These boards are great. Used it to mount a voltage logic chip and to simply soldering a number of wires to my project. Great fit with the separate plastic box too.

Nicely made (though the Monkmakes version is better) and it solders cleanly. But they both suffer from the defect of far too much shorting between pins. Hence the most you can make is 'push a button and a led comes on'. I want to make a motor drive for a mobile robot. Inserting the driver chip and another completely grabs all the rows so nothing else can be put in (see photo). Again, the GND/3V3 strips down the sides are useless. It is a GREAT pity as simply leaving all the pins floating would have made a really useful device. After all, when you solder you can say have a transistor leg, a resistor and connecting wire all in the same pinhole (I connect with 32awg). Shorting strips are fine for breadboard (1 wire per pin), but are inhibiting for solderable boards.

Suitable for directly soldered Picos only (no headers), with fixed 3V3 and Gnd rails down both sides. Each Pico pin is numbered but only on the bottom of the board, and connects to a single pad for directly connecting devices or jumper-wiring down to the dual 12x5 prototyping area, which includes additional Vsys/Gnd rails in the middle. Excellent product, although connection to the debug port will be tricky (but not impossible). Physically this board is slightly smaller than "Pico Proto PCB" despite having more (shorter) strips for the prototyping area.
