I agree with you, I just ordered this laptop from Amazon and since I read your reviews I think I made a mistake in purchasing this best Chromebook that has ever been invented. Your Storage problems is spot on, I would never insert a huge USB drive to increase the storage into Terabytes. If I did that then it would be better than any windows or Mac. So thank you for informing me not to buy this although I already did because of the price and specs are far superior to any other laptop in the world.
Hi Erin! I don’t really like this laptop and Tablet type and the os is not the best except if you’re a student would be fine. Thanks for reviewing it. Cheers! ☕️☕️
I think there was a way to put it in Developer Mode and use SeaBIOS to install a PC OS, but if going that route may as well just install Linux. One of the reasons Chromebooks are fast is they're build on Linux, one of the reasons they're secure is they default to a mode that doesn't make the user all powerful. Windows is known for being unstable, buggy, and prone to getting viruses, which is against the concepts that make Chromebooks affordable and reasonably pleasant to use.

Thanks for sharing your experience, sorry you didn't see the video sooner!

Is it possible to install Windows on it?

No, it is a Chromebook, if you want Windows you can purchase a laptop with Windows at a lower or comparable price.
Yeah Chromebooks are just blah. Oh great review by the way!!
