Portable rack units!
This rack bag is being used to house a Fractal Axefx-ii and on occasion Focusrite Saffire Pro40, to and from practice and recording sessions, and acts as a suitable housing in my home where it cant always be set up.
Very sturdy build despite it looking a bit basic. The straps allow for relative ease when transporting, the bag feels pretty heavy but it gives a sense of protection for the gear inside. Handle and shoulder strap are padded and comfy.
Velcro front and back zips are genius and enables the gear to in essence never leave the bag, and it offers plenty of space at the back for cabling and operation.
Very easy to recommend this due to the fantastic price, just be sure to do your gear a favour and get some nice washers to avoid scratching as you'll be taking gear everywhere with this.

Solid but with a caveat
For the money this isva very well build rackbag. But take notice: The suplied screws are rather on the short side (10mm?). They where to short for the amp I bought it for (Behringer nx3000d). I have tried without success to find screws that fit, but these are some weird non standard dimension. Neither US or metric screws fit, and Thomann could NOT help me with this. They have spare screws for sale, but they are the same short ones... I ended up getting an M5 tap and tapping the holes to metric dimensions. That is trivially easy to do IF you have the right tool...
Thomann seriously ought to re-design this detail!

Good solid rack bag
This bag is pretty good - the section that the rack brackets are attached to, and to which you mount equipment, is made of plywood so it's all pretty solid (a bit heavier than I expected but still very managable). Nice heavy-duty nylon bag material, lots of zips, pockets and straps - and it comes with hardware for mounting your equipment. This bag was rather deeper than I expected (my bad for not checking the dimensions carefully before ordering) so I didn't end up using it for the piece of equipment that I was originally intending to use it for - but it has come in useful for some bits of recording gear that I drag to gigs from time to time. All in all, a solid bit of kit.

Great for what it is !
I like it a lot
almost wished it was a bit shorter, but i guess this is because my rack gear is not that deep
still think it does the job and it has proved itself strong

Nice handy little bag.
I use this for my power amp when doing smaller gigs and don't need a full rack set up. It's done the job for years and was one of the best purchases I made when first going to a passive PA setup.
Pros: Really easy to set up with the amp, came with all necessary bolts and screws, lots of handles for ease of use when carrying to and from gigs.
Cons: Got torn to shreds over time. It's not a permanent fixture in your set up if you do a lot of travelling and gigs!
Overall: Recommend as a starter rack bag but over time you'll need to upgrade to a case, especially if doing lots of gigs.

Nice little bag......
This is quite a nice 2U rack bag. It's relatively stable for outboards etc: but I wouldn't recommend using it for a heavy weight amps and things like that.
One thing I strongly recommend is using fiber or plastic washers to protect your equipment from screw/mounting damage. Other than that this is really quite good value for the money and is equal in quality to other more expensive items like this.

Good apart from unnecessary straps
This is a nice 2 unit rack case. deeper than most modern units but the depth allows me to keep a 4 stereo into 8 mono jack snake lead curled up in the back. The only think I didn't like was the fixed straps which seem unnecessary with the sturdy handle. I cut these off with scissors and it is now much more manageable.

Decent Case but not great mounting screws
Wasn't a fan of the small flat head screws that are used to mount your rack gear to the case and it can be quite filly trying to attach them but for a low cost case it works well.
