What Buyers Say

Dell Tower Desktop ECT1250 2025, Core Ultra 7 265, 64GB, 4TB SSD, Black

65 out of 100 low confidence 8 reviews

The OptiPlex 7060 Micro receives mixed feedback. Many verified buyers praise its speed, compact size, and good value as a refurbished business-class machine, especially for casual use or server projects. However, a detailed negative review highlights serious refurbishment problems: missing parts, third-party USB WiFi, wrong BIOS, and poor cosmetic condition. The experience depends heavily on the specific seller and whether the buyer is technically savvy enough to resolve setup issues.

  • Compact micro form factor
  • Good value for a refurbished unit
  • Blazing fast SSD boot up
  • Great for casual use or server projects
Cons

  • Missing parts (drive tray, stand)
  • Poor cosmetic condition on some units
  • USB WiFi/BT dongles instead of internal card
  • Wrong BIOS and missing Dell support apps
