Look at the metric sizes as the rack cannot get as shallow as 15", it is a little over 23". Good, solid, small server rack, but does not fit in the location I intended to put it in.

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.

Screws are self threading
12 U
Built quality is sturdy as a rock. Also easy to figure out how to put together. Only thing I didn't like is all the screws are friction fit and self threading still good build quality and easy to put together.

Montage fastidieux
15 U
Rack pour serveur a très bon prix. Petit problème, le montage.
Car faire un montage avec des vis auto perfo ce n'est pas tip top.
Ce n'est pas gênant, mais si besoin démontage remontage du rack ça peut le devenir.
Sinon très solide rien à dire.

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.

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.

Better than I thought
20 U
I had mixed opinions about ordering this rack (20U) after I read all the reviews. However I can only say that I am pleasantly surprised. After reading the reviews I expected this to take hours to assemble, however it took sub 1 hour to do alone. My 20U unit had the numbers on the front even though the pictures does not, only on the 9U unit, however I do not mind. My 20U unit did not have the coasters from the 20U unit pictures ( which looks like office chair wheels ), but instead it came with the 9U coasters, which seems durable enough. I have mounted probably 80KG of gear + the rack weight itself around 18kg so almost 100kg and it's not problem moving it around. People also complain about the screws, that they are un-tapped and how even an electric screw driver will have a hard time, also that they are philips heads. I had no problem what so ever, also sure philips heads might not be the most optimal, but if you are using the correct gear there aint no problem. Maybe people are getting different versions of this rack, mine was shipped from Czech Republic if that matters.

Difficult Setup & Limited Weight
12 U
I purchased the 12U open frame server rack. This unit is compatible with PowerEdge servers and other rack mounted equipment. The only problem is the 12U server rack can only support up to 200 lbs. In my case, my network equipment exceeded that weight limit and I only filled half the space. The setup took me 6 hours and 100% requires a power tool to get the screws in. The instructions were clear but the steps could have been more efficient. I ended up have to partially remove some screws to get others to go in all the way.

Great Server Rack for Home Use
15 U
Just the right height for my setup. I need to get a patch panel to make it that much cleaner but it looks pretty ok as is. Very tough little rack made from some ok metal. Wish the wheels had locks though, easy enough to swap out I suppose.

Good budget option, some minor cosmetic and structural issues
12 U
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.
