For playing the latest AAA gaming titles or tasks requiring ultra-long battery life, dedicated gaming or brand-new models are recommended — for everything else, refurbished business class offers the ultimate price-to-performance ratio.
