Review on πŸ”Œ NavePoint 2U 19-Inch Universal Vented Rack Mount Cantilever Server Cabinet Shelf - 14-Inches Deep Black: The Ultimate Space-Saving Solution by Doug Bundy

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Misleading description, actual usable depth is only 12.38 inches.

The tabs on the shelf extend slightly beyond the front edge of the shelf's flat surface. As a result, the actual usable depth of the flat surface is only 12.38 inches (NOT 13.88 inches). As a result, many large home theater receivers/preprocessors cannot fit all four legs on this stand, although the stand is strong enough to support the weight of almost any individual unit. Even if your equipment's feet fit, the protrusion and resulting shallow depth means that the front of any equipment placed on this shelf will be much further back than the rest of your equipment in the rack, making the front controls harder to see and reach. Also, the front edge protrudes too far down or up (depending on how you install the shelf) and the bottom of the shelf sits 1/2 inch above the bottom of the rack ears, making it difficult to mount other equipment or shelves higher or higher to install lower. this block. While strong, the shelf is of little value as instead of the 13.88" deep 2U shelf described, what you actually get is a 12 3/8" deep shelf which, once placed on it with matching equipment, is considered a 2 1 functions /2U to 3U. Shelf in terms of efficient use of shelf rails.
