The Dell XPS 13 is my favorite laptop.
The HP Spectre x360 is nice too, but it's too big and heavy to use as a tablet. So, I generally prefer the Dell.
Chromebooks have a lot of advantages, but if you intend to share it, I'd probably recommend a Windows or Mac laptop over a Chromebook.

I have had good luck with Acer:

I would add in the 2yr protection as well...regret not doing that.

We needed a laptop for my K student to use for virtual learning and replacement for an old MacBook for home/personal use.
Obviously depends on budget, but we ended up with the HP Envy x360. It’s a 2-in-1 tablet/laptop. Was slightly concerned my K would have tough time getting hang of it after only using iPad previously, but so far, so good. Still working out most efficient set-up for easy logins to learning portals.
Set us back $1000 at Costco. BestBuy had almost identical specs for about $100 less but we preferred Costco for return, warranty (and almost immediate shipment).

Nah, don't bother. Overpriced, unnecessary.
NP. So what would you recommend??

Interesting. The vast majority of our use will be internet or internet-based Google Drive. Does that change your recommendation? And thank you!

We want to buy a laptop that adults and kids (7 & 10) can all use for school and work. We prefer a PC, not Apple. I'm intrigued by Chromebooks and similar devices with touchscreen capabilities, but we definitely want a laptop, not a tablet. We're flexible on price.
Any suggestions??
