Thule Pulse Large Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Matte Black
Excellent car top carrier (not that I've had many to compare it to). Easy to install and remove, sturdy, and fits well on our Toyota Siena. Opening it is a little tricky, as sometimes the top sticks to the bottom a bit. Adds a lot of extra storage to our car, great for when we go camping. Great experience with etrailer.
Excellent roomy cargo box. My wife’s luggage even fit (see photo). Fit the top of my Forester like it was meant to be there and the hatch opens without obstruction. Great shipping by etrailer.com via Estes freight shipping (almost overkill on shipping).

Yakima RocketBox Pro 14 Rooftop Cargo Box - 14 cu ft - Black
I've taken one 1500 mile trip so far with the Yakima RocketBox Pro 14 mounted on my RAV4. I found the box to be quiet and not to have much impact on gas mileage. I lost maybe 1 mpg with it mounted to my flush mounted Whisperbars. I drove through some very heavy rain and had a minimal amount of water inside under a thin rubber mat I had placed on the bottom of the box; none on my luggage got wet. This box works great to give me more carrying capacity when traveling with my two crated Dobermans.
Perfect fit on my 2014 Jetta Sportwagen. Lets me accomodate my lighter weight camping gear and leave the heavier stuff in the car. Very secure and aerodynamic and had very little impact on my mileage. My only issue was I could never find the serial number on my rocketbox.

Rhino-Rack Zenith MasterFit Rooftop Cargo Box - 14 cu ft - High Gloss Black
I just ordered my 2nd cargo box from e- trailer. I really like this box and have ran it on multiple vehicles. Definitely recommend
This was a great experience from start to finish. etrailer: After placing the order, I called regarding shipping and quickly got the answer to my question. The box shipped by ground freight, and arrived almost a week before the original scheduled delivery date. The Rhino arrived perfect with protective wrap, and all the required parts. Rhino Rack: This thing is awesome. Unless you jump up into the $1000+ price point, your rooftop carrier options are limited. My two requirements were to fit my skis (181 & 183 cm) and to allow my tailgate to open fully. The Rhino delivered! Bonus that both baby strollers fit as well (Instep baby trailer and Vista Uppababy). Only a week in, but so far the Rhino box and MasterFit clamps seem solid. The ratchet/locking mechanism on the clamps is just ok, you don't have to twist too hard to over power the lock or feel like you are stripping something internally. The hinges are beefy, but don't take up a ton of storage space. It opens from both sides, and you can't remove the key unless it's locked, which is nice for those of us that don't enjoy picking up our stuff on the highway. Also, if you're like me and spent way too much time on mr-box.com, you'll be pleased to know that this thing doesn't look lame. It's pretty sleek, somewhat low profile, with a touch of Euro. It's not too wide, even on the narrow rails of the A4 Allroad there's extra bar space. I could probably squeeze an upright kayak rack, small ski pinchers, or for the ten of us in the world that own RoadShowers...the RoadShower 4 fits no problem. I definitely recommend a Rhino from etrailer.

Thule Pulse Medium Rooftop Cargo Box - 14 cu ft - Matte Black
I can see why people consider the box a bit flimsy, especially when you do not have it secured to the car and nothing is inside. That’s normal. For this to weigh 34 lbs and yet to be wall sturdy and provide waterproof conditions that the bag cannot, it has to be lightweight. Once we attached it to the car at 4 points, it wasn’t going anywhere and was instantly sturdy. I wouldn’t roughhouse with the locks or opening it up and down with force however. Also, 14 cu for a sedan is plenty. Anything larger and you are looking to push the limits.
Bought this box to hold camping gear while on a cross country road trip. You can put quite a bit of stuff in it. Held securely to roof rack and kept contents dry. I liked that the key could not be removed if lid wasn’t completely closed. Minimal affect on gas milage.

Yakima GrandTour Premium Rooftop Cargo Box - 18 Cubic Ft - Gloss Black
Used this box on a 2014 Subaru Outback on a 1,000 mile round trip. The fit was perfect, easy to install. It does require two people to lift onto and off the roof racks. No noticeable noise or humming while driving. The space was adequate for our needs, and we used lashing straps (the cargo tie-down points came in great here) to help prevent shifting. Lots of rain on this trip, but everything in the box was perfectly dry.
Item arrived broken still waiting on support highly recommend open the box before accept the delivery

Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box - 11 Cu Ft - Matte Black
my rooftop carrier! It was perfect for our golf clubs. etrailer was wonderful. Great communication and it arrived on expected date.
It was what I expected with a feature that I didn't expect. The quick mounting clamps make it very easy to attach.

Inno Ridge Rooftop Cargo Box - 8 cu ft - Gloss Black
Amazing box. We added it to our lambo for rallies. Used sea sucker mounts.
So I really needed something that was both small but still had lots of room to fit on top of my ND Rf Miata and this was the perfect size. So the method to attach it is quick and pretty easy and I'm able to do it myself without really needing a second pair of hands which is convenient.

Inno Wedge 660 Rooftop Cargo Box - 11 cu ft - Gloss Black
Super easy mounting system. We like the low profile; it still fits skis and snowboards for 4 ppl no problem! Looks great on our Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. Minimal wind noise (any roof box is going to have that). We throw an old rubber yoga mat in the bottom to prevent stuff slipping inside and that works great.
Very easy Transaction. Highly recommended

Inno Box 320 Rooftop Cargo Box - 9 cu ft - Matte Black
Love my Inno roof box. I had the top shell paint matched and love the way it looks. It’s not too big/long and just big enough to hold a spare wheel/tire, jack and emergency gear. Also very happy with customer service at e-trailer; my box arrived with minor shipping damage and they were very responsive to take care of it. Lastly, I researched and shopped around A LOT and hands down, e-trailer has the best prices for virtually all roof box brands and models.
Perfect size for 4 snowboards. Bought this to get the boards out of the truck. Didn’t want something too big. I love that it is a matte finish and very simple. After adjusting my cross bars it was pretty easy to install and remove. Looking forward to taking it to the mountains.
What our customers are saying:
"I received my cargo carrier today. I ordered the 52018 and I just put it together and put it on my 1996 Land Rover Discovery. I must say, the fit and finish is AWESOME! I slid it into the trailer hitch receiver and then stood on the center beam and the carrier acted as if I weren't there. I can now take my family of five to Florida in our new Land Rover and carry all of our luggage and SCUBA gear. Thanks for the great product at a great price and with great service."
