Some notes:
- It starts off on the right foot with stylized magnetic mesh (i.e. dust filters) on the front and top of the case, but like you'd expect in this price point ($50 at Microcenter): there's no pre-installed intake fan. There is one pre-installed 120mm exhaust fan.
- The windowed side panel feels like flimsy plexi-glass (i.e. plastic), but the panel has a neat "premium" feature that allows you to relocate the USB/audio/power button panel from the front to the top, bottom, or rear of the side panel.
- There's plentiful cable management channels along the tray, but none of them have rubber grommets. While it does have anchor points for zip-ties, there are only 3 of them and all are along the channels. Could really use at least one directly behind the motherboard tray to tie-down the 4/8-pin CPU aux power as well as top/rear fan cables.
- Speaking of the rear motherboard tray area, there's ample space to mount a 2.5" storage drive or even a full 3.5" harddisk drive.
- The 4 expansion bays are all the extremely cheap push-out design. Have to be really careful when removing these as you can bend the remaining thin steel frame.
- The PSU requires a bracket which serves no apparent purpose but to complicate the installation and potentially block your AC power cable. We used a Seasonic Focus Gold 650W semi-modular power supply, which cleared the bracket, but not without rubbing.
- There are no clear indicators for mounting front/top fans, just hundreds of stamped out holes, and a few counter sunk screw holes for radiators. This means if you're mounting front/top fans, you'll have to slide the fan around a bit until you find 4 holes that line up.
Overall it's a solid case, but there's definitely more penny pinching going on than not. If they charged a few dollars more for rubber grommets and removable expansion slot covers then it would easily squash my more severe critiques.

Very valid points. I used this case for my personal build. The expansion bays are Incredibly cheap! I was one of the unlucky customers to have bent it. Otherwise I was able to get decent cable management so I'm satisfied.

I ended up getting a Artic Cooling Freezer 7 X for my kiddos build in this case because the stock Intel cooler and the Gigabyte fan control was just annoying me so much with hard spin ups under load and big drops. The Freezer 7 X works better than stock, is quiet but by no means a solution for any big TDP CPU.
Everything else is passable on this case. Huge GPU clearance. Easy to work in. I initially bought it for horizontal use and it worked great at that.
Worthless bracket for PSU and the weird one on the back over the PCIe slots is also a headscratcher. Plastic window is all streaked/scratched up despite pretty careful handling.
