Framework 13

I recently ordered one and had some issues with it so I returned it. Would prefer one from another brand as I did not have a good experience with Framework.

Can I ask what issues you had? I have one on order.

So I ordered the DIY edition and when it arrived the screw to input the SSD was stripped and wouldnโ€™t budge. I emailed their support and they said they would replace the motherboard, and when that arrived it had the exact same stripped screw. I told them about it and they said to ship to their repair center so I did. I didnt receive further details about it for a week so I just decided to refund because it had already been more than a month since i first got it. Of course I couldโ€™ve waited a few more weeks for it but I urgently need a laptop now and donโ€™t think I could have waited that long.
