Looking for recommendations on a cheap 6U or larger rack (alien.top)

I have started to acquire parts for my home lab and would like it to be rack mounted. I would like it to have a 6U rack, 19", and it to be black. Not only that, but I would lie to spend a maximum of £60. If anyone has any good recommendations, I would love to hear them.

For that price.. have you considered the Ikea LACK end tables yet?

I personally use this for my servers. These end tables just so happen to perfectly fit rack mounted servers. I stack two of them. They're called "lack racks." Here's a pic but you can find more online as well:
