        Correct quality, insufficient basic filtration

        Good quality and finish.
        The instructions for use are ridiculous, but the ventilation is satisfactory with the two fans supplied. However the filtration is absent, all the vents are present but let the dust through.
        With its 4 3"5 slots, it's perfect for a small home nas in micro ATX if you add 3 140mm dust filters

        A practical case leaves something to be desired

        It's a beautiful, dark and utilitarian case. The sliding bays for the hard drives are very handy. The removable filter in the bottom is a welcome addition and the two USB3 ports on the front panel are nice to have, considering the price.

        However, the front panel cables are a bit short. I couldn't route them through the back, I had to plug them in through the front of the GPU, which works but isn't so pretty. I will probably buy extension cables in the future to have better airflow and cable management.

        Overall, I'm happy with the case. It seems spacious and offers a good number of options in terms of drive and fan placement.

        good box

        I am very pleased with the quality of the product and the price.
        This box is not a top of the range but is in conformity with its price
        Attention the USB plugs in front are exclusively USB3.
        The LEDs on the front are far too powerful.
        The 2 fans of the case are quite quiet.
        However, the case does not filter any noise because there are air vents everywhere.
        The hard disks are fixed on rubber shock absorbers so no vibrations

        Excellent case for an affordable price

        Surprisingly, this very functional PC case at a very affordable price.
        The dimensions are ideal for me, especially the small width...

        The interior is very well thought out, especially the space for the disks.
        There is also room for the slightly larger graphics cards.

        This is a real change from my ultra-compact LIAN LI cases which cannot accommodate graphics cards of a certain length.

        The front design of the tower also appeals to him... a very good buy...

        Very good value for money

        I chose this box because it was available and without windows :-) More seriously I based my choice on the LDLC reviews and I am not disappointed. So it's not a high end box but it does its job perfectly. What really surprised me is that it is relatively quiet. When used for a video editing setup, all the components are at ease: GTX 1660, two SSDs, 2 HDDs and a burner and there's still plenty of room! The assembly went without a hitch, the screws are abundant! I recommend this product!

        good finish and modularity

        I already own a Define R4 from Fractal Design, so I was tempted by the Core 2500 for a more modest budget. The finish is good and the accessories provided are sufficient (numerous screws for HDD, CM, fans, anti-vibration pads...). It is especially less wide than the Define (which I can't install in my computer cabinet because of its excessive width!)
        In conclusion a well finished case delivered with two 120mm fans (140 would have been better).
