Although this is a beautiful solid case - it is much too tight for the Raspberry Pie 3B. I only made it fit with some difficulty and then only 2 out of 4 screws would seat (these screws could be slightly longer.) The case also fits over the top of the microSD card, so the card cannot be removed without unscrewing the seating screws and (on mine) prying the board out of the case with a screwdriver. Also (probably because of this), within minutes after assembly the SD card end of the case was extremely hot. The Raspberry pie did not run (possibly through no fault of the case). Removed and tried reformatting the card to load a different version of Raspbian but it wouldn't reformat -- likely fried. Recommendations: 1) The case needs to be made roomier to accommodate any variations in Raspberry Pie manufacture, for example the composite video/audio output jack did not quite fit the hole. Also for airflow. Also because having to pry out the board with a screwdriver is likely to damage the board. 2) It must be possible to remove the SD card without disassembling the case. 3) The instructions (or marketing materials) should show a picture with the lid off so that it is clear that this is not hinged. The lid is somewhat hard to remove. Making a mistake (in thinking that it is hinged) could easily break it.

Very low cost case, highly quality, works great, heatsinks include self adhesive tape. Works great. Highly recommended.
Awesome case, awesome price. It's very clear, looks cool, the kids like seeing inside of it, and it has an opening to get at the GPIO pins or connect a breakout cable. Its easy to insert and remove SD cards.The included heatsinks are a great addition. They give you a little bit more headroom with overclocking, or just keep it cool if running at normal speed. They have self adhesive thermal tape installed on them and they stay put well.The screw drive is not great quality, but I didn't buy it for the screw driver.4 screws hold the pie to the bottom of the case, and the top half snaps on.I recommend this case, it's the cheapest Prime case available so you can have it quickly and cheaply.

Like the others have said, it's a great case. Pay attention when you install the screws
I already had a good case, but I needed a bigger hole for the GPIO so I could use a ribbon cable plug. For six bucks, complete with heat sinks and a screwdriver, this case works and is a great value. .When you assemble it, I suggest you put the screws in but don't tighten them until all four are in place. If the board isn't quite all the way down, one screw won't be long enough to catch the threads and you'll need to wiggle and press the board down just a little more. My second screw didn't reach, so I pressed down and the screw went flying. That's why they included five screws. Astonishingly, I found it. The case feels quite sturdy, though I'm not going to step on it to give it a REAL test. .The only problem I've had was the weather--my Prime orders rarely take a week and a day like this one did. Who would have guessed that fifteen inches of slow would slow the shipping?

It looks like hell but I love the case
Seriously, for 6 bucks or so you can't go wrong. here's why:1) It comes with hold down screws. a) plus an extra screw for those of us who are fumble fingered2) And a little screw driver, which you'll lose later.3) It comes with 4 rubber feet for the bottom of the case.4) It comes with 2 heat sinks. a) The CPU heat sink is really heavy. b) The memory/video is really tall.W*A*R*N*I*N*GI cracked the case and broke one of the inside clips. It was not broken before I started to install the RP.So be careful. I used scotch tape to secure the top and bottom of the case. It looks like hell but I love the case.

Perfect fit for Pi3
Fits like a glove. Mine also came with rubber feet and one extra mounting screw (in case you lose one, I suppose), a nice touch. You may have to very slightly flex the case to seat the Pi (there are clips on both sides that hold the Pi down onto the case bottom, along with being held in by screws), but that just means its a nice tight fit. Again, don't flex the Pi, flex the case onto the pi. I am glad this case has an opening for the ribbon cable. Being clear, I can see the power and status LED's at any angle, superior to an opaque case. Heatsinks were easy to apply with built-in adhesive.

A great case with a fundamental design flaw
This case is small and designed to fit the RPi snugly, assuming you don't need access to the GPIO. The measurements are quite precise, which I think is excellent.There is a fundamental design flaw in the clearance for the micro-SD card - you can easily insert the card, but you cannot remove it unless you dismantle the case, requiring 4 screws. I couldn't even use long-nose pliers to get it out! They have indented the back panel near the SD-card on one side, but they need to indent the other side to allow a person to get a grip on the card.It's also important to note that the GPIO and camera ports are not accessible from the outside, so you would have to remove the end-panel (near SD slot) to pass cables through. This end-panel is easily removable.Heatsinks: I used an RPi 3 model B, so only needed 2 of the heatsinks. I would have used the 3rd heatsink for the memory chip (underside of PCB) but the case wouldn't fit it - that's ok because it's not really needed.Package contains:* Plastic case (3 parts) with 4 screws (+1 spare)* 3 aluminium heatsinks* ScrewdriverOverall, this case will fit my requirements after I solve the SD-access issue (another job for my rotary tool!).

Works like a champ
All required hardware was included, and the easy access for the ports if needed works fine. I haven't done any stress testing so I don't know how the heat sinks perform, but I haven't had any problems.More critically, the case fits the board snugly, and the plastic feels sturdy and properly sized. In spite of the cost it doesn't feel like it's going to fall apart on me. The included rubber feet also keep it firmly planted, something that's been a minor annoyance for me when working with lightweight boards like the RPi.

I was not expecting much from from this product, for me it would be just another cheap chinese plastic case. But it fits my Pi 3 perfectly! The parts are well molded and the Pi click solidly on the bottom. Extra screw, good rubber feet and a small magnetic screewdriver are a nice touch for the small price I paid. The heat sink have more mass the original I got with my Pi. A great deal!
