I'm glad you asked what I feel about it, because fifteen days after ordering the box I STILL HAVEN'T GOT IT! I did receive an item I hadn't ordered, and returned it, as instructed, paying the postage. There is a long pause in which nothing happens, after which I send an email wondering why. I get an answer, saying that my goods will be dispatched as soon as the goods shipped in error are received AND HAVE BEEN TESTED! Now I suppose the testing may take time, particularly as it would involve opening the unbroken bubble pack, but I do think it might have been appropriate, considering who was at fault, to have dispatched the correct item immediately, by express, with the apology and refund of postage, the moment the error was apparent. As it is, I am left wondering whether the returned item has gone back on the shelf, the matter closed, and whether I am faced with the problem of proving I sent it.

This case is great. If you're looking for something that fully enclosed your pi, and looks (and feels) solid, this is the case for you. The only note I would give, if you're planning to use the pi camera with this case I'd recommend purchasing a long ribbon cable, as I had to route the cable out of the slot designed for the gpio connector. This case is probably best suited to a media player application or a standalone server/desktop replacement, I.e. Not ideal for modding as the aluminum cannot be cut or drilled so easily.

After much umming and ahhing over which case to get for the new Raspberry Pi 2 B+ I plumped for the FLIRC one. It is a little pricier than the alternatives but the quality and fit is superb. Very simple put together in about 2 mins with 4 screws and a pad for the heatsink. All the slots line up with all the outputs perfectly and it feels like it's built to last. Highly recommended for the new Pi!

Tout est dans le titre ! L'augmentation de mémoire et le processeur plus puissant rendent l'utilisation du produit beaucoup plus agréable

This is the best case I've owned for my RPi. Its build quality is excellent and helps to keep the CPU temps down.

Pro: This is the best case I have (and also seen) for a raspberry pi, well engineered, excellent fit, robust, it isn’t scooted across the desk by cable tension sits where it is put!. Cunning slots let you feed the ribbon cables out and see some led indicators. Cons: you cant see the lovely naked pi inside, bit short on instruction, though with a bit of googling I was happy that the integral heatsink and pad wasn’t going to imprison my pi inside it forever.
