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

I read the review and was worried I wouldn’t be able to get it set up (I am absolutely not handy). The directions must have gotten much better because it wasn’t challenging at all. Electric screwdriver is a must. Took me an hour.

First time trying a rack and I am very happy how it turned out. I love to tinker with electronics and was getting to the point that I had several desks covered in systems/parts. I purchased the 15U version and was able to get 6 computers and a DAS off my desks and placed on the rack. No issues with putting the rack together at all, just time consuming. Definitely get a drill, I used a dewalt 20V on torque setting 6 and I didn't strip any screws. The shelves can't really take alot of weight without bowing so I had to put my larger workstation on the top behind the monitor(Dell T30). I bought 2 extra full length shelves, only have 1 in the picture though. The wheels that come with the unit did not look like they would take the weight that I wanted to put in the rack so I bought new ones at my local farm store for a few bucks. Other reviews mention the max weight in the instructions differ from the stated one on the amazon page and mine said the same thing, I probably have 60 to 80lbs total loaded on the rack and it seems solid to me. The only thing I wish I would have done is bought the 20U or even a 24U if they make one, the unit is just a tad short for my barstool I use to sit comfortably and use the top workstation. I will be buying another one soon to finish clearing off my desks.

I don't think there is anything that I don't like about this product. It is very sturdy and well constructed. You will absolutely need an electric screwdriver/light drill to install the self-tapping bolts or you better be young and strong. It probably took me two hours to put together by myself while sitting on the couch and that included unwrapping each part from it's protective plastic. I am putting this in my basement for my home network, but would say this is definitely high enough quality to use in a commercial or small business wiring closet. The product turned out square, solid, and looks professional.

Beefy sturdy Great product! price good

The build wasn’t too bad at all! Like a lot of instruction manuals for furniture these days, this one left a bit of assuming and figuring, but it was good enough to tell where each piece went. I’m glad fastening all the pieces all used the same size screw. The casters downright stink, however. Luckily I won’t need to move the rack much. If I were to change anything, I’d make it easier to widen the rack without having to remove 16 screws. It turns out some of my equipment is longer than I’d realized so it’s sticking out. I’m sure I’ll get to it eventually, but it’ll surely require me removing everything to do so.

I recently acquired the 12U Open Frame Server Rack with 23''-40'' Adjustable Depth, Free Standing, aiming to enhance my home server setup. While the rack ultimately proved to be a sturdy and reliable addition to my space, the installation process left me with mixed feelings. Pros: Sturdy and reliable construction Adjustable depth for versatile server configurations Open frame design allows easy access to servers Cons: Confusing and poorly illustrated installation instructions Challenging assembly process may frustrate users

A good rack, sturdy and easy to put together. The length is adjustable, so can be used for different types of hardware. As good as others much more expensive.

Lots of reviews saying it's so hard to assemble but it actually went really smoothly. Lots of screws but a cordless drill makes quick work of it. My use for this is to hold a couple servers, and because they are on rails, it will hold them just fine. The strips of metal that the cage nuts are thin enough that they flex just by wiggling the shelves that come with it, so they won't be able to hold much unsupported weight. But with my dell poweredge on rails being held from the front and back, it works just fine

Simple to assemble, great build quality. The assembled rack easily housed my servers and networking equipment. The wall mount option is great as well and will prove useful in other installations. I will be buying another for my home network as well.

The best qualtity product i have ever purchase that was manufactured in a foreign country. Ever screw hole lined up. It fit nice, very stong. Arrived packaged well. Cannot say enough good things about this produce. However do not attempt to assembly it with an electric or manual screwdrive; You must have a driver tool and quality Phillips bits to put it together. It is not an easy assembly because of the braces. Every piece is powder coated and top quality. Advice: Follow the instructions closely.
