I don't have this rack, but looking at it, I would say it looks like it's made well. I do like the fact that you can stack another one if you need to go 10 high.

One of the reasons I've never bought this type of rack is the shipping charge. $65 is a big additional cost. I would pick up a number of these racks if I found them at a reptile expo, and could get them home. Shipping on the 10 high rack is $95. That's some coin, it's aluminum, so it shouldn't weigh that much. Maybe it's the tubs?

Congrats!

The only thing i have a concern about using those racks.Is the snake rubbing its nose against the aluminum top(the tubs floor above its tub).I would think it could cause more damage to the snake when you make air holes in it.In my opinion i would not reccomend using them.

Size of the shipment can make a difference in cost also. I'm assuming they ship it assembled.

The tops in the racks linked are plastic, not aluminum. Even if it were aluminum, the holes would be ok as long as they were de-burred and powder coated.
