Works really well with my Pi 5 and have no complaints. Just get it!
This is a very simple but sturdy metal case for the Raspberry Pi 5. There is plenty of room for a M2 hat to fit comfortably withing the case. If you plan on installing a M2 hat make sure to orient the supports so that the male threaded standoff goes on the bottom not as I did as shown in the picture. If you do it the right way it fits like a glove. By the way those little knurled nuts are so much easier to put on than the standard ones just put it together in the proper order.

This aluminum case is a solid and well-machined enclosure designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi 5. It offers a snug fit and a sleek matte black finish that gives the Pi a professional look.
Installation is straightforward, with all necessary cutouts aligning well with the Pi's ports and mounting holes. The aluminum build helps with passive heat dissipation, though it's probably best paired with an active cooler if you're running intensive tasks. The case feels durable and lightweight, and it doesn't interfere with wireless connectivity.
One thing to note is that it doesn't include a fan or thermal pads, so users looking for active cooling will need to purchase those separately.
A massive bonus is the capacity for some expansion cards to fit inside. As I always love a poe hat.
For the price of 15.99 dollars at the time of review, I think it is good value, especially for users who want a minimalist, protective enclosure and are comfortable adding their own cooling solution.
I only mention the lack of a PSU because some people may be expecting one to be included, but the DIY nature of Pi dabbling means you probably have 10 potential PSUs already and there's no need packing another one in with the case, likely doubling the price.
It's a relatively spacious case, intended to give you room to include one of several fairly popular add-in boards, along with active cooling.
It's well put together and I had no issues installing a Pi (didn't have any extra boards, though I am looking at a M2 adapter).
