After buying another HP to replace a defunct one and having it arrive with multiple software and hardware issues out of the box (it was returned after three days,) I decided to take another look at the Sony machines.  This Vaio caught my eye and, after diligent research, I made the purchase.

I should have bought this machine first.

From a sheer looks point-of-view, it's a beautiful piece of machinery.  When you turn it on, the functions and internal workings match that external view.

Without going into useless nuts & bolts, let me just say that I couldn't be happier with this laptop after a week's worth of putting it through as many paces as I could.

Five stars aren't enough, really.

Nice looking, well constructed and works like a new model.

Beautiful machine.  Search online however, you can find it elsewhere for $2,500 less.  Yes, you read that right.  Less than half the price.

This appliance is the star in a home filled with gadgets and appliances. I am still impressed by the power, speed, and silence of the machine. I've now purchased all the extra discs. I hadn't noticed until now that it's a Saeco machine. Best espresso machine ever. (Which I have). So I shouldn't have been surprised. These discs all produce extrusions that are exactly what the picture looks like. Bonus.

The Machine is not fully assembled. No assembly instructions included. Found other suppliers selling it fully assembled and tested for less. I believe it will be a good operating machine when I get it assembled. All the pictures show it fully assembled except the last one, I guess you have to be careful to view them all.

Very nice machine. I did have to get used to the very touchy open and close choice on the round button that is on the top the machine. In a dimly lit room this is hard to see.

I'm still getting used to Windows 8, but I'm enjoying this computer very much. The images are crisp and clear, the camera works well. The only thing I was surprised at was that the edges of the computer are kind of "sharp." The bottom of the display has a corner that keeps catching on my blankets and sofa (since I sit on the sofa to do most of my work). All my previous computers had had rounded edges, so it surprised me that this one was so - stark? I don't think that's the exact word I wanted, but I think you get the idea.

Great machine! Well built, looks very expensive too.. I have a family of 6 and it keeps up with our demands. Arrived ahead of time and well packaged for shipment.. Would recommend.

Looks like box had been opened. Machine looks untouched, but worthy of a side-eye

Only thing I would note is that its a small machine.  Also the all black version looks less good than ones with two colours

This review is based on the fact that this is a relatively inexpensive machine, and as such, I would not expect the same performance from a $250 unit. The machine looks really nice, with the little filigree designs on the side. it snaps securely to the stand, which was not terribly complicated to build. It's easy to cart around , and has lots of storage inside for your sugars and whatnot. The machine itself is mostly quiet if on a counter, but quite a bit louder if on the cart itself. Obviously not as stable as a solid surface. The cotton candy takes longer than desired to floss... but again, it's an inexpensive unit. It's great if you've got a small group of people to cook for. One batch of sugar can make a full sized beautiful ball of cotton candy. You'll get great results... but it just takes longer to get them. If you want something that flosses more and more quickly, you'll end up sending 3x as much.

The machine is quiet and effective. It works quietly as well.  Very reasonable price, and the design is attractive too.

Great machine so far. Delivery was unbelievably fast as I wasn't expecting it for a week but had it in two days. The good? Easy to assemble using common sense. The bad? No manual or assembly instructions. I have a mechanical background so no issues however with a machine this big and able to chew up large things, slinging steel blades around and throwing chunks of debrey at high speed, it seems the liability risk is high not providing assembly instructions, warnings, torque values or maintenance schedules. I plan on following the domestic high price unit maintenance this one appears to be a clone/copycat of.
I would like to have a parts breakdown so I can order spare blades, bearings and for replacement of anything that might break someday. Hoping the blades are the same as the other unit and the local bearing shops can just match by dimensions. As for the rest, guess fabrication might be required someday?
Oh, I'm running it on a 58 HP Deere 2020 and it has chewed up everything I have thrown at it no problem so far. 4" hardwood oak, walnut,  5" elm, Ash, 6" cedars. It doesn't like old dry hedge (Osage orange) much though so I keep it small. Not really an issue since I only grind the really crooked stuff and make fence posts out of the rest.

I recently purchased this machine primarily for my 10 year daughter and we both like it very much. It is a compact All-In-One design that maximizes screen space with minimum space for the processor, motherboard, hard drive, etc behind the screen. You can kind of think of it as a laptop PC with a big screen on a stand. I really like the case design with back trim around the LCD screen and clear plastic frame/feet around this. It makes the screen look kind of like it is floating in air. Much more pleasing to the eye than some of the all black All-In-One PC's from other manufacturers.

My daughter loves the touch screen! It fits perfectly on her desk even though she has a hutch shelf above it.

The performance is more than adequate for everyday use, except for heavy duty gaming. Below are the Windows Experience Index numbers (from Windows 7 Home Premium):

Processor: 5.6
Memory: 5.5
Graphics: 4.8
Gaming Graphics: 5.4
Primary Hard Disk: 5.9

Keen observers will note that these numbers are much better than a typical netbook or nettop machine. It actually uses a Pentium Dual Core T4500 processor and a nice nVidia Ion 9300 graphics chip. The machine is also very quiet.

We've enjoyed it for a couple of months now and haven't had any problems. I would recommend it to anyone considering an All-In-One desktop.
