Best 2022 Subaru Forester Hitch Cargo Carriers

Hitch platform on my 2011 Subaru Forester. Thanks for the great service!!

Love it! We put it on a Subaru Forester, it is a bit heavy, but worked GREAT on our two week vacation. Packaging was good, had a few dents, but I am sure those won't be the last. Very happy with this purchase and the quality of this item.

Great carry all using it on my 1998 subaru forester and my 2008 cadillac dts to carry 5 gas cans to the station to be filled and I do not have to ride with them in the cars.

Bought to use on a 2016 Subaru Forester. I like the overall size. It's not as wide or wider than the Forester and I can still easily access the rear hatch. With the anti-rattle bolt, it is really stable. Now the reason for the 4 stars and not 5. I added some additional reflective tape on the side corners because at night, in a dark parking lot, it is not easy to see. But what is really annoying is the carrier is at the same height as the exhaust tip. I thought that if there was an issue with this there would be something in the reviews (which there was no mention of this being a possible issue). On a trip from southwest Ohio to Minneapolis I learned the hard way that this is a serious issue. The exhaust gasses melted a hole in the cargo bag I was using to protect gifts from the elements. Thankfully the condensation that built up in the bag kept the cardboard box the bag melted to from possibly igniting. Things were damp, but not ruined. For many vehicles, you will need an adapter to raise the carrier up and away from the exhaust. You could use a turn-down exhaust tip, but this may just make the hot gasses hit your cargo from a different angle. The second time I used with a Curt adapter with rubbermaid tubs and had no issues.

Our order came today and it was simple to put together. We had also ordered the light kit and was able to put them on the cargo rack with no problems. Only problem that we had was when we went to put it on my wifes Suburu Forester and couldn't put the pin in as the rack didn't go in far enough. When we had the receiver hitch installed on her car, they put one on that had a stop inside the hitch so you have to watch what racks and such you try to put on it. We just made a small knotch in the cargo carrier tube, but I didn't really like doing that, so we ordered a new correct hitch from e-trailer and will hopefully be installing that this weekend.

Good quality construction and materials. Easy to assemble.Works like it should.

Great cargo rack! Well made and strong. We modified ours to carry our ebikes on top of our generator and cooler. We've been from coast to coast with no problems.

Used it a hand full of times for camping with two different SUVs and its been great. Once over 2000 miles round trip. With the waterproof bag you can hold more gear since it goes above the side rails. Just be careful if your driveway slopes down you’ll lightly scrape the ground when backing out. And if you have a smaller suv or car make sure you center the heaviest items or it will feel it pulling back and forth on the freeway.

Fast delivery! My 10 year old son wanted to help. He ended up putting it together while I supervised. 25 minutes to assemble. We will use to free up space in our 09 Forester for a road trip.

I currently use this on my Xterra. It's sturdy, lots of places to hook tie-down straps and bungies. There's plenty of room to open the rear door with this in the down position (as long as I don't have tall items in the carrier). Handled cross-country trips without any issue. And it conveniently folds up out of the way when not in use.

Thank's Great service

I use this on my 2022 F250, when hauling my cab over. I was able to remove the folding part and attach it straight to my hitch to get it closer to the back of the truck. It’s light weight, decently sturdy, and easy to assemble.

Got the CC-100 for my travel trailer along with a lockable rattle proof lock pin and 20 Cu.Ft. etrailer cargo bag.I added some reflective tape on the back and sides. Ready to roll...

It is on my car and I'm very happy with it and it got here fast! Thank you!

Needed a lighter weight cargo carrier appropriate for a Subaru Forester. Liked the ability to use in a 1.5 or 2 inch hitch and the threaded hitch bolt that prevents unnecessary sway. Received my order in two days and assembly was a breeze. Perfect mate to the recently purchased hitch from etrailer.com. Another happy customer.

I found the 16#tork setting on the web site,but it should be included in the directions. I plan on using it to carry a tall propane tank to the refill station. I will be using the 1-1/4" only.

I bought this to haul stuff from the east coast of the US to Alaska. I didn't go direct - over 5000 miles with this. On some not so good roads along the way. It was rock solid. The tub with my stuff in it weighed 130lbs.

This trailer is really great. It arrived very quickly from Etrailer. It is very sturdy and high quality. I worked very well for carrying the cooler and extra supplies this weekend on the back of my Subaru Forester. I did have a mechanic put it together as I also had a hitch installed on the vehicle so I can't speak to the inital installation but removing it is simple. I will be getting alot of use from this.

This cargo carrier is sturdy. I didn't have any problems putting it together. I took with me on a trip to Kansas City with my kids to hold our luggage. I have two teen boys and we are running out of space in the car. It's been nice to be able to just throw some stuff in the cargo carrier instead of using our roof bag. The only thing that would make it better is if it had a lighting feature.

