Build quality is good, but I have noticed in a few of these laptops that a slight light patch develops in the bottem right hand corner of the display - possibly a slight design flaw. Did have one incident where I managed to dislodge a key but managed to replace it. Found the integrated SD reader a useful feature, although I was dissapointed not to have the integrated wireless. A good little workhorse which has served several years of use without problem.
