Great rack for the price. Thankfully my partner is a mechanical engineer, and was able to help assemble. While the components are labeled, it would have taken me longer to do it solo. No regrets, If the need arises, I will purchase another.

The server rack welds for the caster mounts broke off immediately when loaded to 20% of claimed weight limit, rendering it useless immediately after a lot of assembly work.

Everything works great. Went together easy. Now sitting in the server room with 3 Supermicro 36 bay storage servers running on it. The only problem is with the top plate. It only fits with one depth. If you extend it at all, the top won’t fit on it and you will have to make one for it. I actually cut and stained a piece of 1/4” plywood for it.

It was worth it, but at what cost...

Pros: - This is a gem in the rough for the price, it beats StarTech. - It's built sturdy enough for mid-weight servers, don't expect it to hold up massive NAS or SANs. It definitely feels like 200lbs really is its limit. - It's 20U, industry standard square-holes (for M6x16mm and square cage nuts), and comes with 2 incredibly well-built shelves. Cons: - If assembling yourself, prepare a few hours or so to assemble it, including loading it with gear. Much of the issues are screw alignments and the awkwardness. - The instructions require some engineering intuitiveness. I spent a good 5 minutes trying to decode some of its reasonings and then much of it clicked and it was off to the races. - All the screws, and I do mean all of them including the standoffs and grounding cord, comes in one single bag. - The alignments are not the greatest, be glad you have an electric drill. - The small corner pieces will be your bane, I gave up on the inner screws. - Didn't come with a flat-wrench to put on the wheels, had to make due with a crescent wrench at first until I got an actual normal wrench that fit its size. - Given it's weight limit and mid-grade sturdiness, I do recommend having some extra shelf units and rail mounts just to add extra stability. Niche nitpick: As another review stated, they could have made the opportunistic decision to make a fully all-side 19\" compatibility. That would have been insanely awesome and there's plenty of homelabbers that would have loved it. You can still mount half-racks in the midsections to make due, but damn, that is so close to perfection for some people's use-cases. Like me, I have it floor standing with the front side facing the edge of a desk (top units are net gear), the back side is facing an open area corner for access, and its side is facing out into the open room, and its other side is against the wall. That open midsection could have LCD panels, fan mounts, or w/e in standard 19\" rack form, but sadly no.

So far I've mounted a heavy UPS on the bottom and some switches on the top and it's doing pretty well, setup wasn't too hard, I think it was a good value for what you get.

Perfect Server Rack

Rack went together easy and functions great as a home lab network setup in my case. Lots of screws for assembly but it was fun to put together.

Power screwdriver is a must

Reviewed on Dec 09, 2024

Nice construction, but make sure you have a power screwdriver. It is mentioned in the instructions as well. Screws are used and require a good amount of force to drive into the metal components. Only complaint is that very few rack mount bolts and corresponding nuts included. I would at least make sure you have enough to rack 2 or 3 additional devices. Comes with enough to mound trays and 4 additional for 1 device. They are cheap, but would a have added to original purchase if i knew

Great choice for a small homelab, very well built. But the rack hardware nuts could have been better.
