Even though they still made decent hardware, I don't recommend Lenovo laptops any more because of BIOS issues. Pretty much don't buy one unless there are multiple specific reasons you need an exact model.
Dell, HP, Acer (Sony and Toshiba Portege/Toughbook depending if they are old enough).
Wikipedia has several specific Lenovo entries:
Thinkpad - basic durable/reliable business model, usually better than average keyboard.
Thinkpad X1 [with possible additional Carbon label] - expensive/exotic case construction targeting light weight, not necessarily durable.
Yoga - touchscreen with hinge designed to allow multiple stable orientations.
IdeaPad - Commodity consumer grade, typically lowest cost model.
Flex - Lightweight and low power. Lenovo version of Dell mini 10. Equivalent performance of a 15 year old Intel based cell phone.
