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).

Excellent quality, as expected from Thule. Fit and finish are first rate. Looking forward to a number of years of service.

This is a larger roof box, but it fit just fine on our Subaru Forester. Holds a lot of gear for camping, and it's long enough to carry cross country skis too.

The box is great, kept everything dry. No noise or rattle. Dont skimp out on a good set of rack bars. Easy install. Made it 3000 miles up the AlCan highway.

I replaced an old Thule box with this. My opinion is that the locking mechanism, the clamping system, and the hinges are superior to the Thule's. Especially the locking mechanism. I used to have to wrestle the Thule box to get things lined up so that I could close and lock the box. And the bonus is that this box was less money (than an equivalent Thule) and eTrailer shipped it for free!

Our SportRack cargo box has worked as hoped / advertised since we bought it over a year ago. What initially attracted me to this particular product was the size and design - it holds A LOT, and the way it opens from the back has helped protect our stuff from getting wet and damaged.

Our family of 4 took two trips with this box. One was a week-long driving/camping trip from Texas to Appalachian Mountains. It has plenty of room for sleeping bags/tent/chairs/misc. We drove about 80 mph on open highway, drove through rainstorms and had no problems. I have a 2013 Toyota 4Runner and needed to buy crossbars that fit my vehicle before installing the box. I learned not to leave loose clothing in the cargo box while driving on the highway. Small clothing can get sucked out of the small sliver of an opening created along the side while driving fast. Now I put towels, dirty clothes in a duffel bag to prevent this. Remember to avoid parking garages!

This box looks great and seems easy to assemble. I was looking for an 18 cu ft box that would fit both a 2016 Ford Fusion Energi and and a 2014 Subaru Forester and this box seems to meet our needs. I did have to drill a couple of extra holes in the bottom to fit the Fusion, but that's okay. Great product and great price. The support staff was awesome as well. Thanks Guys!

I used this with my 2014 Subaru Forester, yakima roof rack system. I traveled across country, from North Carolina to Arizona, with this on, and it worked great! I had it completely full. I didn't even realize it was on the roof! I would recommend this.

Yakima Roof Box Review - 2018 Subaru Forester
What's up everybody it's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna be checking out the Yakima GrandTour on our 2018 Subaru Forester. Now this is gonna be a rooftop box. Great for getting all that gear outside of your Subaru, and up on the roof, that way everybody's got more leg room on the inside, and they're happier on their adventures. Now this one happens to be 16 cubic feet and let's just hop up there and open it up. You got this nice, metal handle here.
2018 Subaru Forester Cargo Carriers Questions
- If your 2018 Subaru Forester has factory crossbars the Thule Motion XT Cargo Box part # TH629706 would fit directly without requiring additional roof rack components but if you do not have factory bars you would need to install an aftermarket set like the Malone AirFlow2 roof rack part # MPG215 which is a confirmed fit. This kit is very easy to install and you'd have no problem with it.
I attached an install video for this rack on a similar 2018 Subaru Forester as yours for...
view full answer... - We haven't tested this specifically on the 2018 Subaru Forester but I can tell you what to measure in order to determine whether or not the Thule Motion XT XXL Rooftop Cargo Box # TH629906 will fit on your roof and still allow you to completely open the rear hatch. You'll want to measure the distance from the center of your front crossbar to the line where the roof meets the rear cargo hatch; as long as this distance is 55" or greater then the XXL will fit without any issues....
