 Ok for short trip and light equipment.Dec 07, 2010
By bryan_m
We bought this unit for a 15 gig tour which required travel on 4 continents. The case was made ok and looks good enough. It's acceptable for light gear, but I would never leave my laptop inside it while traveling. Here were the problems that I found with it. There are only a set of front rails, even though the unit is symetrical, a set of back rails would have been useful for mounting power supplies. The rails are only fixed to the unit by means of rivets into the plastic This has caused an issue where one side of the plastic is tearing away and the entire rail with rivets ripped out of the case. This is why I said that it's only good for light equipment. The could have made an entire metal cage inside the case which would have kept everything secure and square. The unit is good with the lid which is useful for extra cables and non-rackable equipment to be stored for travel though the plastic base has also warped downwards in this section, not sure if it's due to stress on the case or packing but I generally don't squish too much into that area. This unit was the only 4U case that I could find with built-in wheels and handle, as well as TSA approved and fit on normal flights (not as over-sized luggage) which is a big plus. Also I can transport the unit alone without help or assistance. Other slight desing flaws include the front panels that do not allow for much clearance so generally you can't leave anything plugged in to front mounting equipment when it's packed up. The plastic used doesn't seem as tough as that used for Peli-cases. Also the little feet mounted on the front broke off on the first flight and the screws that were there to hold them in were sheered off shortly after. They would be wise to mold in the rest feet to the top case piece instead of using those cheap plastic pieces.
I think that SKB could improve this product and they could make a killing in the market since there is nothing else like this. It's a bit sad that after one year on tour the unit will have to be replaced.

No back rails is a fatal flaw. I'm not sure why one would not add them to an otherwise great idea.
