Customer Reviews for VEVOR 20U Open Frame Server Rack, 23-40 in 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

This is basically a well-manufactured, but light duty portable rack. The instructions could be much better - the printed version is tiny and badly printed. I was disappointed that Vevor don't seem to have an on-link PDF to look at. I ended up working out some of the assembly from images of similar racks on the internet. Once assembled it works well. It can be assembled with or without castors. The large castors and the overall metal gauges suggest the rack will be able significant loads. The supplied shelves are helpful, but very light-weight. They droop under modest loads (~10 lbs), so I'll need to get some that are more substantial for the rack UPS. Overall, and especially for the price, it's pretty unbeatable!

Rack doet waarvoor hij gemaakt is MAAR die schroeven die meegeleverd worden zijn een hel !!! Ik raad het echt niet aan deze in elkaar te zetten zonder handschoenen of zelfs zonder boor MET extra sterke schroef bitjes ik heb 5 bitjes kapot geboord dan noodgedwongen met schroevendraaier verder gegaan tot de blaren op men hand stonden zo stroef gaan die schoeven in de rack!! 1 keer en nooit meer koop ik deze

Fast shipping and decent price. Fit was a little lacking though. The bolt holes didn't quite line up and screws went in on an angle so that wasn't ideal. Still a sturdy rack though.

Major complaint is the lack of supplied hardware to actually install anything. They only provide enough hardware for 4 devices or 2 devices if you use both shelves. Over half the unit is useless without the correct hardware. Hardware is cheap to include with the item and they chose not to. Now I have to delay the project more to give someone else money for their mistake.

Missing parts. Sent customer service ticket. They said they will get back to me. And they haven't. Very lazy staff. I want a refund!!!

It’s a great rack for my home lab stuff. Was very easy to assemble and adjust the width to fit my servers. The castors are very nice as well and all 4 are locking casters which is a huge plus. I would definitely recommend for the price. My only complaint is mine came damaged with scratches and bent pieces due to poor packaging. I was in a rush to get my stuff set back up so I made due and bent things back to how they should be. Otherwise I’ve had no problems with it.

It's a great quality server rack except for the wheels. They're imploding on themselves not two weeks after assembly with minimal equipment installed. Only get this rack if you plan on tossing it on the ground. Otherwise it's simple but tedious to build, overall worth it but I really wanted it to be mobile. Can't give more than three stars, that's a major fail.

This rack would be fine for extreme light use. I put a 2U server, 2U JBOD, 1U switch, and a 2U UPS. With all of that installed with the heaviest on bottom I came to finish installation the next morning to find the rack and evening tipped over (luckily there was no power yet and no equipment was seriously damaged). Upon inspection I noticed that the tiny wheels had bent the screw in point, contorted the frame and forced me to take off said wheels. This frame would be ok for mounting things in a home setting but I could never recommend this for more than that.

Rack seems sturdy. I went for the 12u rack for all the space but am disappointed to find only 8 sets of nuts and bolts. Meaning you can only shelve 4 1u objects. Currently I have my UniFi Firewall, PDU, Switch and with a shelf under it mounted up and have no nuts and bolts left to mount my 2 2u servers with? I have a long server going on the bottum and a smaller one I was going to use the second shelf to hold up but cant even put a single server up with basic network and power equipment mounted.

This is a solid rack overall, but there's a significant issue with the advertised "adjustable depth" feature that potential buyers should know about. The Depth Problem: Despite being advertised as having 23-40" adjustable depth, you can't actually use the full range if you want to install the top plate. The top plate is a fixed size, so if you extend the rack to be deeper, the top plate won't fit. This is a major design flaw and feels misleading. Open Frame Design: The open frame makes it very accessible for working on your equipment, which is a nice feature. Mounting Options: I didn't wall mount it, but it comes with wall mount anchor bolts that look like they would easily hold whatever you could fit in this rack. Assembly: It comes with all the necessary hardware, including an allen key and wrench for the wheels or wall bolts. However, it doesn't include a Phillips head screwdriver for the majority of the bolts. Important Assembly Tip: You'll want to use an impact driver/wrench to install the bolts. I tried doing it by hand and stripped a couple of screws - and I'm a mechanic who works on cars regularly. These bolts are tight and need power tools for proper installation. Quality Control Issues: My unit arrived with some scratches on the metal, and one of the corner brackets was missing a hole. Customer Service: I reached out to customer service about the defective bracket, and they were responsive and sent me a replacement part, which I appreciate. Overall: If you don't need to adjust the depth much or don't plan to use the top plate, this rack will work fine. Just make sure you have an impact driver handy for assembly. The sturdy construction and decent customer service keep this from being a total disappointment. Pros: Sturdy construction Open frame design for easy access Good wall mount hardware included Responsive customer service Comes with most assembly tools Cons: Misleading "adjustable depth" - top plate won't fit at deeper settings Need impact driver for
