The editors didn't like
None
SSD trays may have power connector problems
Front I/O mounted to front panel
Only one (1) hole for front panel cables on motherboard tray
Needs to include one more 140 white fan in the front
ModuVent system not so great for me (somewhat complicated fastening)
For some a door is a con

I like the front of the case clean
Removable 5.25″ bays feel like a missed opportunity to do more
– SSD “stealth” mounts interfere slightly with cable management.
Somewhat heavy
Air vents covers could be more modular
Velcro strips are a bit basic
Not the best use of space on the floor of the chassis when it comes to HDD-cage mounting
Dust filter in the front may not stay in place too well
