> 24 hourDoes what its supposed to do. However, only enough hardware is included to mount three units. What a shame, otherwise good for what it is.

> 24 hourThis is a great quality network rack. Very sturdy and has a cross-brace on the top. It comes with all things needed (bolts and nuts for the equipment). I bought a bottom shelf (https://amzn.to/3lOC2sN) so I could put non rack-mountable equipment in there as well. I thought a 6u would be plenty, but should have bought an 8u because I didnt realize how much stuff I would put in there. Overall very happy with my purchase and looking at purchasing another one here soon.

> 24 hourVery sturdy, but it does not come with enough screws to put something in every slot.

> 24 hourI am sure this will support more weight not sure if you have room for it. 1. Heavy duty steel with folded edges 2. Not enough Rack screws to mount 6 1U devices.Only come with screws for 3 (12). So add in another 6 bucks for more screws. 3. The supplied drywall anchors are the plastic self driving type and I would not really trust them to support expensive equipment. Look for studs or attach a board to studs then this to the board.. 4. The top bar is not 100% necessary and can be moved to the bottom as the unit has no top or bottom, the mounting holes have slots in both directions. I had the rack full so removed the bar. Attached directly to concrete block for me this should hold a great deal more than 40lbs. Besides the poor mounting hardware and lack of additional screws this is a great product.

> 24 hourThis was my first time mounting a wall rack of any kind and I found the StarTech to be very straightforward to install. The wall I used did not have studs on 16 centers so I first mounted a 3/4 plywood backing board with .25x2.5 lag screws and fender washers then mounted the rack to the plywood using the included screws. No problems there. I find StarTechs decision to only include 3U worth of mounting hardware with a 6U rack a little disappointing especially considering how expensive their hardware is to purchase separately relative to their competitors. I think I speak for most when I say that I would gladly pony up the extra couple of bucks that it would cost (even allowing for a 100% margin!) to include a full complement of hardware with the rack.

> 24 hourThis is a VERY NICE network chassis for a small home network! Im glad to have purchased it. My only complaint is they do not offer more screws, washers and nut clips. There are only 12 sets in the pkg. Look for their 50 pack of screw sets sold separately. I didnt know this when I purchased this chassis.

> 24 hourI needed something that would fit under the stairs for a patch panel and UDM pro. This is perfect. Well made and easy to install.

> 24 hourHaving just installed some of these in a closet, the 6U versions work great: the price is excellent, they are lightweight and easy to hang by your self, they include screws and cage nuts, they are deep enough to handle all but the deepest network gear, and they are sturdy enough to do the job. I also like that they have holes for the reinforcing bar in both the top and the bottom, so you can move the bar to the opposite side and then flush mount two 6U racks on top of each other. For the money, I havent found any that even come close.

> 24 hourThis is the first time that I have purchased a networking cabinet for personal use but have been in IT for over 25 years and I can say that I was IMPRESSED with the quality, form, fit and function of this cabinet. Very solid, well packed, and came with extra cage nuts/bolts, etc. Really appreciate a company stepping up and offering quality products at a reasonable price. Love that the HQs is based in the U.S.....THANK YOU!

> 24 hourThe physical description online is exactly what I received. I put in a patch panel, network switch, UPS battery back up, surge protectors to make a small network tidy and functional. I couldt ask for more. Very sturdy rack.
