LInux-lite vs peppermint: my experience

My laptop is a lenovo B575. I had peppermint installed with no problems. I swapped out the 240 gig ssd to use elsewhere and installed a 120 gig ssd.I installed LINUX-LITE and had many problems with wifi cutting in and out, the OS could see the brother printer but could not connect to print.I gave up and installed peppermint, no problems whatsoever.
Just my own experience.
