Don't hesitate, buy this case!
I don't know what else can be said about this case that hasn't been said already. It's just a grrat case. It's BIG, very roomy. Plenty of space for cable management. Has a very clever drive setup at the bottom near the PSU mount. Great build quality, great airflow, keeps my hardware cool, aesthetically pleasing, great price even when compared to other premium cases.

Aesthetic, Functional Case
I. Love. This. Case.Seriously, this is a quality case. plenty of room for good cable management, everything lined up smoothly when installing my parts. It’s really not that heavy of a case either. I love the metal IO buttons and the legs the case sits on. Recommend this case to anyone looking for a classy, aesthetic PC look.

Nice case.
Great, easy to build in case with plenty of cable management. The wood is a nice touch, as is the extra fan space in lieu of a glass panel. The thumb screws for the panels are horrible, though.

Amazing looking case! Pls buy it 😊
One of the best cases I’ve ever owned. Great looking case, easy to work with, enough space for a compact case.

No tempered glass + appropriate sizing for components + amazing cable management = perfection
I don't write many reviews, but I had to come on here to express just how amazing this case is. Not having to deal with tempered glass is a HUGE plus for me, it's a trend I have very much disliked as I tend to transport my desktop PC around. Aside from that major, major factor for me--this case is just so simple to work with. I was upgrading my GPU and realized that I needed to increase the wattage on my PSU along with it--in the past, undoing power cables and swapping out a PSU would have been a nightmare--NOT with this case. There's plenty of room to be able to perform this task without disassembling anything else. My radiator + fans take up a decent amount of space on the top of the case, but that didn't even block the CPU power connectors from coming out with minimal effort. There's also plenty of room on each side of the case so that cable management in general is an extremely easy task. The cherry on top of all of this is that the case itself looks and feels premium--and I love the design. The wood trim on the front and the gold buttons/connectors give it a very high-end look and it fits my aesthetic perfectly. Cannot recommend this case enough!

Excellent case. Could use better fans.
I am very happy with my Fractal North case. It looks great, has excellent ventilation, and a lot of provisions for fans. The case is on the small side for ATX boards, which was a positive for me, but if you want more build room I recommend the Fractal North XL instead. I bought the mesh side panel as opposed to the tempered glass version. The mesh panel version comes with provisions for side mount fans which really helps with GPU cooling. That being said, the side fan bracket barely cleared my CPU cooler so the usefulness of the side fans will depend on the size of your GPU and CPU cooler. It is a tight case.Cable management is generally good but the drive bays are basically useless. The power cables occupy the same space as one of the drives. That is not a problem for me since I only have a board mounted nvme but if you use a HDD for extra storage it could be an issue.It comes with two front mounted 140mm fans. These fans are okay, but they're nothing special. They are reasonably quiet and descent build quality but they are by no means high end / premium. If you want additional fans I would recommend a good third party brand as opposed to more of what the case comes with. I learned this the hard way.The case can fit two 140mm fans in the top of the case, however, one of the fans will interfere with your mobo's 8-pin power connector. You can fit both fans but you have to put a fair amount of stress on your power cables to do it.

Case Noir
I absolutely LOVE this case design! The throwback to wood paneling on our electronics is appreciated. I find it adds this touch of nature and elegance to your space.Just behind the paneling is the dust filter, which is pretty great, I find myself cleaning it every week or two. It's super easy to slide the front panel out and snap off the filter. Not bad metal thickness either, it seems like a pretty solid case.It barely fits in my current desk setup, make sure you measure correctly. The dimensions are 8.5"w 18.5"h 17.5"l give or take, and don't forget to leave some clearance for air flow. :)The cable management was good for me with no issues and everything seems to be staying cool so far.I really need to figure out how to take care of the wood paneling because I'm just past 6 months of ownership and I'm seeing what appears to be something goin' on with it, almost just looks a little too dry, maybe needs some polish or oil. I've never cleaned the wood yet.

Amazingly built case. You won't be disappointed.
Beautiful case. My PC build fit perfectly nice airflow and nice stylish look in my house. Build quality is high. Unreached out to customers support for a small issue and they fixed it extremely fast. Would definitely buy Fractal Design cases again.
