I have not used it or even seen it in person, but from what's I've seen and read about it it looks like a pretty decent case. 120mm fans, lots of space and storage, solid aluminum construction, unique/interesting looks. I guess my only problem with it is the location of the only front mounted USB ports. Depending on how the case sits situated to you, they could be hard to get at. Given it is within a reasonable price range for you, I don't have any immediate reasons not to recommend it though.

It's going for a pretty decent price with the rebate at Newegg right now too.

The only negative I see is the front fan looks like it will have a hard time sucking air through that door. According to this review, its not a problem.

Here are a few more reviews.
