Uctronics 19" 1U Raspberry Pi Rack Mount with SSD Mounting Brackets (Holds 5x RPi)
Bought this for my homelab. Currently running 2x Raspberry Pi 4's in it. Build quality is good (paint doesn't easily scratch, no sharp edges, fits in 19" rack mount well, low level of flex). Worth considering how RPIs will be kept cool. Each one consumes 5W - 10W, so 5 of them in a 1U space can get a bit toasty?
Overall, pleased with my purchase. Hopefully this is compatible with RPI 5's too; but time will tell.

Great little chassis, perfect for running Pis from a PoE switch and using SSDs.

The item doesn't look to be much once you open the box while it's all in bits but once assembled it's a nice piece of kit. The instructions aren't needed apart from stating what's supposed to be in the box as in quantity as assembling the rack rail is pretty much straightforward.
Ideally, it's suited to running your Pis with a POE Hat because if you want to run a power supply to each of the Pis you'll need a right-angle power adapter, if you don't you can only get three Raspberry Pis in the rackmount.
Is it well made? It's OK. It is a very thin metal which can bend easily as I found out with one of the Pi mounts but it can be bent back with ease.
Is it worth the money? If it came with additional micro SD card adapters which you have to buy separately I think then it's probably still overpriced even though you can buy Pi rackmounts that hold only four for a similar price.
Would I buy another? If I had just the five Pis I currently have fitted in the rackmount then this would be enough, but considering I'm expanding with even more Pi's both Raspberry and Orange and maybe in the future Banana Pis then no I wouldn't as it would be too expensive for what your getting both value and quality-wise.

A really great piece of kit for my server rack. Fits perfectly with all my other equipment and I now have a shelf free of Pi cases and cables. If you have a rack somewhere, it’s worth putting this one in there.

Overall good 1U rack for the Pi's. Note that if you are not using PoE you will most likely need the "Right Angle USB-C Adapter" SKU: 104306, otherwise it will be a very tight squeeze. This wasn't obvious from the description.
