Introduction
I would like to thank
Caseking.de for supplying the review samples.
Caseking is one of the few companies out there, which will not just sell anything. They only offer hardware that performs well and is of high quality. The shop offers quite a few exclusive parts and devices from all around the world and it is also the official distributor for a long list of well known manufacturers. Their assortment has grown greatly in recent years, while great service and support is still a very important part of the shop philosophy. The website may be in German, but due to great demand, an English version is in the works. We received continous support from Caseking and they were kind enough to send us the first chassis from a new brand called "anidées". The case is simply called "AI6".
The anidées AI6 is available in three versions: black, with window and one with preinstalled sound dampening material.

Packaging
anidées packs the chassis in a fairly simple, but colored cardboard box. Both sides only have a large AI6 logo, along with the company name and URL placed on a gray backdrop. It would have been nice to see a picture of the chassis for example. Both sides are similarly designed, with specifications on one and some simple text on the other. There are holes to make carrying the chassis home a bit easier.
Two Styrofoam spacers hold the chassis in place, while a clear plastic bag has been applied to protect it during the packing process at the factory.
