> 3 dayAlways buy one size bigger than what you think you need. Bought a 4u now I need a 6u :/ Great for the price.

> 3 dayI 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.

> 3 dayThe unit was not square with the rails being wider than 19 inches. I had to unscrew the brace and bend unit back to square. Then I had to mive the brace back because it was in the way and wouldnt allow a 3 inch unit to be mounted correctly in the first slot. I had to drill new holes and temount the brace. Additionall the unit is heavy so make sure it gets mounted to studs in the wall and do not use the included anchors in wall material that is not reinforced.

> 3 dayI like this rack but they only supply enough screws and nuts for three devices. I buy the 6U because I need to mount 5 devices in it. You should know this before you are onsite, those nuts arent something you can buy at Home Depot/Lowes.

> 3 dayI purchased the 6U version to replace a 4U version from the same company that I had outgrown. This 6U model has similar features of being easily wall mountable, securely holding a Unifi USG, Cloud Key Gen2 Rack Mount accessory with Cloud Key, Unifi 24 port non POE switch, 24 port patch panel and vented shelf for a Unifi 8port POE switch. The rack feels solid with no side to side movement. Note I left the cross support structure on the rack but once items are mounted in the rack I would expect it would have been solid with out the cross support. I was able to move the cross support to the bottom of the rack (rack has threaded mounting holes for the cross support on the top and the bottom) and faced the cross support so it extended away from the inside of the rack to allow the bottom device to insert into the rack. This model of network rack is very reasonably priced and a good value for the spend for a home network.

> 3 dayIve spent a decade designing and building various sized racks of computer equipment. I didnt need much for my home network setup but also didnt want to pay an arm and a leg for one either. This was super affordable, had U locations on both rails, included mounting hardware, and is more than sturdy enough. One complaint is the support rail used on top or bottom of rack does cut into the top/bottom U location, so if mounting 3 2U servers, it likely would give you issues.

> 3 dayThis 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.

> 3 dayWorks well and was as described. I am knocking off a star because of two issues. The first is they didnt give enough screws and clips for all the holes. I got 8 sets yet this is a 6U requiring 12 sets to fully populate. REALLY. For the cost of 4 screws and 4 clips they short you. Just charge an extra 1.00. The second is that the metal is just a touch flimsy. Not bad and after mounting it is solid but prior to mounting the rack can be twisted. All in all Im happy.
