I purchased this a while back to (try out) use as a benchmarking platform for various PC builds that I tend to frequently make.
It comes in a basic carboard flat pack box, some parts are wrapped in clear plastic, and has a single sheet of paper that contains rudimentary assembly instructions...however if you have ever assembled a PC before, then this is pretty straightforward. Essentially it is comprised of 6 slotted aluminum bars and a plexiglass bar to hold any PCI/PCIE cards in place.
I did not like the flimsiness of the plexiglass bar. As another reviewer had mentioned he snapped his, I also snapped mine during the first installation of my GPU. The small plexiglass bar should be made of metal.
As you can see from the photos I setup a E-ATX motherboard, a 2080ti, and a single (120mm) fan radiator. This is by far the largest motherboard you can fit on this bench accompanied by a radiator CPU AIO cooler, which is does not state it can accommodate. I used one of the extra "L" brackets to mount the (Corsair) AIO.
Once it was all assembled I performed some minor wire management. The photos display the ease at which you can hide all the wires nicely by simply using some zip ties, and to note, the photos show a fully assembled and working build. Overall the entire "rig" felt very heavy and dense.
The "case" felt rigid and durable and I hypothesize that it will last a very long time, after all, it is just made of aluminum and some screws. The "case" did not possess a feeling of precision though. What I mean specifically is that if you were to use this as a daily benching station, which requires multiple motherboards being installed on and off of it, it would require some re-alignment of the motherboard mounts from time to time and some tightening of screws every now and then.
I used this for a couple weeks before I decided to return it. I felt that the overall assembled quality was a little lacking. In order to reduce some of the flimsiness that occurred with minor moving and adjustments, a handful of rubber washers would have greatly helped. I also believe that while I was able to fit an E-ATX motherboard on it, that it is made more for M-ATX motherboards, which would fit much nicer than normal ATX and E-ATX motherboards. There are other benching stations available on Amazon with similar pricing and better layouts.
While rating this product the prompted review stars asked for "Warmth". Sure, it runs cool because it is an open air "case". There is nothing to retain heat (obviously). The second prompt was for "Thickness" and the third prompt was "Sheerness". I'm not sure what this is referring to exactly. It is not "thick" once assembled and not "sheer".
