The warranty period isn't that long, and the opportunity to return for nebulous reasons is much shorter. I don't think you would encounter much in the way of "used a lot" with a refurb.

On the other hand, all my current, perfectly working gear has been "used a lot". My power amp was a demo unit when I bought it fifteen years ago. New tubes, perfect cosmetics. everything as new in the box, but no warranty as Sonic Frontiers was well out of business by the time the store decided to remove the unit from active demo use. It might have been seven years on the shelf by the time I acquired it, but then again, at about 40% of MSRP, I wasn't complaining.
