Great value as a starter kit
I'm a professional IT person and tech enthusiast who finally decided to get a personal Raspberry Pi 5 8GB after using various Pi models as micro project systems at work over the last few years. This kit has just about everything you would want in a starter kit, from the actual Raspberry Pi, to a quality case with a cooling fan, to an included micro HDMI to full HDMI adapter, to an included microSD card with preinstalled Raspberry Pi OS—just to get you started.I found assembly quite simple; the instructions with pictures in the box were helpful, and they also included a QR code for a video demonstration. However, to sum up the build experience, line up the power button, then drop in the Pi, attach the fan cable and thermal pad, and then just screw the two sections of the case together.I decided to daily drive the included Raspberry Pi OS as a desktop system and found it to be an enjoyable albeit minimal Linux environment. My day one project was just to install Quake III Arena and host a listen server for me and a friend to enjoy on LAN against bots. While performance wasn't perfect, things went quite well. I have to admit, for the price, it's incredible how capable this computer is right out of the box. I'm really looking forward to experimenting more with other distros on this device and writing some Bash, Python, and PHP scripts along the way. I'm fairly familiar with Kali, and I definitely want to experiment with that distro on this lightweight computer. I'm waiting for an order of more microSD cards to be shipped so I can easily swap between OSes without having to reimage the system drive.

Nice set to get a pi up and running quickly.
The included card had the os already installed which saved a bit of time. Everything you need to get a pi running. The case is nice.

Noisy fan! Otherwise great.
If fan noise bothers you, maybe stay with the Pi 4, or maybe another maker has a quieter fan. It sounds like a mosquito in your ear. If it's in a room that you're not in, it'll be okay, but beware this is loud!

Working great so far.

You get what you pay for
Exactly as advertised. Plenty of extra bits for multiple configurations. The carrying bag seems of little practical use, but it is there.
