Customer Reviews for VEVOR Open Frame Server Rack Network Server Rack 18U 4 Post 19"/482mm Relay Rack

I bought this to hold my A/V equipment for my theater room. It was exactly the right side for the opening, so I rolled the dice that it would be good enough. When it arrived, I was immediately struck by the weight of the box. I opened it, and my wife and I put it together in about two hours. Once it was fully built, I was Very Impressed at the Sturdiness of the rack. It was way, way more than I expected. I put my Surround Sound, a DVD player, and a switch on it with all the confidence that it would handle it. It works perfectly, and I love it.

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

The frame is solidly built. Corner stiffeners work quite well to stabilize it. Adjusted mine to 32” depth, so top cover (not adjustable:-) doesn’t cover all, but a piece of plywood on top would fix that that. Only problem is the wheel attach. It looks like it’s a spot-welded nut. I’ve only loaded to 80lbs and one has already broken loose. When done, load will be close to 180lbs (it’s rating) so I will have to reinforce somehow. Update: Three wheel attach nuts have failed. Not even fully loaded. It looks like they punched out a hex hole for the nut to sit in then spot welded it! If it were a full weld, it might have worked, but just a round clearance hole with the nut spot welded on surface would have been stronger (would have frame support stress rather than spot welds). Now I have to use two large pattern washers to compensate for the hex hole.

I bought this due to the price and was satisfied. I was able to assemble it in about 30 minutes with a cordless drill. I did use the included wrench for the wheels. I have this sitting on the ground on the included casters and it is great. I would buy this again.

Great piece of equipment, it did not disappoint, the metal uses good quality. The only complaint is it is a little hard to put together and also a little hard to figure out how long to make it. But once your past that its great, I have two servers and a dream machine pro on it with no issues. This could also be used for sound equipment which would be nice since it comes with wheels to move it around easier. Overall great product!

Its not a bad little rack for the price point - my only observation is that metal is a tad thinner than I prefer for hanging a rackmount case in it - fells like its going to kink something (if you know what i mean?). I went with some aftermarket shelf-rails for my little project - its ok not bad really.

Good decent option for a homelab. Not too hard to put together, had all the parts. There were a couple bent peices but I can't say if that happened at QA or during shipping. Overall pretty good.

I bought a 12U server cabinet for my home lab, which houses two 4U servers. My only regret is the wheels—they aren’t holding firmly to the frame and have become misaligned, making the cabinet difficult to move.

I have my TPLink Omada gear, a patch panel, a Cyberpower Rack mount UPS and PDU in this rack and I love it. Does what I need it to.

I was a bit hesitant to purchase this based on the reviews. It took me a few minutes to assemble it, no problems. It's sturdy and is well made, not sure about using for large rackmount servers but for me it's perfect.
