Understanding Cosmetic Grades
Reboot IT categorises certified refurbished desktops into cosmetic grades to provide transparency about each unit's appearance. Excellent grade desktops exhibit minimal signs of previous use with only very light scuffing or minor marks, maintaining an almost-new aesthetic free from deep scratches, cracks, paint chips, or broken components. Good grade desktops remain fully functional but show more visible signs of use, including light scratches on the case, minor dings, or small paint chips that do not impact performance or reliability. Both grades undergo identical rigorous testing and refurbishment processes, with the difference being purely cosmetic appearance.

"Excellent" Grade
Devices in this category appear like new, with very minor wear. Expect light or fine scratches on the screen that are shallow enough not to catch on a fingernail. The edge around the glass is virtually flawless, save for possible light scratching around the power port. The back plate may show light/fine scratches, including on the Apple logo, with any discoloration being minimal.
"Good" Grade
These devices are characterized by being fully tested and functional even if they have body scratches, minor paint chips, or a small hairline crack on the screen. Screens are free from dead pixels but may exhibit slight scratching from moderate use.
Refurbished Desktops, Laptops and Monitors
"Excellent" Grade - Laptops
Reserved for units that show barely any signs of previous use, these laptops may exhibit very minor scuffing or abrasions, associated only with minimal standard use. The keyboards show light wear, and importantly, the screens are pristine, free from any scratches, cracks, chips, dead pixels, dark spots, discoloration, or blemishes.
"Excellent" Grade - Desktops
