Power adapter is underpowered
Power adapter is 0.4a and you need 1.0a or more - with the original adapter my Pi not only crashes but has bugs that simply don't exist otherwise. This wasted about 4 hours of intensive troubleshooting and headache.The case is rather confusing and pretty bad as well. I got it working and it's "okay" but I expected better from the pictures.So in total, I'm using the MicroUSB to USB adapter, the case, the heatsink, and the Pi. Definitely NOT worth the price of this bundle. HOWEVER this bundle is also the cheapest (I think) that you can get those things with *on Amazon* so it's unfortunately not possible for me to make an alternative recommendation. I don't think this was a bad purchase, but I do think that it can be improved.

Inexpensive and complete place to start
This kit is indeed a good value for the money and just about everything you need to get started. It was just about the cheapest kit that had everything I needed and would ship via Prime. If you want a Pi Zero W on the cheap via Amazon this is a great product for it. The kit doesn't include a SD-card and I'm glad it does not as that would increase the price significantly and if you don't have one already you can get them cheap. But if you need one just be aware and order one separately.The only complaint I have about this kit is I wish they offered an option for the Pi Zero WH (the one that has a pre-soldered header). Those are very hard to find on Amazon and the only ones on offer cost by themselves near the price of this entire kit. Not all of us have a soldering iron and I'd wager the average Pi user getting started doesn't want to have to buy one either.

This is the best Pi Zero W Bundle you will find!
No bundles seem to come with the heatsink. This one does! It's also cheaper that most others. I wish the case allowed for access to the microSD card without unplugging everything and removing the board. But otherwise, great bundle!

This is really good.
From what i see its perfect, it booted raspbian instantly, and looks sleek, the power supply was iffy i thought but i was wrong it powers up every time, it comes with alot and is worth the price, it even came in four days early. If you want a comp to experiment with or wanna build a device then get this. Its cheap and really good. But invest in a Micro usb to Usb splitter if its for Comp use, and dont keep it always on, dont expect more than it handleing Gameboy and Sega Genisis and Snes on emulation, and maybe simple indie games like Exploitable money maybe, havent tried, and GET THE W VERSION its worth it. The classic wifiless pi zero is not worth it. For me its replacing my old PC that died until i get a laptop and ill probably be getting a Atomic Pi or Pi 3b+ to use as an experimental Pc later this year. But for projects or programmers or even light emulators and youtube this is perfect.

BEAUTIFUL CASE, PERFECT FIT
UPDATE: Having ordered a couple of different cases with cameras, I got one of the cameras switched with one of the cases, and it resulted it a case fitting issue. After discovering my mistake and swapping the camera to the case that it came with, the fit in the case is PERFECT. This is a nice setup. NON-RELEVANT PHOTO DELETEDNice kit purchased mainly for the clear case. I installed my Pi Zero, and love the board fit. It's snug without being too tight, and the ports line up nicely. It's a beautiful clear case with nicely fitting tops, but I used the top for the camera, and the hole doesn't quite line up. It doesn't block the camera lens at all, and I would not have had a problem with the centering, however, it's pulled the camera plug loose from the camera board a couple of times because of the constant tension on the lens.
