Hetzner dedicated servers alternative in US

At present we are using Hetzner AX101/AX102 dedicated servers. They are of great value for money. What provider would you recommend in the US? I understand it may not be as good value for money as Hetzner but hopefully as reliable and performant.

I'm not up on non-Hetzner physical machine rentals ... but I am curious: why are you looking for a different vendor?

Not OP, but I believe Hetzner may not have dedicated options in US DCs.

Yeah, US is only for cloud products at the moment

OVH has a US West Coast datacentre that is probably going to be the most similar: https://us.ovhcloud.com/bare-metal/prices/

They were the only provider I could find to match my Hetzner SX64 specs for less than 2x the price.

How is your experience with OVH?

Correct. This is the only reason.

Really? I don't find them to be of a good value at all. Not just bandwidth but also the baseline network speed limitations based on EC2 size.

Eh I only have 2 servers with them. I had difficulty with one becoming unresponsive right after setup, but after grabbing a replacement I’ve had no issues with them for the last year.
