| We were pleasantly surprised by the
quality of the materials used for this product. Despite the compatibility
with only micro-ATX,
the Banchetto 103 looks quite nice. The Poly (Mathacrylate) sheets provides a pleasant feel to the touch. The layout is well thought out and implemented,
however, testers and overclckers prefer a benchtable with all factor
supports and not only micro-ATX. |

The build quality is on a good level. Overall, the materials used are well made,
especialy the screws. The installation process is quick and intuitive, but also
does not need a screwdriver, since everything is toolfree.
Cable managment is quite good with two incisions for SATA cables, the 24-pin and 8-pin
PSU cables, but we would like to see two small holes for reset and power button cables
like we had on the Banchetto 101.
There was no reason to remove them as there is
still enough space on the top level of the table for such small
holes and it would provide much better and cleaner setup. |

| Banchetto
103 uses a very special design compared to all other bench tables and with
the matte black color combined with the chrome finish gives
it an aggressive look. |

| The Banchetto 103 from Microcool is listed on
Geizhals.eu for around 149 Euros excluding shipping costs. The price is slightly higher
than what we would like it to be but it is still in line with other similar products. Microcool's
Banchetto 103 is a nice designed and very functional bench table. |
