New models are coming out in a week or so. You should wait
Considering the keyboard problems and the stupid touchbar, I wouldn't recommend a MBP anymore and I've been using them all my life. I actually recently bought my GF a surface pro and that thing is great. You get a lot of the functionality of a laptop and tablet and it's cheaper than a MBP. If my 2015 MBP ever dies I'll probably get one myself. If you like Linux, I've heard x1 carbons are pretty good too.

Google CFO confirms 'large-scale' layoffs (Apr 17)
Refurbished from Apple directly is a good deal. Not under $1K, but still comes with the same warranty so you know you’re not getting screwed over.
This! Refurbished Apple products are like-new cosmetically. They’re refit at the factory.
Yes this. Both my last 2 macbook pros were refurbs from apple.com. keep watching for good deals, usually a 30% or so discount.
