Pretty nice.

I got this because I bought a new Furman and needed a larger rack than the one I had. I bought the four space and it seems to be well made for what I need. The latches on the front panel seem indestructible. Very light weight and I love the handle and wheels...makes things a lot easier. I do agree with some of the other reviewers about the back door. It really doesn't make sense for it to be made that way. Seems like they should have just made it the same way as the front. But it doesn't pose too much of a problem for me. I don't really have any trouble getting at anything. I'm actually more concerned about the walls being so thin. You definitely don't want to stack anything heavy on this thing unless the corners line up on top. My old unit was a genuine ATA case and I could stand on the thing with no worries. Wouldn't try that with this. But it's not like I plan on chucking my gear around the room anyway. Good deal for the price.

Takes a licken'

Bought a 5 space unit about a year and a half ago. Mounted a Furman and my SWR 750X in it. The relatively small door is a little bit of an issue with getting to my furman, I solved it by putting a power strip in it. This case has taken some punisment riding in the bottom of a bus, playing clubs, getting thrown around in my car and shows some battle scars but still functions as it did when I bought it. My pull handle sticks some, but has since day 1. A good yank usually is all it needs. My 1 piddly gripe is that the wheels in the bottom stick out where it doesn't sit square on my 4x10 bass bins, the wheels usually have to hang off the side, yeah I know its cosmetic but would be nice to have it sit centered on the cabinet. That said, looking to get another one to expand the rig and it will be my first choice.

I have 3 of them. They're great!

I have had two of these over the last 3 years and just bought my third as my gear keeps expanding.
The wheels and handle are great for moving the case w/o a dolly. Stacks great with same type cases, docking into place fairly well.
I have power conditioners in each one and then load my compressor, dual EQ, amps, & crossover.
All fit well with no interference.
My only wish for improvement would be that it should have the same weatherproof, sealed front and back of SKB's other units. A larger rear opening would be nice as well but not a deal-breaker.
I also wish it came in an 8U model. I would have bought two of those instead.
Overall an excellent buy and a must-have!

Just buy it

If your looking for a rackcase BUY THIS ONE. It's light (12lbs for 6 space), the pull out handle and wheels work perfect, very sturdy, and just the right size at 17inch depth. Your back and shoulders will love it too.
I have a small complaint about the little back door, but it's still the best portable rack out there.
My entire guitar setup is in this thing, both for gigging and in the studio. Power conditioner, V-amp Pro, EQ, and poweramp. It's all I need and this box protects them well.
STOP LOOKING AND JUST BUY IT ALREADY.

Great rack!

I just got this rack and love it! It's very light and having a handle and wheels is very handy. Yes, the small door on the back does make it a bit hard to access the topmost rack unit (in my case, I have a Furman power conditioner on the top,) but it's a small inconvenience. Also, I am happy to report that the "pocket" for the retractable handle on the bottom, contrary to what another review had said, does NOT interfere with the bottom rack unit. I took a risk and bought a 3U rack drawer, not knowing whether it would fit on or not. But it fits perfectly! I am very happy with the purchase.
