Yakima DeepSpace 10 Rooftop Cargo Box - 10 cu ft - Black
Great solution for over the short bed on my Rivian R1T where my old roof box wouldn’t fit. The rectangular shape makes the most of the short length. I could likely fit two side by side over the bed if needed. Installation was fairly easy. I do wish the clamps were engineered to go on and off more easily. At each corner it requires two thumb screws on very long studs that come from underneath and then through a top plate, so 4 loose parts per corner have to come off to remove it. The build quality is fairly good but I guess I expected better for the price. Even the Yakima stickers are misaligned on the outside. It also says in the instructions that it comes with straps to hold down items in the box, but there were no straps included with mine. Overall it will definitely get the job done and a perfect fit over my truck bed, with only minor quibbles.
It's just flimsy and the way the bolts come up from the bottom, on narrower square bars the bolts protrude into the storage area and will not allow you to lay anything flat - without suffering scratches. They make rubber caps for this but that's not a solution. The bolts need to be trimmed to fit. For the price, you'd think they'd provide different sizes to have better fitment. It serves it's purpose and was the biggest over truck bed box I could find - i really wish there were more sturdy options.

Trunx Rooftop Cargo Carrier - 9 cu ft - Black
Customer service goes a long way in my book and how an item is presented on its website I've boughten stuff from etrailer before for my prior truck and always had an amazing experience with Etrailer.this is my first cargo box for my new to me Subaru Impreza sport hatchback and doing research on buying one wasn't easy but etrailer made the process quick and painless with exactly what I needed and dimensions were spot on and instructions were perfect couldn't be any more happier with my purchase.the trunx's brand box perfectly compliments my car and looks awesome on it thanks again etrailer you guys rock
Although I just received the Trunx Carrier, and it has been raining almost continuously here, I am impressed with the quality of the product. I still have to drill four new holes to mount the carrier, but you provide on your web site a great video specific to that job. I hope to get it mounted this weekend, and see how long my wife (who does all the driving) allows me to keep it on the van. We won't really use it until mid-April. That etrailer.com made it easy to find a carrier, and videos for our Chrysler 2014 Town and Country Van, gave us a secure feeling about the purchase. I just wish they were located a bit closer to Southern CA. Hope to add photos once it stops raining, and I am able to install the carrier.

Thule Sidekick Roof Mounted Cargo Carrier Box - U-Bolt Mounts - 8 Cubic Feet
Nothing like the Thule Box I bought in the 90's that carried 80 pounds of gear for 15 years out on top of the car without wearing or fading. This box is made of much thinner material, flexes too much, the bar attachment hardware is cheap, the plastic nuts quickly cross-thread and the rods are already corroding, locks are fussy. The box bends under modest loading; will not be buying Thule cargo stuff anymore.
This cargo box looks great on top of my Subaru. It was easy to install and it was very secure during my travels across southeast US. Had daughter, two teenagers, my dog, and myself traveling and the extra space was perfect. Cody O was wonderful during the ordering process over the phone and internet.

Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Black Glossy
I was hesitant to spend this much money on a cargo box that won't get used but a couple of times per year but I'm glad I did!! The quality of this box is excellent and it is really, really easy to mount. It is a bit awkward to carry for one person but with the help of another person it's very easy to carry and put on top of the car. The gloss black looks really nice and sleek. The 16 cubic foot capacity really opens up space inside our car and will make longer road trips much more manageable and comfortable. Being able to load the box from either side is a game changer! I also really like how it locks and how it has a notification if all latches are not engaged. As of writing this review, I have not actually tested it loaded or at highway speeds but I'm very confident it will perform as expected. Now I have to figure out how to store it!!
Came broken and obviously used already. Just like everything else in my order. Top was scraped up and cling wrap removed. Which I could have lived with. The front right hung was completely snapped off. Which for safety reasons is a big deal. So disappointed with etrailers quality for this order.

Trunx Rooftop Cargo Box - 18 cu ft - Black
Save your money and do not buy this product, it's poorly manufactured to say the least. 1), the plastic gauge is way to thin making the final product to flimsy. 2) while the order information asked me for make, model and year of vehicle it did not match factory rail specifications. The factory roof rack system for Honda CRV is not adjustable and the 22 inch spread identified for product does not work for Honda installed roof rack systems. 3) lastly, the hinge design on this unit is poorly designed and will not align without modifications to bend the tabs so that they properly align with the slots. Once again, do not waste your money on this product.
The roof top box is definitely big enough for my all my family's gear, planning a road trip out West that includes some camping along the way. The plastic was a bit flimsier than I had expected and I was NOT impressed with the PLASTIC clamps around the side. I'm not too worried of the lid flying off if a clamp or two breaks - the front of the box locks and there is a pin in the rear hinge - however, I'm packing extra rope just in case. It also appears that the rivets holding the rails and lock to the container are also made of plastic. I do a lot of camping, I'll likely update my review after putting it through a few runs.

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.
Pretty good. The locking mech is a little funky but it swallows the beach chairs and other sandy stuff no problem. Make sure you watch the videos Yakima has on YouTube. They are very helpful for first timers. I found that if you use the Yakima website to get the part list right you can order wherever you want. Yup can even pull into the garage. My only gripe is that etrailer showed all parts in stock but several pieces were actually back ordered. Luckily everything arrived in time for my trip.

Malone Cargo12 Rooftop Cargo Box - 12 cu ft - High Gloss Gray
I received the item in the description. Before I purchased the product I watched over and over the video on the site to see if the dimensions and looks of the product would fit my vehicle. After receiving it today I mounted it on my cross bars that I had and it fits like a glove. I noticed that the straps on the video are red and a bit larger but I received skinny black stripes not sure why the change. I like the color and it is spacious enough to accommodate what I will use it for. Good built and it sits well on the bars, it wasn't difficult to set it up, I like the way the brackets tighten up to the cross bars. My conclusion is: it is a well constructed cargo box and it is very big for the size to fit many vehicles. The price is also very competitive than many other brands. I was going to wait until after I could use it and then write a review, well I received an e-mail to help testify to it and for now this is what I have to write about it. I will further write more after a few months of use it will make more sense.
Ordered this and Malone Airflow2 roof rack crossbars for a 2023 forester. Ordered the airflow cross bar so I could get the cargo box as far above the roof as possible. I was worried about losing MPG and didn't want to create a big air dam. Just finished a 6,000 mile trip and only lost two MPG. Went from 36 to 34! Wind noise was a surprise as it was almost non existent. Great product and at a much better price than the competition...

Yakima CBX Rooftop Cargo Box Review - 2020 Jeep Gladiator
Hey everybody, welcome to etrailer.com. I'm Bobby and today we're taking a look at our Yakima CVX 18 roof box here on our 2020 Jeep Gladiator. So this is going to be an excellent way, guys. We're looking for something to give us a little bit more car room and really start protecting our items that we don't want to be interacting poorly with any kind of weather, getting them inside our box. Obviously leaving us a ton of room here in the bed of our truck and freeing up a lot of that room inside of our cab, making our trips that much nicer for ourselves. So as the title probably suggests we are going to have 18 cubic feet of storage in here, making it really, really great to go ahead and get a lot of our cargo needs.
What our customers are saying:
"We got the cargo bag and used it on the DrawTite cargo rack with no rails and took the whole load up and over the Smokey Mountains! What a fabulous product!"
