Really nice looking.
I was a tad worried the wood effect would look cheap but this is a genuinely nice case. If you're building a living room PC or your office is full of dark wood furniture this will really fit in nicely. Fairly easy case to work with so no complaints there, I probably wouldn't use it for a high end build that would run hot (think 80 series GPUs and above) but for a normal mid range desktop/light gaming rig I'd buy another in a heartbeat.

Great build quality and looks to match
Wow, this case is incredible and so much fun to work with! It fits my double fan radiator and even a beefy 4080 graphics card without a problem. Looks incredible, and while it's expensive, I absolutely think it's worth it in the end. The temperatures are also fantastic.

Looks amazing
This computer case looks beautiful. The wood finish on the front really makes the design. The case is well sized, just big enough to fit an RTX 4090. Very easy to install the parts as it's very modular, if you need extra space or find that you don't need the drive bays you can simply unscrew them and they can be taken out. I think this is a very good value product as it appears to be a full metal construction, comes with decent quiet fans and removable dust filters to make cleaning easy. The airflow in the case is more than adequate and works very well at removing the heat output of my components.

Lovely and easy to build into
I've just finished new build using an i9 14900k and a 4070 GPU - and air cooled with Noctua fans throughout. I got the mesh version because, as a photographer, I need to keep the light in my room constant and free from distraction and therefore won't benefit from RGB -- this also means I didn't need to worry so much about super-neat cable management, although it's still pretty tidy. Besides, I don't want my workspace to look like a teenage gamer's bedroom. It is very nicely made, feels solid although somewhat heavy. I also think it looks better in real life than it does in photos. The only negative is that the USB-c connector wasn't working -- this was quickly remedied by dropping an email to Fractal Design, who shipped me a new i/o unit; a pain to fit but now it works fine. Overall I'm happy.

Stylish pc case
Love fractal cases, and this is their magnum opus. Replaced a fractal meshify c which didn't have anything wrong with it, just fancied a change. In my opinion this is the best case fractal have made, oozes style and blends in as a piece of furniture rather than your typical pc case. Has the usual fractal quality to it and is a pleasure to build in.

Love it... mostly!
Well designed & implemented, was a breeze to build in, extra removable panels makes life easier when fitting full size parts in there! Only down side is there's a slight rattle coming from the mesh side panel.

Beautiful case
Loved the look of this case and had a hard time finding one in stock until recently. Relatively easy to build in with the only exception of installing the fans which can be quite tricky (if not mounting to a RAD). To mount them on the outside behind the mesh filter you have to screw them in from the inside and it's particularly difficult to install the last two screws of the bottom fan (if using 3 X 120mm) as the power supply shroud restricts access. Thread the fans first or it'll be impossible. Only other gripe would be potential clearance issues when using an AIO with a beefy GPU - May make this case unsuitable in certain configurations if graphics cards keep getting larger. I switched to air cooling with the Thermalright PS120SE (~£40) and after adjusting fan curves it's significantly quieter than the 280mm AIO that I had previously. It also leaves me a significant amount extra space that would have been otherwise occupied by the RAD. It's a beautiful case and well worth the investment IMO.
