        Mitigated

        Very attractive case but only 1 ventirad so the PC heats up a lot. It's a shame
        Good value for money

        Top

        Good quality product! Quite spacious for a mini-tower and very well laid out. Very fast delivery.

        Suitable for its price

        Clearly not a top-of-the-range box, or even a mid-range one, but for the price, it does the job.

        There's nothing wrong with Ryzen 3600 and 6750xt for this case.

        small box, but doesn't cut

        Well, it's been 2 years of relatively regular tinkering and this tower hasn't yet cut my finger (I've lost count of the number of cuts I've suffered on 'scrap' office towers). So it does the job 5 stars.

        Efficiency and speed

        Shipped quickly and matches the description perfectly. The price is unbeatable. The website is great and the information is detailed.

        Modest and efficient

        A relatively small case, which does the job. Few moving parts, and the screws are all pretty much accessible without twisting an arm. The fixing of the elements works well, everything was already threaded on my case. The space for cable routing is well thought out and efficient.
        The case is made of thin sheet metal and plastic, the control panel (power/reset/usb) has a tendency to deform when used, but nothing scary. The main advantage of these thin materials is that the case is quite light.
        The supplied fan is not very noisy. I would still advise to add 1 or 2 in the front to let in more air.
        Very satisfied with this case for a micro-ATX build.

        Case Design, lets the noise through a bit

        The case is very good for its price and very nice while remaining quite sober, the lights inside look very good with the glass and the opacity of the walls. It lets a little noise from the ventilation when the PC is hot but it's not disturbing if you have headphones or speakers. Very good!

        Correct

        the finish is good
        + one of the few cases that can be laid flat
        + good ventilation
        - soft metal, beware of scratches
        - no screw threads in the holes, you have to screw them in
        - The fan had a defect and was rubbing at each turn, LDLC sent me a (better) one without charge.
        - I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to use it on my computer, but I'm sure I'll be able to.

        Medium

        Minus:

        I have bought the entry level CoolerMaster before and was pleasantly surprised, but this time it is not the case.
        The magnetic filters are poorly finished and are very inconvenient to move the case, they just slide around.

        The holes designed to fit fans on the front and top are too small, they need to be enlarged to fit the screws. The ignition button looks "cheap" and is quite noisy.

        The power supply mounting system is quite special.

        The overall finish is poor and the quality is not very good, it looks like an Advance case at 30€ including the power supply.

        The pluses:

        Nice remote exterior, removable power/usb button, one fan provided, small and light, several 120/140mm slots available to add fans. The cable passages are nice enough to make the cable management.

        Ergonomic and elegant

        It is compact, the large window allows a good view inside, the placement of the discs in the back of the case is well thought out as well as the passage for the different cables. The magnetic filters on the front and top are easy to clean.
        However, I strongly recommend the use of a semi-modular or even modular power supply as the reduced space leaves little room for unnecessary accessories and optimises ventilation.
        I recommend this product!

        Excellent case

        Very nice design, it's a beautiful object.

        But this one is also very functional in terms of its internal layout: there's room to put quite a few things inside (1 HDD + 2 SSDs, the graphics card, which is not a low-profile AND my 5 fans!)

        The only downside is the fan slots. The holes provided are too small to accommodate the screws, so I had to move them outwards by one notch.

        If you buy this case as a first one and you haven't bought fans yet, I recommend 140mm fans rather than 120mm ones. They cover the ventilation surface better, and the holes are the right size!

        The design and the modularity convinced me, so go for it!

        Small, discreet, super airy...

        Very good product, if you are looking for a small box that breathes, do not hesitate. Super aesthetic and spacious! With a good airflow management and watercooling, you will have a cold af computer!

        Good box but some bad points.

        The pluses: small compact box, good price, easy to assemble, nice look, bo airflow.

        The minuses: - noisy because too open, thickness of the sides (glass or the other side), holes everywhere with only two magnetic dust filters on the top and the front, very light. Good for the temperature less for the noise.
        - I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this. Rather prefer SSD's as a result.
        - The fan provided was very noisy, I replaced it with a quieter one.

        I'm not sure if it's a good value for money, but it's a good idea to avoid it if you're looking for a small, very quiet PC.

        a little

        Great case, lucky it has the dust covers so not too ugly, great space inside, I still recommend.

        It's a great piece of equipment and I'm very happy with it.

        a bit of a fuss

        The side panel of USB connections sinks when trying to connect a USB stick. You have to try twice to get it to connect. It looks really cheap. I'll have to buy a remote key reader to remedy this.

        Great!

        Very nice case, and easy to assemble, a small notice explains well the various subtleties of special mounts to the case, which is nice when you are not used to it.
        I received it with one of the dust filters slightly bent, which means that the plate does not flatten very well, for me this is not a problem because I do not see this plate when I'm at the office so not so serious, especially that by bending very slightly on the opposite side I managed to flatten it a little.
        A good place for the management cable, very nice for a case at this price.
        If I have to give a small flaw, it's that I think that the case, being perforated for ventilation, will surely be quite noisy, to see....

        I'm not sure if it's a good idea to buy a new one, but I'm sure it will be. I'm not sure if it's a good one or not, but I'm sure it's a good one. It's great!

        Excellent value for money!

