UPDATE: After contacting the seller Skytech, they offered me a partial refund because of the non-working fan. They also gave me an email address for the manufacturer Montech. After communicating with them via email, they sent me a replacement fan which arrived today. I haven’t tried replacing the defective fan yet, but I’m trusting that the new one will work. Overall, an excellent customer service experience in dealing with both companies. Changing my rating to add another star 👍
UPDATE #2: Montech did send me another fan, but it’s not the same one. It’s a 2-wire instead of 3-wire (which means it can’t be monitored/controlled by the mobo or software) & the LED lights are different enough that it’s noticeable. Not the end of the world & I do appreciate the fact that they sent one.
Negatives:
•Took 1 week to receive, which is a bit much
•1 fan doesn’t spin (replaced)*
•Fans are LED & not addressable RGB as the pictures might lead some to believe (although this is pretty clearly stated).
•Fans have older style Molex connections that are all daisy chained together.
•Cabling is fairly inelegant & comes held together with metal twist ties.
•No PC speaker.
•Materials aren’t the greatest. The gauge of the metal is pretty thin & a bit flimsy.
•No rubber grommets in the cabling passthroughs
•It’s perhaps a bit small for some ATX builds
Positives:
•Although the geometric aesthetic seems heavily “inspired” by Fractal brand cases, it’s a nice looking case regardless.
•Pretty quiet at idle considering the 6 original case fans, the 2 additional fans I added & a 3 fan GPU
•Good, simple design of the side panel, which is easily removable by just lifting it off, although the nylon ribbon loop used as a handle might turn some people off.
•Side panel is tempered glass instead of plexiglass/plastic.
•Small-ish mid tower case, but ATX motherboard, top mounted radiator in a push/pull configuration, 3 140mm, 5 120mm fans, a Corsair RM750 PSU & a 303mm Radeon 6650xt 3 fan GPU all fit in a nice looking package (although connecting the wiring & cable management is a bit of a chore).
•Good airflow
•It has a decent magnetic dust filter on the top, although that’s actually not great for airflow & will actually trap dust & restrict the hot air that you want to exhaust from your case.
•I’ve seen some reviews that complain about the rear expansion card slots being the cheap kind that you have to bend or cut to remove, but the ones I removed when installing a GPU were secured with a slot & screw (much better).
•Although the specs say it officially supports GPU’s up to 303mm I managed to squeeze in an MSI Gaming X Trio GeForce RTX 3080 which is 323mm with maybe even a couple of mm’s to spare.
Conclusion:
*After living with this case for about a month & the experiences that I had with both the seller & manufacturer, I’m adding the 5th star to my rating. It’s more of a budget case so you can’t expect perfection, but for $50 it’s an extremely good case & continues to perform very well.

Fantastic case for the price (I paid ~$70 USD). Plenty of space for even some larger components. Case fans are probably adequate but there is room for upgrading/swapping out if needed. Some folks will appreciate the option of either a full glass or full mesh front. Build quality is solid and sturdy. Dust screens are easy to remove and clean. The only missing component is a front/top USB-c port for people who may need that; if that's a necessity for you consider a motherboard that has that or a different case.
Overall very pleased with this purchase.
The case is standard, what it says on the tin, and comes with four fans. All the cords are already bound together, which is nice, and the exposed controller (while weird) does save some plugs. Just be mindful not to get anything caught on it.
Now, as in the header, it came with a defective fan that I still haven't gotten a replacement for despite having reached out to Montech. The other fans are quite nice, but it was a pain to get the cords sorted out and test everything to figure out it was the fan and not something else. Going by other reviews, seems like this isn't the first time Montech's shipped something out with a defective fan so I'd keep that in mind if you're buying from them.
The latch is also magnetic, which is great. It's easy access to the case and I personally think it's less hassle for little decorations than having to remove a whole pane of glass. With that said, the magnet is really weak. I forgot the AIO hose was sticking out a bit and the door just bounced open. Not great, but shouldn't be too much of a problem as long as you don't have anything sticking out.
Oh, and the case does require pliers to take off the pcle slot covers, so it's a one and done deal. I'm surprised they're not screw-ins in this day and age.
