Ive got a few brand new dell laptops for sale for similar money as the lenovo one you linked to, but being dell they're much better quality.
Ive sold a few to lads on here, albeit the more expensive ones.
Pm me if your interested and ill get you specs for the ones in your price range.

Anyone (i.e. computer manufacturer) who even considers things like CAUGHT: Lenovo crams unremovable crapware into Windows laptops – by hiding it in the BIOS or Lenovo shipped lappies with man-in-the-middle ad/mal/bloatware (let alone actually implements it) gets put on my "NEVER, EVER, EVER BUY THIS SLURPING CRAP" list forever! No IFs, no BUTs, no second chance - they BLEW IT!!

My company has issued me with 2 Lenovo laptops - T420 running windows 7 and T440P running windows 10. Personally I don't like either of them - they are fit for purpose business laptops, but I would not buy either of them for my own use.
I would carefully check what the spec means when it refers to click pad - my T440P has a strange touch pad in that you depress the whole rectangular touchpad to left click - the whole touchpad lowers by a couple of mm against a sprung resistance. There is a clumsy and unreliable method to achieve a right click, but it is a frustration rarely working as it should.

This isn't just the pre-installation of commercial crapware, this is overwriting Microsoft Windows files VIA THE HARDWARE (so a clean install from a CD won't get around it) and installing fake certificates that can compromise your HTTPS traffic (e.g. for Internet banking).
Not acidentally, but intentionally