        I use this case with this configuration: Enermax NAXN 450W Tomahawk II; Bluestork Pack First II; G.Skill RipJaws 4 Series 4 GB DDR4 2400 MHz CL15; StarTech.com SATA6; Cooler MasterBox Q300L; LDLC SSD F7 PLUS 3D NAND 120 GB; AMD Ryzen 3 2200G Wraith Stealth Edition (3.5 GHz) with BIOS upgrade; ASRock A320M-HDV R3.0; Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut (1 gram); G.Skill RipJaws 4 Series 8 GB DDR4 2400 MHz CL15

        The space inside is great despite the size of the case, I had no trouble fitting everything in despite the fact that this is the first configuration I've ever fitted, the space behind the motherboard is really nice as you can easily pass the cables through. The hard drive slot is ingenious.
        The fact that the tower is very airy allows for optimal cooling, on Youtube with my configuration, the temperature does not exceed 30 degrees (22-24 ambient), in gaming the temperature reaches 52 degrees at the most.
        The only negative point is that the sound of the components is less well attenuated than in a more closed tower.

        I really recommend this product because it is very nice and practical.

        I love

        I chose this case to house a micro ATX motherboard and of course for its look. So much space inside and so little space outside. The transparent side of the case shows off the interior elements very well. And frankly the fan makes very little noise, it is even rather quiet. And what about the price?

        Everything from a great

        I got this tower because of its look and the number of fans I can put in it, I have a neutral airflow (no suction or rejection of air on the vents). I see some people complaining about the noise, but personally I don't have this problem (my old one was maybe very noisy).

        The start button is not the softest, but a little pressure in the middle does the job.

        I recommend it.

        Cheap

        I wanted a cheap, fairly small and not too ugly camera. This one fulfilled all three criteria. I would have liked to have the option of not having the plexiglass but it's not dramatic either.
        The quality of the materials (paint, metal) is low but considering the price nothing surprising.

        Excellent value for money

        The argument of this box is really the quality price ratio. Thirty euros is a bargain...

        A few small drawbacks though:
        - By design (very airy), it traps less noise, necessarily
        - If the assembly is simple, it is not always incredibly intuitive (many elements to be disassembled then reassembled, but it is very simple and well explained).
        - With a large CG, the power cables of the CG can interfere with the closing of the window.
        - The front design (small cubes) is in fact a magnetic plate. It looks very gimmicky and honestly more annoying than anything else.

        Again, at this price, I don't see why I would complain ;)

        Good box for the price

        A great case. Relatively easy to assemble, allows for good cable management and the space is pretty well optimised. It reopens quite easily, and it's possible to make a lot of additions/modifications to the configuration without having to disassemble too much.

        The only downside is that the 3.5" drive mounting isn't great in the sense that the system is a bit strange and doesn't totally isolate the drive noise.

        Mi amor

        I took this case to replace an itx case of type "too closed" at 130 euros and I do not regret it. The case is very open but you can compensate for the noise by choosing your fans well and you don't need to put them on too high because the air circulates very well.

        I wanted something simple and customizable and this is perfect, I love riding in this case. I wanted to put two 3"5 hdd's, I knew there was only one 3"5 slot but you can screw anywhere! So I put one on the front wall at the top and no problem, no vibrations, the feet seem to absorb them very well. So yes it's not made of the strongest metal but it's more than enough for me. I'd even like to try screwing on handles for moving.

        In short, for the price of a "cheap" case, you get a nice glass case, the freedom to mount your machine as you wish and no worries about cooling.

        Compact and well-designed case

        For a very reasonable price, this box corresponds completely to my expectations. It is compact, which leaves me a lot of choice on the final location of the tower.

        The illustrated manual is quite sufficient to find one's way around when assembling a PC for the first time (which was my case). The layout is clear and makes cable management easy. The packaging contains enough clip clamps.
        Finally, the number of vents in the case makes it easy to see that the cooling is going to work.

        The kikou bonus that always makes its little effect lies in the transparent glass that allows you to admire the components at any time.

        However, I only give it 4 stars because the big black spot is the HDD mounting slot. A bracket held vertically by a single screw (leverage effect), no anti-vibration device, no screw to fix the HDD bracket. It's a shame because the SSD holders next to it are very well thought out and easy to use.

        It's still a very good choice for a compact and powerful configuration.

        Practical and simple

        Very nice looking and simple design mini tower case. Only one 3.5" slot but 2 2.5" slots. Easy mounting with plenty of room behind the motherboard for cables. The case comes with a lot of screws, which is cool. The only big flaw in my opinion is that the 2.5" SSD slots are mounted with anti-vibration rubber, while the 3.5" HDD is condemned to eat tons of vibrations... There seems to be plenty of room for a watercooling system, but mine is air cooled for the moment.

        A little one who plays in the big league

        A very practical box.
        It meets all my expectations:
        Compact, affordable, robust and above all, easy to assemble.

        The only small negative point is that it has only one slot for a 3.5" disk.
        The front connectors can be moved, which is quite practical.

        The window may look "cheap" but you can't expect more at this price.

        I definitely recommend this case for those who have a certain budget for their configuration. :)

        Mac Gyver, get out of that Tower!

        In today's market, mini-towers are few and far between, and some of them are often more expensive than medium-sized towers!
        The QL300 met my requirements: small (but large) and affordable. And with the possibility of placing a water-cooling system...
        This part of the contract is fulfilled, the case is not the most robust, but at the price where it is sold I did not expect aluminium cut in the mass...

        On the other hand, the architecture of the case is really "open", the walls of the case (top, bottom, and front) being completely filled with holes in which you can screw, the possibility of adding or you want some option is up to you! For my part I put two extra discs, attached directly to the case.

        On the other hand, the same holes let through air (it's good for ventilation) but also sound (it's not so good for noise) which can annoy sensitive people...
