Well made, but
it is not quite tall enough for the Waveshare PCIe to M.2 Board (D). That hat extends over the Ethernet and USB ports (to enable 80mm NVME cards) and needs 2mm more clearance than the standoffs provided with this case.

EDATEC RPi5 Case
This case is really well made and works with the M.2 hat. It does however have a few flaws -- 1) The case does not ship with any type of feet, so you will need to use some rubber bumpers on the bottom. 2) Access to both the power button and micro SD card become recessed requiring tools a tool to turn on/off (paperclip or similar) as well as tweezers to remove the micro SD card. All in all and good case but does have some room for improvement.
