    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Vision CB 70 Racks - Any good?

I saw the Vision racks in person at Daytona and they are absolute crap. Cheap plastic garbage in my opinion. I can't imagine that ANY big breeder is using these, regardless of how much Vision is paying them to say they are.
 
I got a chance to see them up close and personal.
Even though vision has great customer service, these racks are not as nice as they looked on their site.
It just didnt look (or feel) like they will last very long.
I ended up getting a few more racks from Casey and ordering an AP 10 slot one as well (went with the new rounded corner design).
 
I had seen them once, but heard there were some revisions...I was hoping that the new improved version was better. Oh well...(sigh)

I've been considering the AP 10 slot also...but that is for another thread, lol

While its a bit more, I would look at the ARS 7010. Real breeder quality racks. I am thrilled with them...
 
believe me, I am looking at them. The main problem is the delivery issues - I haven't figured out a good way to meet their suggestions shipping to a business with a dock). Did you have them delivered to your home? If so - if you don't mind telling - how much did shipping come to?

I am not so much looking at them for the 70 series tubs, either...my current setup has an 8ft tall, 35in wide melamine rack, that is just as heavy as you would imagine. BUT, it will hold 28 comparably sized sterilite tubs. For me to replace it with the 7030 model, I would have to remove my other rack...which holds several levels of of 28 qt sterilites, as well as 4 of the huge ones (the ones they market for Christmas storage - these may be replaced by more 4x2x1 cages, allowing for a few more shelves of 28). I'm looking for something that will house tubs comparable in size to the sterilite 28 qt

I had it delivered via Greyhound and picked it up at the local terminal. Total cost was $100. The 7010 was 5 boxes and pretty easy to get home.
 
yeah, I saw that in your initial post (the review), right after I submitted that
oops

Haha...No problem! It actually worked out well. My decision was between Freedom Breeder and ARS. FB charged $200 more for the product and they wanted $250-$300 for shipping. Big difference...
