Gäng-Case Case Midas M32R PerforLine

First things first, the mixer didn’t fit. Or to be precise the mixer did fit, but the lid wouldn’t close.

There were a 1 cm gap due to a miscalculation or misplacing of the wooden support parts at the rear of the case. So the mixer was pushed too much forward.

I took the decision to keep the case and modify it to make a working product. The case weight was 12,1 kg when I received it, and after removing the unnecessary wooden blocks (700 g) and replacing them with a metal brackets and adding a 4 outlet powerstrip, I also got the weight down under 12 kg.

So keep in mind that this is not an especially light case, even though the product description tries to tell you otherwise. You can get a four handle case with a weight around 12,5 kg. And that’s just what this case needs, two more handles.

I also had to cut the foam padding for the mixer’s feet, they were just barely sitting on the edge of the padding making the whole mixer unstable. Now the mixer lies on it’s underbelly, and it is way more stable yet still maintaining the airflow.

I know it isn’t IP rated, but there are many places on the side railings where you can see unlaminated wood. So they skimped on the aluminium, and made the railings too short.

Few positive things are that it looks good (or it did, I chipped the plywood while drilling), and feels sturdy. Also it has rubber feet on the ball corners.

Overall, if you want a professional case, look elsewhere or be ready to spent time, effort and lots of beer.
