Does The Job But Not A lot More
Okay so in this world you get what you pay for and that is certainly the case with this rack.
I bought this rack for a church installation knowing that once it was installed it would never be moved and for this purpose it is great. If you need a road case do not buy this product.
The ABS is very thin and flexible, the quality of workmanship is poor, some rivets are not fully in. (a bit of quality control wouldn't go amiss here), the corners aren't well cut or lined up but non of that affects the functionality I needed. Once you get a couple of pieces of gear installed it becomes a good ridged unit. The butterfly catches are very nice and the lids are nice and deep meaning there is lots of room to leave things patched or plugged in to a power strip.
The case is also nice and wide leaving plenty of room for airflow down the sides of your gear.
The handles are nice and wide and more comfortable than some.
My favourite feature is the threaded rack strips, no messing about trying to line up up bolts. Every rack should feature these.
Another nice feature is the mouldings on the top of the rack match mouldings on the bottom allowing theses units to be securely stacked.
There are also a couple of nice mouldings along the side to provide extra impact protection.compressors in this rack
I have a power amp, induction loop amp, EQ, reverb and 3 compressors in this rack as well as a power strip. It keeps all my gear and cables neat and tidy and protected from accidental knocks and bumps.
It would be nice if there were a couple of vents in the side.
All in all I am happy with these for the job I choose them for. For my road gear I would always choose a wooden rack case.

What you see is what you take
I use this rack case to put all racks of my band in just one case plus all cables. Pros, it is very stable, light and the backdoor that has the zipper comes very handy to store cables and small parts. Cons... it is not very easy for one person to handle especialy when it is full of equipment, defenately needs two people to carry it on each side.
All in all it fits very easy in the back of a car though and you are good to go!

Good case
A good case for the price. Quality is a little lacking in places and I would suggest buying a few more U than you need since the width at the bottom of the case isn't always quite enough for some rack equipment ears. It's not as rigid as some flight cases, but once equipment is in it it's good and stiff. I don't think I'd want to use it on the road lots, but as an equipment case that is semi static it's a very compelling choice (given the price). Features threaded rack strips, so no need for any nuts which does make installation nice and simple. Moldings on the top and bottom allow the units to be stacked, although I've not personally tried this.

Had it for years with no issues
I've had this for many years and never had any issues with it. The quality is reflected in the price but if you take decent care of it, it'll last. The only issue I've found is that if you have it loaded with lots of gear, it'll get heavy and hard to carry on your own, but since it's got two handles, just get a friend to help you out and you're set!
