What are refurbished products?Refurbished products are pre-owned electronic devices that have been professionally assessed, repaired and tested in up to 40 steps by specialist refurbishers. All refurbished devices undergo strict quality controls and function like new devices - only much cheaper and more environmentally friendly. Refurbished devices cost less because they were once already on the market. They are refurbished by experts so that they can be resold, enacting the circular economy. This refurbishment is cheaper than manufacturing new products, which is reflected in the prices - they are up to 40% cheaper compared to buying new; whilst also being far more environmentally friendly.
