These should be compared to anything with a similar price tag. Especially other refurbs available on ebay et al. As far as new goes, 7520U laptops still appear on SD at $270 and up.
Desktops have all been great because they are generally not handled. Laptop experiences have been a total gamble depending on who owned them (company, department, individual). We've had failures - some on-arrival, some several months later.
The Latitude 5410 and 5411 have been the WORST deliverables. These GRADE-A purchases turned out to be GRADE-B in appearance (and that's being kind). There are issues with the 5410 and 5411 (search Dell communities, Dell support, Reddit, etc.).
The 5411 should have been recalled. Mass shipments were returned to Dell from I.T. departments because of the faulty design - they stuck a hot-running chip in a previous bad venting design. Dell's "solution" to the overheating is to dramatically scale down the processor's speed, so you're not going to get anywhere near the processor speed that you think you're going to be getting.
Run from the 5410/5411 but some have had exceptions, especially from the FedEx Recycling "promoters".
Honestly I'd not give Dell money and shop somewhere else in the case of laptops.
Just wanted to provide my experience as many people post stories of getting trashed laptops that don't match up with the refurbishment grade.

EDIT: I ordered mine almost 2 weeks ago and it looks like the 5411 coupon expired. They only have the 5410 coupon code now.

The 5XXX- i5-10th gen- B grade was almost new. No scratches, No issues whatsoever.
Got it for around 250
The 7xxx -i7 10th gen- Grade A.. Showed low battery life (older post had the details on how to check that) and speaker had sound issues. And a sticker on the front to hide caches (which I was ok with). Got it for around 200.
Customer support it top notch. Provided many options. I chose to get new battery, and speakers. i replaced them my self.
Processor cooling pad/ fan had a lot of dust accumulation. I cleaned it. That stopped the fan noise. Changed the cooling paste as well. So that might have helped. After this it as been working perfectly. I am very happy with the purchase. It has touch screen, back lit keyboard and everything.
I would highly recommend getting a Dell refurbished if you get a good deal. Juat make sure you check everything as soon as you get the laptop and raise a ticket in case if there is an issue. Also be available at home, when they are coming out for the delivery.

Its cheap for a reason.
These are actually certified used (under 80% battery health/damage parts/high mileage ) , some in new like condition (over 95% battery, extremely low mileage).
The Grades from Dell Official Outlets is much better starting at $600 for latitude.
My 5420 just died out of nowhere.
