Customer Reviews for VEVOR 12U Open Frame Server Rack, 38.1-101.6 cm Adjustable Depth, Free Standing or Wall Mount Network Server Rack, 4 Post AV Rack with Casters, Holds All Your Networking IT Equipment AV Gear Router Modem

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

Really nice rack. I have three 2U servers and it does a great job without taking up tons of space. Very solid and the wheels make it helpful to move it when I need to get to the back. Price was the best part.

Very heavy duty and good quality unit. A little involved to assemble, but it is worth the time and effort. I bought the 15 unit rack after buying this 12 unit one.

Excellente qualité Montage très facile, les indications sont correctes Aucun jeu Tournevis électrique indispensable

I use this Rack for my home lab/media server. In this rack I have a 4U server case with 15 3.5" HDD, 1U surge protector, a Blonder Tongue Audio/Video modulator, network switch, and KVM. It is sturdy, and rolls well even over carpet. Nobody else is offering something as nice at this price point. Vevor is my go to place to buy White label products.

Dollar for dollar, you won' find a better deal on a rack that adjusts to long (real!) servers! I keep buying Vevor...the more I browse, the more I buy lol

Overall, the rack is great and give it 5 stars for the price. The installation, however, is 2 stars. You first have to use the PDF version of the manual to even figure out what the steps are because the printed manual is of very low quality. While you will eventually figure it out, it is not evident right away and takes some time to determine the proper orientation. There's definitely no way you can use a hand driver to tighten the screws since it is not predrilled/threaded. You may not need an impact wrench depending depending on what type of electric drill you have. The screw heads are like butter and get stripped pretty easy so be careful.

Super rack fiable et assez rigide pour mon imprimante 3d. Les trous des vis sont malheureusement trop petit et doivent être agrandis . A part ça tout est bon.

The VEVOR 12U Open Frame Server Rack, is a nice equipment rack, and seemingly serves its purpose. Putting the rack together, on the other hand, may also seem a bit of a challenge to some who are not so mechanically inclined. The directions are not all that informative - thankfully there are a few illustrations which give guidance to complete the assembly. The bulk package of screws which are necessary to construct the rack, are self-tapping, and are extremely difficult to turn with a screwdriver by hand - but once seated, they secure the pieces in place. For the money - and based on your individual needs or use for such equipment racks - this, VEVOR 12U Open Frame Server Rack, is priced to suit most needs of the user - perhaps more so from a studio (in my opinion) setting where the rack would be "stationed," as opposed to be expected to survive the rigors from being moved from state to stage, while on the road.

This is my first server rack i have ever purchased or used. Putting it together is not as bad as i have seen many others say for the reviews of this. I did have a small problem aligning some holes during assembly but it was from over tightening screws. There is a section near the bottom that secures two 90 degree angles together but is blocked by the nut for the caster wheels. I however did not have any damage from the factory. Paint finish felt just fine but will scratch off if you aren't careful. I think the parts were shipped in a very clean manner and were all labeled what part was what, minus the screws. After i finished assembling the unit i thought it was more than sturdy for what purpose it serves. Is it going to survive being thrown off the roof? Probably not, but for its intended use it seems more than solid and only takes about an hour to setup. It did say you need two people, but i did it by myself, with some patience. The only flaw to the entire cabinet is that NONE of the adjustable parts secure together with nuts. The entire cabinet is assembled using M5 screws and you must force thread the holes with the screws. They are not self tapping either from the looks of it. It seems solid enough with the way it went together so I'm going to try and not beat this around too much so it doesn't become flimsy. I would very much so recommend that you use a drill with a Philips bit and set the clutch to a medium strength. You also have to be careful you match both sides of the adjustable racks so a part isn't installed backwards or upside down because it can very easily look like it was assembled right. To be very honest i would give this a 4.5 out of 5 only because i feel that the assembly instructions could use some improving.
