22U Server Rack - 39 Inch Deep - Server Cabinet - on Wheels - Locking Network Cabinet - Networking Enclosure - Lockable Vented Doors - PDU - LCD-Screen - Thermostat - 4 X Fans (24" w x39 d x49 h)

I'm extremely satisfied with the server rack cabinet's performance. It securely holds my devices and offers a sturdy solution. It's exactly what I needed

The server rack cabinet's construction is solid and provides ample space inside. It ensures efficient airflow and keeps everything organized. A great addition to my setup.

Okay, so overall it’s a decent rack that comes with all those good ol’ enterprise features one looks for in a rack of this caliber like locking front and rear mesh doors, side panels for cable management and even a PDU and a quad-fan exhaust system which is nice. Mine came with physical Instructions that were easy enough to follow along with. With the help of a friend I got the rack built in less that half a day, but you will need definitely need at least 2 people to assemble this. Assembled, it’s a sturdy rack and it fulfills it’s purpose well. Now…depending on how high your expectations are in life (especially given QC issues as a result of the pandemic), there are some caveats that may or may not dissuade others from buying this rack. Your mileage may vary.First: I’m not sure if this happened in transit after order or from the point of manufacturing to Sysracks and no one bothered to check it, but some parts of the rack arrived with damage despite good packaging and copious amounts of FRAGILE labeling. Luckily for me, the few dents and damage to the rack pieces were able to be hammered out and didn’t prevent me from finishing construction with nothing misaligned or not sticking out when it shouldn't. The only real casualty of the damage is that I have to lift the front door just some in order to close it. Other that that it’s fine. It’s not going to look goofy or fall apart on me, that much I know. 

Second: The quality of everything is less than expected. It’s pretty much on par to an open frame Startech rack I had at one point which only cost me $180 and definitely not what I would expect from the enterprise racks made by Dell or IBM (I've serviced devices that live in them during my IT career) for the same price point. To see aluminum screws stripping easily, paint that scratches off with minimal enough force and the above mentioned rack damage I was annoyed. But again, life expectations and supply chain problems.Third: Remember that super cool, quad-fan cooling system I mentioned up top? Well, one of the fans doesn’t work. Even worse is that the wire on it is spliced into the others with no physical connector to the control panel. The fan can be easily unscrewed from the top of the rack and replaced, but I’ll likely have to either re-splice a replacement into the wire bundle going to the fan controller, or I’ll have to pick up a case fan with a NEMA plug and have it run 24/7, which will cost me outlet space when it didn’t need to.So there you go, It’s a decent quality server rack that will fulfill the purpose of holding lots of servers and networking equipment securely in a big, enclosed metal box. Does it have quality control issues that seem unwarranted for the price? Yeah. Could I have purchased an already assembled enterprise-branded rack off eBay and not had the same QC issues for the same price including the cost of freight? Probably. Will I be returning this rack for one of those fancy IBM ones? No. Again, it’s a rack. If your expectations are lower than average and you’re utilitarian enough to look at it for what it is, you might be able to get by with the flaws or maybe not even have them happen to you and still have a useable rack.

Great cabinet!!!Incredible complete set for that price (shelf, PDU, Lighting panel, Air control panel with 4 fans).I’ve never met the same.

Sysracks Server Cabinets are well manufactured products. This particular 42U rack cabinet is great for home labbers for several reasons. One would be the price point. For the price you are paying here, you get the functionalities of a much higher priced rack cabinets from other manufacturers. Another is that this rack cabinet comes in several boxes which you have to put together like a giant puzzle. This allows you to assemble this in places like the basement of a house without having to carry a fully put together 42U rack cabinet across the doors and floors. Overall design of this rack is 5/5.The frame is well made. Once the four posts were put together with the top and the bottom sections, the rack cabinet stood very strong. The fan control mechanism is easy to adjust and control via the LCD display at the front. Few things that should be improved; the thermostat wire is too short. Since most of us will load our servers and UPS units closer to the bottom of the rack, I think the thermostat wire should reach the bottom of the rack and even a bit more (for diagonal reach to the bottom). Instead, the wire length for the thermostat doesn't even reach the middle section of the rack. I could think of two ways to fix this; longer wire for the thermostat or have a detachable thermostat (like a USB) with a rail for connecting the thermostat anywhere from top to bottom. I understand the Sysrack is probably thinking that the hot air rises and the fans are at the top so the thermostat should really be at the top. But I disagree with that decision. Another improvement I could suggest is that the glass front version of this cabinet comes with a solid metal back door. But the mesh metal construction version, which is this version, of the server cabinet comes with mesh doors both on the front and the back. I wish they gave us an option to choose a mesh front but solid back door version of this model. But that is just a personal preference. The rack rails are very well made and the included rack mounting screws and cage nuts are high quality. The screws even had the plastic washer to prevent scratches on devices. The package also did not include M6 grounding/bonding cables for the doors even though the doors and the mainframe had screw terminals for grounding/bonding. But you can buy those for about $5-10 each on Amazon. The screws for the grounding terminals were included in the package. The PDU is not very high quality. They should have just simply not given us one and maybe pass down the savings to the customer! Specific elements design of this rack, 4/5.The instructions on putting this together were not very clear. But to overcome that issue, the manufacturer has a brief video of how parts should come together on YouTube. However, that video is not very detailed either so you would have to watch multiple times, pause it and rewatch it, etc. Also the plastic box that the nuts and bolts came in had small plastic bags. However, I think they should label the bags on the bag itself instead of the lid of the plastic storage box. When you start assembling the rack cabinet, you will have to keep track of which bag of screws, nuts and washers goes with what number. If they have put stickers right on the bag, this would not be a problem.In my particular delivery, the company forgot to include the locks for the side panel. Instead I did however get an extra lock and a latch for the front/back panel. However, 5/5 for great customer service for shipping us 4 sets of locks for the side panels once the Sysrack team was informed about the issue via Amazon messages. It only took them 5 business days to deliver the missing parts to my home. The customer service is 5/5.The rack cabinet was delivered very well packaged, but there were few small dents on the top and the bottom panels. Everything else like side panels and frame are all delivered with no damage. At the end of the day it is a minor issue.Overall, I can give this item a solid 4/5. Would I recommend this product to others? Yes, absolutely! This price and packaging (disassembled) is great for home labbers.