Ordered on a Sunday and carrier was on my porch by Tuesday afternoon. Great communication of order and delivery via confirmation emails. Finally assembled and tested it out on my Colorado. Fits well and seems durable enough for hauling what I intend. The anti-rattle device installed easily and will hopefully extend the carrier's lifetime. Unboxing to completion took approx 30 minutes. Very satisfied so far. Great customer service, as well.

Don't recommend this product for anyone wanting to transport a bike over 250lbs. It's two separate pieces bolted together, and after setup I didn't feel confident in its ability to hold my Honda ct110 just by the look of it. The bike's wet weight is 203lbs, and when I mounted my bike to this unit it didn't feel sturdy at all. The photos I included show where the four bolts easily started to concave, I didn't feel like I was over tightening. So, beware of this if you do get this product. After I knew this wasn't the product for me I did try contacting their customer service to see what they could do, but didn't hear back from them at all. So without any hope for a resolution, this ended up being donated to the local goodwill. Hope this helps others think twice about purchasing.

Survived multiple trips with my Svartpilen. I have thick offroad tires that do not sit down in the channels well, but most won't have that issue.

Perfect sized box for carry sized luggage and softball game day gear. Proven space saver. Receiver is showing signs of rust otherwise would be a ten. Would buy again.

Overall it's a great box. Love how much room it has and it's easy access. Slides out so van's rear doors open completely. Brake and turn lights improve visibility. Not waterproof but generally things stay dry. A couple of minor things: hole for lock was too close to the edge and pulled out so I drilled one on each front corner (more secure) - metal stays keep sliding out. I need to glue them in. I definitely would buy again.

The cargo carrier came exactly as billed. It was simple to put together and was perfiect for my first two dump runs.

packing box arrived damaged. content slightly damaged, contacted etrailers and no joke,received reply within minutes. settled for a reduced price, (my choice] great product and exceptional customer service. would recommend this provider and product anytime!

Unfortunately we can’t open rear of 2018 expedition with the top box in place. One of the knob locking pins is/was broken in shipping. I also wish all of the items were keyed the same. This whole setup is 5 keys. I’ll probably call a locksmith and have them all re-keyed if possible.

Easy assembly. Great design! Swing out feature is awesome to allow easy access to SUV liftgate. Extra storage space allows 5 or 6 people with luggage, golf clubs, tailgating equipment, etc. to travel together in one vehicle. License plate holder and light kit is a great accessory.

I've owned the cargo carrier for 1 year now. I put it on the back of my Subaru Forester and I haven't taken it off yet. It's so useful for so many things, vacations, delivering big packages and taking items to the landfill it was a good purchase for me

After purchasing a 2018 Honda CR-V Touring, my honey-to-do-task of having to bring trash to the dump every week must be done. I am not a big fan of placing trash inside my new car, despite having a rubber liner. So I purchased the Curt 2 inch receiver hitch and had it installed by my local mechanic. I did not want to have to hook up my small utility trailer to go to the dump since I have to go to work and park in a parking garage after making my trash drop off. I came across this Carpod M2205 walled carrier. I am thrilled with this and like the way it folds up when not in use. There was a simple assembly process to go through after it was received (quick shipping by the way). It is a little heavy placing into the hitch receiver, but note it is easier to place it into the hitch when folded up. I wrapped a piece of duct tape around the exact place of the insertion bar to line up the holes of the hitch pin. Its carrying capacity is well within what I need, and I am quite impressed. There is not much movement of the carrier while driving except for big bumps or potholes. This is an excellent alternative to carrying household garbage inside my new car. The walls are held in place with metal pins and a strap, that is a little short and could be a little bit longer. That would be my only complaint about using this car carrier. Otherwise, I highly recommend this for anyone who needs to carry items outside or to need more space.

Excellent service with etrailer and expeditious shipping! Couldn’t be happier and thank you!!! The model cats are not for sale sadly ??

This is a great cargo carrier with a lot of room, not too happy with the price. We are using this to transport wheelchairs and walkers. We can carry two wheelchairs and a rollater plus rugs, chairs, etc. The top is a clam shell that opens and closes easily once the latches are released. A couple things could be better. The very long power cable that brings power to the license plate light and brake lights has lots of slack when the carrier is not extended, but no way to control it. I've been looking for a spring that I could use to retract the power cable, yet give it some slack when the carrier is pulled out. The other thing is the pair of "locks" that apparently lock the carrier. The locks are flimsy and are not much more than another set of fasteners and would keep out only the most casual thief. Also, the lock between the carrier and the vehicle is very hard to reach, for both locking and unlocking; fortunately, the lock part can be pushed onto the rod while locked. A cable would be easier to deal with but would rattle while driving.
