they are not bad though the first CoolIT all in one water cooling cooler kept my 1090T within temps at 4Ghz which considering how small they are i dont think is bad.
And another bonus is they dont stress the MB with hugh lump of metal hanging off it and other temps inside the case will go down as the hot air from the cpu is vented straight out the case dont moved around inside the case my gpu temps dropped 8C by using a WC compared to a heatsink.
Not saying they are amazing and the £90 for the H100 might as well by the rasa kit for a little more. But the cheap all in ones arnt bad.

Meh, all in one water coolers
An XSPC RASA kit or a custom loop is the way to go.
Maybe, but not everyone has the techincal knowledge or confidence to install a custom loop or kit. So these products do fill a gap in the market. It would be interesting to see how the H100 with 4 fans stacks up against the high end air coolers like the Silver Arrow and D-14.

True, the H100 looks like it won't be to bad and it would be good for someone who doesn't have the knowledge or confidence to do proper water cooling loop.

I'm pretty interested in putting the H100 in my 650D for my next build around Halloween, but I'd like to see the temps and performance are like, but mainly because:
1. I'm not brave enough to try WC myself and tbh cant be @rsed with the maintenance.
2. They have actually bothered to make a gd, easy to install mounting system now.
3. I like the inside of my rig to look tidy and smart, and as great as an NH-D14 is, imho it looks like a dog and would take up a lot of room in my window, as I like seeing all the components not just a thumping big cooler (and yes I do realise I'll be shunned for speaking ill of the NH-D14
, just remember I would never knock it's performance.....well because you can't, but simply it's size and looks).
There is no denying how clean the all in ones make the inside of your rig, and I'm more than happy to trade off some £ and 5 - 10 degrees C, especially as 2500K's/2600K's run a fair bit cooler than my i7 950 ever would. But of course this is all dependant on the performance as £90 is a lot to shell out if it's no btr than a Dark Rock Pro or NH-D14.

Yup it all comes down to performance, like you say £90 is a lot of money when the top end air based competition is £50-65. Just have to wait for the reviews.
Personally I'd always pick the Silver Arrow over the D14. The included fans are excellent, the mount does seem more secure if less elegant than the Noctua. It is also cheaper and personally I think it looks better than the D14. They do however perform neck and neck, I just find it hard justifying the extra £15 for the D14 over the SA.

And the Hydro all in one water coolers seem to are a good idea they have just been perfecting them threw the series at the moment, it will be interesting to see how the H80 and H100 preform against the NH-D14 and also the old H series coolers.
They are for a wide rang of people. A lot op people choose these coolers just so they can see the mobo better and they have not got to worry of caring for a full on water cooling kit.

+1 for a review, OC and long-ish stress test (>2 hours) vs. top air coolers and 120mms.
I've been waiting forever for a commercially-available all-in-one with a larger rad. Seems like an obvious next step, but it sure took awhile. Asetek was supposed to release one (Waterchill 2011C) July 1, then decided to go with marketing partners. Not even sure yet if this is the one, or they were beaten to market.
