“Good product for the geeks. If you want a media center it's not the perfect show case.”

“The design is awesome but the micro sd slot doesn't fit properly. I have to push down on the PI inside the case to be able to push down on the microsd card.”

“Looks nice and has ok value. And has nice features, place for the camera module in example. But had to cut one small piece inside the case to get the Pi in it.”

“This is a good case for the Pi 2 and older B+. You do need to remove a small rib to fit the new model, which is trivial. The case has a removable lid, which makes accessing the GPIO pins easy, and includes ventilation through the raspberry logo. You can also easily tape coloured card inside the lid as I did to make the raspberry logo red and green, which looks beautiful. One small quibble - since this is designed for the B+, on the new Raspberry Pi 2 the SoC (main chip) has moved slightly, and isn't totally exposed on removing the lid. This means the case may require further modification for fitting a heatsink on the RPi2, such as cutting away some of the plastic inside it. You'd also need to cut away some plastic to fit a heatsink to the USB/Ethernet controller chip, on either the B+ or the new RPi2. Other than this minor issue, this is a good case and good value.”

“Generally good little case design allows easy fitting of the pi 2 board so it is pi 2 ready but 1) I would like to be able to see the LEDs on the board may be fit a bit of clear plastic over these 2) The heat sink which I purchased from Pi Hut ill not exactly fit - I had to modify by cutting a little plastic to enlarge the hole maybe because the CPU chip on the pi 2 is slightly bigger or in a different position?”

“I had to remove some plastic from the case to get easy access to insert and remove the SD card. With the present interior design of the case you will have to remove some plastic if you want to use heatsinks in your Pi2. When the case is assembled it feels solid. Personally I am not very fond of the click-together assembly used with this case, I am always afraid I will break something when I have to take it apart or when I put it together again.”

“Nice looking case, well made, access to the sdcard is tight, so you'll need to mod it if you need to change the card often.”
