Looking for an Imac and this is one of the cheapest (new) at the moment. It is an older model and not a 4K model. But still nice.
This stunning all-in-one iMac features a beautiful 21.5-inch widescreen display, fourth generation Intel Core processor and Intel HD 5000 graphics. And it comes as standard with 8GB memory, a 500GB hard drive and advanced, high-speed connections, including two Thunderbolt ports, four USB 3 ports and 802.11ac Wi-Fi. All in an impossibly thin brushed aluminium enclosure.

If that's one of those retro spinning HD things I'd avoid it like the plague. Horrible to have a nice machine like that crippled by such a noticeable bottleneck.
Find a fusion drive version. No point throwing cash around.

I agree it's a ridiculous bottleneck but I'm not impressed by the Fusion drives in the latest iMacs either.

Possible to upgrade this one? Spinning Disks aren't great....

I was going to heat until I saw the processor. God no, my 2006 PC was running a better processor than this.

I'd be more worried about the Intel hd 5000 and processor being more "retro" in these models. However I just realised I paid more for an iPad pro at John Lewis. At least it has 3 years warranty but why do I feel it wasn't the best deal?

Depends which model iPad pro and how much you paid for it.
