Samson Component Rack, 16u (SASRKPRO16U)

There was a problem with this purchase right out of the box. The cross-flange on the bottom and top components was too wide to allow the side panels to seat all the way in. This prevented the screws from being inserted.I had to make 8 cuts with a bandsaw to notch out enough room to allow everything to mesh properly (see photos).Aside from this, I love the rack! It’s well-built and nice looking. I wish the manufacturer supplied front and rear doors as an option, but that’s not a deal breaker.I recommend this product. Hopefully the problem I encountered is the exception and not the rule.

DO NOT buy from Sam Ash! Bait and Switch. When I finally did receive the right product from another vendor (East Coast Music), the rack was awesome! Great Quality!

I ordered the 21U version, but Amazon sent me the 12U version by mistake. I decided to keep the 12U version after Amazon did good for me. This rack is being used for my home network (patch panel and UniFi gear for now). The rack is quite sturdy and heavy duty. I went with the SRK PRO over the regular SRK for the extra depth. Installation was pretty quick and easy with an electric screw driver. Comes with screws for mounting equipment so no need to buy those separate. While this is technically an AV rack, it does well housing my network equipment. The rack did not arrive damaged by UPS like some reviews mention for Samson racks. Overall, I’m very pleased with the rack and would not hesitate to recommend it.

The Rack is exactly what I hoped for. It assembled with minimal effort, is sturdy and the adjustable depth for the side rail works great. All my equipment fits perfectly. Now ordering the front doors since I was able to set back the front rails. The rack holds 250 pounds of high end audio equipment. I recommend this product.
