DIGITUS Shelf for fixed installation - 19-inch - 1U - Front mounting - Load capacity 15 kg - For network and server cabinets - From 450 mm cabinet depth - Black

Its sitting in my rack, it hasn't moved and it's solid and well made. Cannot fault!

Very sturdy shelf holds the weight of a 8 port switch easily. Mounts into standard 19 inch rack easily.

Great quality for my server rack, happy to buy another in the future

It's amazing how expensive a piece of painted, punched, folded sheet steel is. I expect that in a factory somewhere, robots are churning these out in the thousands per minute kind of figures. Having said that, the quality and finish seems very nice – no rough edges, and no marks in the (textured) paint. The captive nuts are also of good quality. As with any of these shelves, if you put several kilograms of kit on them, they tend to sag down at the back. This is as much a problem with the side rails on the server rack, as it is the shelf - but the two work together.

Made of strong metal and nicely coated. Fitted perfectly in a rack flightcase.

I've bought 3 of these as "like new". For just over £8 each. They shipped them from Spain to the UK - how are they making any money at that price. 2 were perfect, one was dented on the front edge. I'd assume it was stood on at some point during transit. They are not easy to straighten, they don't, they just flip to being bent the other way. But.....£8 each. I have one as a base shelf in my 500mm deep rack, to put my NAS and it's UPS on, another a 5U up from it to store a couple of external HDD's (to backup the NAS) and a couple of HDHomerun tuners on and have fitted the bent shelf, upside down, immediately above it (creating an enclosed 2U gap for the HDD's etc.) to give the cables from my switch, fitted above, something to run over and drop down the back of the rack, so they don't get in the way of the equipment below. All works, tidy - for just over £24 So if you don't need one urgently it's an idea to wait and see if there are any come up as "like new" with a 2/3rds price cut, based on my sample of 3 you have a 2/3rds chance of getting a perfect shelf, and a 1/3rd chance of getting a perfect useable bit of metal that you're only going to plonk something on and never look at again.

Bought 2 and I'm very happy with the quality, probably wouldn't have bought them if i'd realised they were going to ship them to me in the UK all the way from Italy. I have no idea how many trees I'll need to plant to offset that.

Came well packaged and fits perfectly into 1u rack. It has some weight to it doesn't feel cheap and very little flex when installed. Would buy again.
