Oh god no, ideapads. My dad has one and the metal parts hardly fit together after a year, the key travel is 1mm and the touchpad is practically useless.

I like the key travel though. The touchpad does get fucked quite easily after some usage so I decided to just use keyboard-only. I've been using mine for 4 years now.

If I had to use it daily, I would kill myself, but if you're fine with it, enjoy it. Of course it can't beat thinkpads and my Dell latitude 5290 (the new latitudes are pretty much the same (edit:as the ideapad) and part whitelist on tp-s).
