![Share tresgatos57 review](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"Note: My transaction date was actually in 2000, not 2003. The system wouldn\u0027t let me input 2000. Anyway, I think a review from someone whose case from coolcases has withstood the test of time is valid. I ordered a Chenbro \u0022Net\u0022 from coolcases.com back in 2000 when Jim Hanson was just getting his business going on the Web. I DO still have my invoice showing all of his excellent modifications but there\u0027s no number on it. Anyway, a then-top-of-the-line Athlon CPU went into the case along with a number of components. Jim made sure the case would be well-cooled and yet not too noisy. I\u0027m still using the case today -- four years later, although I\u0027ve since upgraded quite a bit. All of the original fans still work, and the noise level remains acceptable. The original Enermax 350 watt power supply Jim recommended and installed is still going strong, and this system has been used intensively for the last 4 years. I remember that back in 2000, when I was trying to make up my mind which case to buy, Jim helped me decide after I gave him detailed information on what I\u0027d be using the system for, upgrade plans, where the system would be, etc. I remember ruling out one case because he said it\u0027d be difficult to clean the filter. With the Chenbro, I\u0027ve had no trouble cleaning the filter. It\u0027s been a great case. Heavy, but durable. Lots of room for excellent air flow and lots of room for all the components without everything being cramped. Jim was a repository of excellent information on cases, he was always pleasant and responded to all of my e-mails. I think it\u0027s a testament to his excellent service that I still remember him after (4) years and wouldn\u0027t hesitate to order from him again next time I need a case. Highly recommended!","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/coolcases\/comment\/147237#comment147237","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/coolcases.jpg","store_name":"coolcases.com","username":"tresgatos57","rating":"5"}, "single");)

"I was very pleased with my order from coolcases, especially the proccess of picking out a case and buying it.
Though I had many questions about the case and customizations, Jim was very patient and answered them all expertly.
Once I decided on my purchase, things went very smoothly, and the product turned out exactly how I expected. My only complaint would be that on occasion communication was a little slower then from a larger company."
