This. The Pi 2 is the best value Kodi box you can get, if you can't run to the Chromebox the Pi 2 really is the best box to go for. Amazing support from the Kodi developers. If you install OpenElec it just works.
If you are looking for a nice looking Raspberry Pi 2 case :

They are all good looking cases. The Flirc case looks very much like a NUC.
