Excellent case which is very easy to setup. I couldn't find instructions on how to connect the fan to the Pi but a quick search on the internet showed me what to do. Would definitely buy it again.

Looks very smart on my desk in black. Would be better if sold without the fan as I have already bought the active cooler! Not enough vents to exhaust the hot air with the lid on though.

I think it's a great case, it's sturdy and the cooler can be easily installed. However, be careful when attaching the cooler connector to the board. You may bend the connector pins on the board.

The case is of good quality, but does not accommodate the pimoroni nvme base, what a pity??

Nice form factor and quiet fan for cooling. Stylish integration of the power button. Looks nice on my desk

Lovely little case; I will admit to liking the black/grey aesthetic over the red/white alternative. The case is sturdy, and will definitely protect your Pi5 from bumps and bruises. The fact that you can fit the official active cooler inside is a major plus. I'd have liked a spot where you could fit the RTC battery so it doesn't flap about, and the clips that hold the lid down are a little tighter than the ones that hold the two-part chassis together, meaning you need to be careful when removing the lid to avoid the case disassembling in your hand. But other than those two issues, I'm entirely happy with the case.
