3.0 out of 5 stars
Portability: Great. Engineering Tolerances: Not So Great., December 11, 2010
This review is from: Gator 10U Audio Rack, Rolling (GRR-10L) (Electronics)
The product design is good. As with the other rack sizes in the Gator portable product line (I own a Gator 8U portable also that gets moved with this unit), it makes moving rack gear tolerable by providing wheels and a pull-lever a la luggage designs. It's reasonably durable, though I only move it occasionally -- so far. My complaint is in the machine tolerancing - specifically the screws provided don't work well when you install the equipment into the rack. The screw holes don't line up well with the rest of the frame, and the Gator screws provided (they are provided, which is a plus) don't fit well. I own > 4 of a well-known competitor's 12U racks and I found that the competitor's machine screws worked better, though larger washers are needed. Could be a problem with my particular unit's assembly, but the unit is too big to economically send back. Emails to customer service with Gator were not responded to, though I only tried once. Tip: measure your vehicle to determine whether this unit will fit; a 10U unit could be pushing the door opening clearances unless you've got a van or pickup.
