Cheaper alternative, lighter, solid, but the snap locks are a litt
The ECO versions of the Thon racks/cases use plastic instead of plywood/laminate, but they are still strong and rigid. This material also has the advantage that the whole case is noticeably lighter, which is nice when you have filled it up with heavy gear. The edges and corners are metal and the two 'doors' fit onto the body firmly and securely.
The snap-locks are clearly a cheaper alternative to the butterfly clasps and work fine, but they are slightly annoying when handling the case without the doors as they tend to flap around and get in the way, especially when standing the case vertically, like you would do when mounting some equipment in the rack. However, compared to the non-ECO flight-cases, this minor annoyance might easily be justifiable given the price saving.
All in all, a good cheap alternative that is robust and will stand the test of time.

Thon Rack 2U eco II 35
Not the best quality out there but for the price, it does the job. I didn't drop the rack up till now so i cant talk about durability. Other than that, the rack is very good for people who like to keep everything simple and organized. I bought this because its a bit deeper than my processor's length and i can fit the cable in the back of it which also has a removable cover. Perfect for transporting your stuff to the rehearse room, studio or even gig without making a big mess of cables.

Very nice rack
Very nice rack; not too heavy but firm nevertheless. Ideal for Focusrite 18i20 (and possible another Focusrite Octopre AD converter). Great for travelling. Quality of building.

Lightweight quality for a decent price
I use this case for my Orange OB1500 amp and thus far it has done its job perfectly fine. The material is sturdy, the amp was easy to mount, the front and rear panel can be locked. This is an excellent product.

Light and durable
I wanted a light rack case for gigging with two units. Having used a more expensive Gator case for a while and found the rack fixings and hole tolerances etc. to be quite poor, this case was a notable improvement. It won't take a serious beating, but it's solid enough, it's well machined, and it really is very light.
The handle being on the removable front is my only gripe - it's never been a problem, but I always worry that the front panel could come off when being carried if it wasn't secured properly and the unit would fall. I'm not sure why they didn't put it on the side, like normal. But that's all!

It fit like a glove on my Eleven Rack.
Good quality, robust, does what it's supposed to do. Good locks that don't seem like they're going to break in a few months.

Thon Rack perfect match for Eleven Rack
I'm very pleased with the Thon Rack 2U as it is the perfect match for my Eleven Rack module...it's light and super handy for live sessions and I use it to carry my Eleven Rack into the studio as well...there's a handle on the front panel but you can carry it hanging over your shoulder by using the strap that comes along with it...allows you to carry your guitar at the same time ;-)

Low weight and handy rack
I have bought several of these for IEM, WL-mics, all sorts of smaller 1-2U electronics.
They are light weight, easy to carry and the quality is quite good. I would not recommend these for check-in luggage on an airplane, but for carry on and general touring they are great!
