For what it is designed it does the job well. Solidly built, it's padded on the inside to fit the dimensions of Helix LT so it does not move and tumble, it has rooms for cables etc. and there are four "legs" on the bottom side. The legs alone, not the weight of the whole thing (case+helix = 13.5 kg), is really solid and has high friction coefficient so the thing is not sliding on the floor when you press buttons in the heat of the action, dancing arround etc.
The case is somewhat heavy even without the Helix unit inside and closing the latches is a matter of skill that comes with time. It has to sit perfectly to close and you need to 'feel' when the hook of the mechanism is in the correct place to close. Those would be the "negatives".
Overall I am very pleased with the product and the service.

Solid case but rather heavy
Built like a tank .... and heavy like a tank. But, it very well protects my Helix so I'm very happy with it.
Now here's the downside. In vertical position with the handle up (there's other way actually) the Helix " rests" on some of the foam internals inside the case. After some months I started to notice that this foam starts to compress a little bit so that the Helix is a little looser inside case. Still very safe, but I may need to replace the foam alltogether or fill it up over time.

Good Concept, small things to improve
The product is solid and resistant, locks are stable.
Small tips:
I would increase a little bit the space for the cables and I would create a bigger and more comfortable grip to grasp, the one in stock is small and hard and since the product has a fair weight it can give slight discomfort handling it in long transport

Does its job
I have this case for nearly 6 months. Build quality is OK as with all Thon cases. Good Strength/Weight ratio.
Only one pair of butterfly locks though ! 2 pair (4 locks in total) would be better.
Helix fits very well inside. I was worried the foam would be 'pressed in' by the back of the unit but this is not the 'case' ;-) as of yet. Time will tell of coarse ! I suspect this will occur in the near future..

Great looking case
The Thon case for the Helix LT arrived today from Thomann. Great looking case..nice fitting interior. Adequate spaces for power and guitar cables. Only thing that worries me is the handle. It looks hardy but I'm not too sure about the comfort. I hope this helps?
Can't wait to tour With this come March!
Update..Did a show in Macau. The case was checked in. The flight was about 4 hours. The gig was done with no hiccups..The case worked flawlessly. Arrived home with the case unmarked. It is a good case :)

PERFECT & STONG
I use this awesome case for my Line6 Helix LT!
Its a great case for the Helix LT! It is strong, its fits perfectly. There is no way my Helix is moving inside the case, its a tight fit! It looks classy! Also very good quality and rigid construction!
There are practically no cons except its is quite heavy when it holds the Helix LT, but this can be easily ignored as you know the case is doing a great job protecting your instrument!
When it was delivered, the carton box was pretty worn out from the journey, but the case stayed strong! Maybe they should have put the carton box inside the case! LOL, lame joke!
Anyways, I very strongly recommend any ,musician planning to buy a Helix LT, this great product!

Solid case
Seemed daft not to protect such an expensive investment when gigging! Considered a range of alternatives from soft padded bags through to the Line 6 rucksack. Decided on this as, apart from its obvious ruggedness, it has the merit of allowing you to keep the unit in the base whilst playing. Well designed and does exactly what you want it to.

Just perfect
Case is very solid and nice. My Helix is realy safe. I really like the way the helix is ??secured from moving inside. The only minus is lack of rubber circles at the bottom when it stands.
