I bought an Acer laptop in the Fall of 2008, it wasn't a month after i had bought it that it Blue Screened and began to have serious issues with freezing up. The following summer I sent it to Acer in BC and they had "fixed" it, and nothing changed for me, it still blue screened, adn froze constantly. Christmas of 2009 I took it to the retailer who found the problem but the cost would be out of my pocket, so i had them "fix" it too. Nothing has changed, if anything it has gotten worse. Never buying an Acer again.

OMG, don't buy an Acer laptop! I got screwed by their (lack of) support people. Bought an Aspire 8730, and found that it had a defective right shift key. Acer makes the customer pay to have it shipped to them for repair, so I paid UPS $50US and sent it to them. They sent it back to me saying that there was nothing wrong with it! I'm not a newbie. I know how a keyboard is supposed to work. Everyone I've ever let type on it has said the same thing: "What's wrong with the shift key?". The last thing I wanted to do was to pay to ship it right back to them and have absolutely no guarantee that they would actually fix it. So I hung on to it and tried to make do by buying an external keyboard. Now, the "x" key is failing too, so I called them. They said that since I didn't send it back within 60 days (or 90, or 30 depending on which rep I contacted), I would indeed have to pay to ship it to them again. I pointed out that there was no notification of such a time limitation, and was told that there is no notification because it's "a courtesy". I pointed out that first, they sold me a defective laptop, then their service was defective because they failed to detect the fault, and now they want me to pay to ship it again. Why should I do that? They didn't fix it the first time. Why should I believe that they would fix it this time? It's their fault that they didn't fix it the first time I shipped it, & it should be their responsibility to pay to ship it this time. So I've contacted a local television station's consumer advocate, and am beginning a search to find others who have had to put up with this type of "service". When I do, it'll be time to contact a lawyer about a class action lawsuit.

I have had an Acer Aspire for 3.5 years and it has been excellent. It was their first model that came with Intel dual-core proc. i have owned Dell, Acer, and Lenovo and I would rank the Acer up with the Dell and Lenovo a distance 3rd.

Hi, I bought an Acer 4736z laptop a couple of months ago. The performance and the looks were pretty good, but the "\" key popped out when i used the first time. It was broken on the arrival. When enquired about the repair after a week, the service center responded a physical damage and need to change by spending from my pocket. Then I spoke with the Sales manager who actually understood my situation and replaced my keyboard in warranty for free. It was one of the best customer care I ever had. This kinda activity would certainly gain trust with the customers

Bought 3 laptops in December 2007, Acer Aspire 9304wsmi, and 2 x Acer Aspire 7004wsmi, all 3 have failed big time, with estimated cost of over £800.00, I paid £1400.00 for the three. All all have loose screws, and bad connections inside, and the battery and charging controle are crap, all 3 have now been discarded. My next laptop will be a Toshiba.
