I’d be looking at CEX as it it’s a physical shop so if anything goes wrong it’s easier to sort out. Also you get a 2 year warranty from them.As she likes Apple an M1 MacBook Air in Good condition can be had for £550.These really are excellent laptops, I know it’s over budget but if you’ve got any old tech you can trade in for vouchers to get it nearer your budget.0
