My iPhone sometimes requires several presses of the home button. Is this normal?

It takes like 6 presses of the home button to wake it up, but this is only occasionally.

BTW, this is a refurbished iPhone

Not normal

No usually. If it gets worse it may be the home button itself.

That means the home button is broken. You'd better get it repaired.
