3 out of 5 eggs

Pros: -Cheap, nice looking case for micro ATX systems
-Optical drive door is a slick touch and really sells the "quality" of the system

Cons: -Back panel slots are more of a pain than they should be
-Hard drive mounts are not at all obvious, and the case comes with no directions

Other Thoughts: There are mounting holes for a 2.5" disk drive on the bottom of the case, and rubber-padded mounting holes for a 3.5" drive on the near side toward the front. It's an odd design choice, but it gets the job done and leaves a lot of room for air to circulate.

Installing PCI cards in here will make you sweat a little. I had to really coax and fight a single-width video card to get it in place, and more than once it felt like I was about to break something.

If you're not fiddling with the guts, though, this thing looks really nice. I would absolutely recommend it for system builders seeking a cheap, professional-looking case for clients who aren't into the whole LED-studded gamer aesthetic.

3 out of 5 eggsIt'll do

Pros: -Cheap!
-4 expansion slots is more than enough for a budget build.
-Keep my system running cool.
-Compact and light

Cons: -Flimsy little case, but sturdy enough for me to trust my parts inside of it.
-Mounts are close to terrible -1 egg
-I had a lose nut on mine, and now my motherboard is practically stuck. I'll have to get pliers to hold the nut while I take the screw out if I put another board in one day. -1 egg

Other Thoughts: This case should ONLY be used for budget builds.

3 out of 5 eggsBought ten; three damaged out of the box

Pros: Really like the case; for being cheap, it's well-built, and handles two hard drives nicely.

Cons: But the packaging to ship the case in is ultimately insufficient; the metal comes bent or warped 1/3 of the time. We bought ten, and three were like this. One was completely unusable.

Other Thoughts: So, be cautious.

4 out of 5 eggsPiano black gloss

Pros: Pretty case piano black, usb ports are not cheap. Small.

Cons: No cages for hard drives.

Other Thoughts: Metal kind of thin comes with a 120mm fan you cant remove because if you do you might break the face on the case. Faceless dvd rom drive, so no button you have to manually use your os to open the dvd rom. Glows red. 80mm fan blowing out.

5 out of 5 eggsGreat unique little case for the price.

Pros: I was looking for a some what compact & affordable case with more of a unique look. Comes with two white on black fans. One 120mm in the front & the other 80mm in the rear. But they are only controlled directly through the power supply. The side panel has spacing for two more 120mm fans. One of the features that really attracted me to this case is the very large back cut out to access the back side of the CPU heat sink. That's a rarity in a case of this price and size. And the hide away door for the DVD/CD drive bay is a nice feature. Also the piano black finish in the front is a nice touch. So far I'm very please with the value of this case.

Cons: None so far & for this price there really isn't much I can complain about.

Other Thoughts: This may be my fault but I can't seem to find any literature in the box included with this case. Not really an issue considering how simple everything is.
