Pretty, but it's a bit of a bodge.
This case needs a design revision or two. The case comes with two aluminum sheets, a mounting board, and a thinner sheet which you fold for heat-transfer. The spacers for the mounting board are too short to be useful. The bigger problem is the second sheet which you fold to make a heat-conductor between the sheet attached to the board and the top of the case. You have to wedge it in, and it flexes the mounting board pushing the board connectors out of alignment with access holes on the ends of the case. You can force the HDMI and USB connectors through the holes, but then you leave the SD-card hole out of alignment. The side panel itself if self-centering due to chamfered holes which rather compounds the problem.

The extrusion and silk screen are nice. I have the original "tall caps" board
Mine was missing the gap pad (ordered replacement rather than return), and the thermal contact between aluminum heat plate and case, a piece of folded aluminum shim stock, appears to be an afterthought. The extrusion and silk screen are nice. I have the original "tall caps" board, which does not fit the aluminum heat plate. I solved this by drilling clearance holes above the caps.It is not much of an upgrade from DIY. in hind sight I'd probably just stick with a 3D printed case and a 12v fan. (keeping in mind the board is powered from 5V and it does matter).

Nice case--giant heat sink!
Very nice case and it seems to dissipate heat well. You will need to go and watch the video for installation.

Nice case.
Nice case... However the assembly hardware and instructions could be a bit better. Lock washers would be nice too.
