Great features, a bit tight
Has great support for basically anything you could want in an itx build, the VRM heatsink is quite large though and can get in the way quite a bit when trying to mount the cpu cooler.

One of the best AM4 ITX boards
Wootware was kind enough to update the bios for the board to support the latest ryzen 5000 series. The board is solidly built and has 2 m.2 slots which some board do not have. A complaint I would have is that the nvme drive placement on the front is covered with a massive heatsink that feels a bit unneeded. The installation of the drive is also left up in the air with me having to go look at a youtube video on what to do because there is a screw you need to loosen but no real tool to loosen it with. I would have prefered that it was a double front m.2 slot but the 2nd one is on the back and while it sits nice depending on your case there might not be airflow on that one. Also note the board has 2 revisions of its wifi and bluetooth. V1.0 is intel and V1.1 is AMD. Make sure you have the drivers as windows does not auto install them if you dont have a connection.

Best Option AM4 ITX
Unless you need 20GBps USB front IO I don't really see why you would want to buy a higher end AM4 ITX board than this. All the features you could want and seems to be nice and stable so far. Included documentation is a bit sparse, m.2 front installation is non-trivial and not very well explained in the docs. Mine shipped with a very old BIOS version (F2) which is somewhat surprising, though not as surprising as seeing my system boot on a CPU not supported by this BIOS revision. Minor quirks were resolved after updating to F13c BIOS.

Great value for the price
I initially wanted to go with the ASUS ROG Strix board but that was R1000+ more than this and after much reading up, many favored this board over it. It has exceptional build quality and looks very sleek and well laid out. I'm giving 4 stars only because I had to do a BIOS update in order to get it to boot into the Windows installer from a USB drive, a bit inconvenient. Still an excellent board though, and the back plate is a great addition.
