Good quality product, excellent fan performance, easy to organize, easy access to all the cables and components.Can open specific panels easily, great support team if you have any questions as well.

I bought this rack for a new startup I'm launching later this year. 42U is bigger and badder than anything I have ever expected but I figured hey why not leaves a little room for growth. The rack is 7ft tall and weighs in at around 250lbs it has a max load of 1600lbs. The front is made of really nice tempered glass and the rear has a full size metal door to access the back of your rack. The 4 fans on top are serious as hell and can move a lot of air I thought they were going to be small and cheap they are not. This is a real deal datacenter cabinet with no compromises. I'm going to be using it to build a cloud storage business with it and I got to say I cant be happier. The instruction booklet is really nice and comes with 6 sets of keys and all the hardware you could ever need. Everything has security locks and many nice dust free passthroughs. The PDU is high quality and has a nice industrial feel to it. The shelf is sold as a rock and fits perfectly and is vented. I am very happy with my purchase. If you are building a business or looking to expand go with the 42U setup you wont regret it.

Nice rack but cooking fans only read in Celsius which is stupid

Updated: Sysracks made it right. They had reached out asking what they could do to help. Offered to replace any bent or warped pieces. Since they've really tried to help and make sure I was happy, I've changed it to 5 stars from 3. If you've got a problem with your order, make sure to reach out to Sysracks and they'll help you out!Construction: The construction is okay... I only had three warped pieces and they came from the factory that way, not shipping. Shipping was 5/5 great and well packed. Delivery was 0/5 but that's not relevant for the product. I was able to fix two with a hammer and the last warped piece was the entire back door. Its just as solid sheet and really just impossible to level out. But, since it's the backdoor and I may or may not have it mounted by the time I load it with equipment..... whatever.Assembly: 0/5 awful. There is a youtube video that you HAVE to have: watch?v=Q5Qgd8KAhNUThe framing was the worst part... sometimes the instructions that you MUST follow are at the very end of the instruction so you find yourself unscrewing and rescrewing a lot at the beginning. Every single screw got stripped. I wasn't aggressive with drilling, just a nice first snug fit. Every single one stripped. If you never have to take this apart for the rest of your life, perfectly fine. They include a LOT of extra screws and little knickknacks so that was great. My suggestion for the rubber standoffs for the doors is... they should be thin, not thick. If you're having trouble mounting the doors with these, make sure you're not using a thick standoff. If you are, look through your kit for the thinner ones. After the framing was done, the rest was easy peasy.Design: I mean, it's fine honestly. At the end of the day, it's just a server rack. For the homelab person or extremely small data center, this is fine. I would hate to be the guy to build a bunch of these. If you're flipflopping on that dumb red stripe, honestly in person it's not even that bad. You can peel it off if you want, there'll just be glue residue and a sharp corner with the glass. Honestly leave it or paint over it. It's not that bad in person. I haven't had a chance to rackmount any parts yet, but I don't see any issues as of right now. If I do run into issues, I'll update.

We were looking for a way to protect our server from any accidents or theft. This cabinet did both. Previously our server was bolted to a table, but it wasn't protected from people bumping into the table or accidentally spilling something on the table or on the server. This cabinet is well made and provides easy access through the 4 removable, locking side panels. The cable inlets have dust protection and are located to ensure you don't have to leave anything outside the cabinet. Once you get the cabinet where you want it, you can set the feet to prevent it from being moved easily. This cabinet is a great value for the money and best of all, it really looks good in our office.

upon unboxing, found a few of the panels bent, and when putting it together there were many places where the paint was chipping off. overall, the cabinet is well designed and sturdy.

The Customer service is excellent and had a minor issue which was taken care with ease.I would give 5 star rating to sysracks. I would really recommend all the products from these guys.

The case is pretty simple to assemble. It looks really good. I considered taking off a star because of the fan control. It beeps loudly when a button is pressed and it is kind of weird to adjust at first. As carefully as it was packed, three parts still arrived bent. The lower part of the front door, one of the frames and the included shelf all arrived with a slight bend. My rail configuration left no room to use the included shelf, so I can't consider that in part of the review. Again, most people would have probably taken off a star for this, but since it's not reflective of the product itself, I didn't. Overall, I can't wait to fill this rack up. Beautiful rack, but be prepared to spend some time breaking down the boxes. I think I set the rack up faster than all the time it took to break down the boxes.
