Not the best. Cheap in cost and quality.
The thumb screws to remove the side covers are stiff and feel like the holes aren't well machined, and they don't seem to want to go in straight.
There seems to be a slight warping throughout the case - the mainboard (ASRock B450M Pro4) doesn't match perfectly with the supplied case plate and a couple of old paper washers were needed to bring the top corner into line.
The case doesn't sit flat on a flat surface - it rocks from front-right to back-left.
The buttons feel very cheap. The power button facia isn't a free-moving button, it's just a plastic tab that's connected directly to the case on one side and pushes a microswitch behind it. It's quite stiff and pushing it actually slides the case backwards instead of activating - the case needs to be held steady to power it on.
The PSU screw holes don't seem to match perfectly with the PSU (Corsair RM750), and the screws feel stiff, again like the holes aren't machined properly.
The light from the power LED bleeds into the HDD LED, so instead of flashing red, it's permanently slightly blue, and then flashes purple.
The front dust cover falls off at anything more than the slightest touch.
The front USB ports are also a little stiff to plug in and unplug devices.
On the good side, the front fan is absolutely silent, and the cable routing isn't too bad.
Overall: there are FAR better cases to be had for around the same price or a little more.

Well designed and made, versatile and roomy, good value
This is a quality product representing good value for money. It would be even better with a set of instructions that made sense and a customer service team that responded to emails (Silverstone, that is, not Scan) E. G. how the headers are wired. Supply, dispatch and delivery from SCAN was faultless.

Good case for a quieter system.
Got this for a new build. It has good access for installation, with it's removable (and padded) side panels. There are plenty of holes in the chassis to allow for neat cable runs and the finished build runs nice and quiet.
This case lacks the silicon mounts in HDD trays seen in some other cases. Having said that, I have not been distracted by HDD vibration, and the case is certainly very good value for money.

Cheap, useful and nicely made
Scan wants a review of my products purchased, don't see the point and it's Friday...
until I saw this in the list.
I needed a case that was cheap but not nasty, wasn't in need of anything specific (gaming, high performance, etc) so this would house a FX6300 with ACF7.
For the price range (39.99) I thought this was worth a try and I'm not mistaken, it's not as awesome as a full tower performance case @ 80 quid+, and it's not silent like the oh so awesome Fractal R4's but if you need a decent case on a budget this is it. I tend to avoid the cheaper cases as they're cheaper for a reason!
There's some padding to keep noise down, it's not massively effective but I only have an arctic freezer cooler not a 212 or better. Presentation wise it's nice, material is fine not too flimsy, power button very tacky but it works.
I like the fact I can face the PSU down and it's on a stand with holes to let air through instead of facing the M/B and components, so thought has gone into it by the designers. I also like the slight lift in the case (see stock picture) to accommodate connections inside. Cable management is a breeze!
tl;dr - on a budget? want a decent case? get it. Have a higher budget? need better performance for cooling? want complete silence? go for the R4 (for silence not cooling!).

Slick looking case.
Easy to build in and intuitively designed. The sound proofing seems to be doing its job well and it has lots of space for graphics cards and big CPU coolers.
Really happy with how it looks.
