Works great
5 stars but i got stuck on a screen when it said I had to update my payment information in Amazon. Had to restart the thing to move forward. Could be designed better. Plus it is slow to turn on.

Easy
A gift for my 90 year old grandmother. She never picked up a book again. It was so easy for her to use.

Nice kindle!
This is my third kindle and it works great. I like the options for warmth and brightness. It hold a great charge. I can use it for weeks without needing a recharge. Also didn’t use it for a month and it was still at 98% charge. Great little reader. It’s a bit slippery. So consider getting a cover for it to have something to hold and protect the screen. I bought the matching kindle branded cover and it looks great.

very useful with all necessary features
I always read before going to sleep, which until now has meant a light of some sort which keeps my wife from getting to sleep. I don't own a tablet and I don't like reading on a phone. Too small of a screen for my taste, and it's still too bright for her (light sleeper). My old Kindle had no backlight. It was so old it would no longer even download new books, so I had at least a dozen I couldn't even access. So, time for an upgrade. This has met all my needs.- Screen is lit but adjustable brightness- warm light option- darkmode to further reduce what little glare might exist and helps aged eyes see better- navigates by touchscreen instead of buttons that can wear out- contrary to prior reviews, you can categorize titles into lists for easier locating- bluetooth capability for listening if desiredLots of battery life, super fast set up that's only a few basic clicks. Get a decent case and it's a simple, straightforward means of accessing as many titles as you wish when and wherever. The refurbished model saved a few bucks and was as good as new for me. Very happy with this purchase.

Refurbished kindles are GREAT
A wonderful kindle refurbished product! A bit sluggish, like regular kindles. Looking forward to those fixes in future editions! For this reason: FOUR STARS, and I do recommend refurbished product. I am writing this review on April 29, 2025 after owning this product for quite a few months now. So far, no issues on my refurbished kindle other than the typical slug that kindles are known to have. If you are considering a refurbished kindle, I recommend you go for it!

Easy to read
Why did I wait so long to get one of these? If you like to read this thing is it. Not good for looking at pictures in books but excellent for reading.

Buy this!
This is the best purchase I’ve made in a long time. The size is perfect- I can easily fit in my purse. I’ve had it over a year now and have not had any problems with any of the buttons or touchscreen. I LOVE that it has a dictionary to use while reading. I just tap and hold on a word and can look at the definition of a word instead of flipping to my phone for Google so I can understand a word. I use this every single day!! Make sure to buy a quality case/cover otherwise it will get little dents on the corners if you drop it. Have not used the audiobook option yet but will update my review if I try in the future! I also LOVE that this is a used product. It arrived looking basically brand new.
