I can confirm that "everything works" is true for at least my T460. For Ubuntu 18.04 you even get BIOS updates via software updates. Battery life is also very good. With Ubuntu now again on Gnome I cannot complain. Under Ubuntu 16.04 I had occasionally problems where I needed to restart the network manager to see new wifi networks (wifi itself was always stable!), but this minor thing is also no issue anymore.
Recently my CPU broke down and I was "lucky" to try out the on-site warranty to replace my mainboard, which was not perfect (took a few days compared to the advertised "next business day"), but better compared to sending your stuff somewhere or searching your repair shop.
Also note that I do not use any nvidia graphics or 3d games. Just have not tried it and I know this could be a weak point. Videos etc work flawlessly though.
It is also no "free hardware" (bios etc). For an alternative in that regard I recommend to have a look into the nice Librem line from Purism: https://puri.sm/products/ https://puri.sm/products/
