Let me start by saying this cabinet does its job—mostly. The 0.8mm steel feels sturdy enough to hold my networking gear, and the vented design keeps things surprisingly cool. I stuffed it with a switch, a NAS, and some patch panels, and it hasn’t buckled under the weight (yet).

Assembly was... an adventure. The instructions might as well have been hieroglyphics—vague and missing crucial steps. I spent 20 minutes figuring out how to align the side panels without slicing my fingers on the razor-sharp edges (pro tip: wear gloves). The included shelf? Handy, but installing it felt like solving a Tetris puzzle blindfolded.

The locking mechanism is laughable. My cat could probably jimmy open the front door with her paw—it’s that flimsy. And don’t get me started on shipping. Mine arrived with a dent that made it look like it went ten rounds with a freight train. Had to hammer out a panel just to make the door close properly.

But here’s the thing: for the price, it’s hard to complain too much. It organizes my spaghetti mess of cables, fits snugly in my home office, and hasn’t collapsed (fingers crossed). Just temper your expectations—this isn’t enterprise-grade, but for light-duty use? It’ll do... if you’re willing to wrestle with it first.
