Pulled it out of the box and strapped it to the top of my Suburban the day I got it. Filled up the bag with a linen closet full of blankets and pillows. whoo-hooo!69514

This product was just okay. It served us well enough but it's not near as roomy as it might seem - 2 carry-on suitcases, a large Cabela's duffel and a small bag were about all it could hold. The tabs on the zippers tore off the first time we tried to zip it up and whatever it is made out of is incredibly stiff when it is cold. That all said, it did keep our stuff dry and secure. I just wish it were bigger.66829

Recently took this cargo bag on a 16 hour road trip. It kept contents safe and dry in some horrible weather conditions. Wiped clean when I returned home. Great product and great service from etrailer.com63825

Carried Christmas presents 1500 miles. Very good protection against all weather conditions. Tie downs are very sturdy. Everything made it in good shape, even though was tied down in a hitch luggage carrier. I recommend as a relatively low cost carrier.62556

We just used this carrier bag on a 1400 mile trip. It was a life saver with the extra room and security. Everything stayed clean and dry. It was so much easier to load than than using the tarp as in the past,.51553

Nice, big bag, fit well in my cargo carrier (it was a little bigger than the inner dimensions of the carrier so I couldn't pack it completely full). It rained for 2 hours during my 4 hour trip and there wasn't any moisture in the bag when I opened it up. 36130

Product is solid. Used it this past weekend for a trip to Chicago and Back from Detroit. Monsoon weekend. Kept all luggage dry and comfy. Seems durable, nice zippers and seams. Straps are a bit of a pain, a couple of Bungee cords are quicker and easier to secure and take off in the pouring rain ;> 27747

We received the bag along with our carrier in very good time. I was immediately impressed with bag quality. We are using on a Honda Element. The carrier and the bag fit neatly and allow for clear view of the tail lights and access to the upper part of the door. We will take our first road trip in a few weeks to give the full test. I was very impressed with the price, delivery and follow up by etrailer. Thank you all!24537

Used this with a cargo platform on a Corrolla for a 2000 mile vacation recently. Great value for the money. It kept our contents dry through periods of rain, did not seem to collect alot of road dirt, and the straps were holding without adjustment once it was loaded. The zippers worked smoothly. Overall the bag seemed to be well made and it should serve us for future trips as well. This turned out to be a great solution for four adults to travel in a smaller car (better gas milage) with a tiny trunk. Without this, there was no way we could have taken enough clothes to last the entire 10 day trip. Just one word for the wise, know that smaller cars (like our Corolla) get a little light in the front end when weighted down in the back. This causes the car to be very steering sensitive at highway speeds. I had no trouble adjusting to the change in steering response, but less experienced drivers may consider a dry run, before leaving on a long trip. Be safe! 20335

This product works beautifully with the Surco 20x48 hitch carrier. Although I didn't experience any inclement weather on my recent camping trip, I have no doubt that things would have remained dry, given the construction of the bag and materials used. The bag held a lot of firewood and a 50 qt cooler. Great investment!19477

Quick delivery - ordered Monday morning, received Thursday afternoon - standard ground shipping. Used the next day on trip from Knoxville to Cincinnatti - fit perfect on Wel-Bilt cargo carrier from Northern Tool (~19" x 48" platform). Dry weather on trip, but construction and zipper cover looks like it would keep out any water from getting to contents. Third order I've had with e-trailer, and will continue to do business with them.11050

All I can say is WOW!! The products I ordered are great, the delivery was very fast, and the service simply amazing. Everything arrived very quickly just the way I ordered (the boxes leave something to be desired as they seem to really take a beating) and installation was very straightforward. The instructional videos on the etrailer website are very much appreciated. An excellent experience that I would recommend to anyone. Thanks again!!8999

Part 3 of 3 of my order. Ok, Hitch...check...Cargo Carrier...check...now the bag. A lot of space in here for the average traveler of 4. Very durable material with large zippers to protect everything inside. The velcro straps help keep any moisture from running up and into the zipper area. With 6 tie downs, this bag is really durable and safe. 8853

This bag is more than I expected. It is made from heavy durable material and looks like it will stand up to the nastiest of weather conditions on the road. Can't wait to road test it, we'll be using it a lot I think. It got here fast too. No problems what so ever. THanks6789

Even my wife said so Prior to our family trip I purchased the following items for my 2004 Hyundai Tiburon: Draw-Tite Class I Trailer Hitch Receiver #24726 20x48 Cargo Carrier Fits 1-1/4"" Trailer Hitch Receiver Hitch #6500 Rola Expandable Cargo Bag, 9.5 to 11.5 cubic feet #59102 Tiburons do not have a lot of cargo space, and mine has even less as I have 2 twelve inch subwoofers in an enclosure in the cargo area. I did the installation myself, which was easy, and the setup worked flawlessly. I was able to take luggage for two adults and two teens for a three day trip without stuffing items between the kids in the back seat and floor spaces. I could not even tell I had a cargo carrier on the back of the car. My fuel economy was not adversely affected because the carrier rides behind the car instead of on top where it would cause drag. I still had complete access to my rear cargo area via the lift back. This was one of the best purchases I have made, even my wife said so.4840

Five years and going strong As mentioned I've had this bag for about 5 years and love it. It is starting to show a bit of wear but has many years left. We use it to go to our Maine house almost every weekend in the summer and 1/3 as often in the winter. The zippers and straps are holding up fine and it keeps everything dry. We fill it up each trip. Minimal maintenance is required. Also love the rack I purchased with it.3346

Don't settle for less On a Thanksgiving '08 trip to NC, my wife and I along with our daughters family of 4, packed all of our clothes into this "Waterproof/yea right ?" bag. We loaded it onto the cargo carrier and away we went. The trip home was a "Total" rainout,North to South!! But when we got to the daughters house in Ohio, were we suprised. Not "ONE" drop of water on anything inside the bag. The soft sided cooler,also on the carrier, was soaked and full of water. Money well spent. Thanks etrailer !!!!! 1581

Should work great I have not yet used this with my carrier but it looks like it should work well. It is well thought out. The flaps over the zippers look like they will really keep rain out. Pockets inside work to keep the strap from getting lost.1321

I used the cargo bag on top of the car (on the roof rack) instead of using the bag in the rear of the car (on the trailer hitch). I was moving across the country (Massachusetts to Oregon) and needed a waterproof bag for extra stuff. I also have a hatchback, so having the bag in the back would not have worked. The bag itself was waterproof and durable (and kept everything dry for pretty much a week of driving through rain, hail and wind). Loading the bag on top of the car was a disaster because it essentially lost all shape when sitting on the cross beams of the roof rack. I ended up putting a plastic shelf in the bottom of the bag to give it structure (this would not be a problem if the bag is used how it is intended, on the back of the car). I would recommend this product to a friend.44840
