Pros & Cons
Pros
Two of the racks are full with 7u or 8u worth of hardware and hold it securely. Plenty sturdy for a temp install. Once bolted to the wall, this thing is solid.
Assembly is straightforward, though you do need your own screwdriver and wrench. Sturdy heavy gague metal and square holes for rack mount equipment. Comes with tons of extra screws and bolts. Comes pre-assembled for you.
If there is a single gripe, it’s that it is heavy. The beefier design makes it heavier, but it is a really solid product and mounts well. Kind of heavy, but strong as all getout.
Fantastic rack. Excellent piece of equipment. Pictures are attached. This is great.
Cons
It’s very flimsy and the only thing holding up all the weight is two credit card thick metal strips. Annoyed, but, whatever. It needs some back support.
Highlights
Quality
Not the cheapest option but worth the price for the quality.
I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of this rack.
It does not come with the lag bolts you need to mount it to the wall.
For others with the same problem, here's what i did:1.
Price
I was pleasantly surprised by how sturdy and well made this rack was given the price.
Packaging/appearance
The steel is heavy duty, nice black powder coat finish, hardware included, even the packaging is done well.
Although i won't get near the 200lb limit, i'm sure it would support it easily.
Competitiveness
I can see this easily holding up the rated 200lbs, much more with the depth is set to the minimum 12".
I've not used any startech racks before, but this one is so nice i'd not hesitate to buy more.
Before i got this delivered i found a 12u enclosed for about 20 bucks more, and i almost kicked myself .
I returned it and ordered a 12u.

Second be sure to measure the diameter of the mounting holes

I stupidly only measured the hole and not the slots where the mounting bolts should fit and ended up drilling too big of a hole for mounting
