Reese 60x24 Hitch Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - 500 lbs Capacity - Glossy Black
Awesome product! easy to put together and carries so much gear without impacting gas mileage. I got the light kit so I can really load it but it rides so low with my Subaru Outback they're not really needed.
Very happy with purchase of cargo carrier. Arrived within week and less than 30 min to assemble. Installed on 2016 Suburu, used as cargo carrier, firewood carrier, and as kitchen counter while car camping. Did not block license plate or rear lights on car with cargo bag. Added reflective tape to back side.

Yakima LoadWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket - Steel - 44" Long x 39" Wide
I am very happy with both the initial quality of the Load Warrior and how nice the eTrailer people are to deal with... The product seems well thought out and there are a bunch of accessories to mount most anything...
This product fits my 2014 Subaru outback perfectly. It look like it was made for this vehicle. I actually believe this is the same rack you can purchase through Subaru with a faring that says Subaru instead of Yakima. It looks great and adds function and utility

Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 49" x 40" x 6" - 150 lbs
Others stated directions were hard to follow but my husband had it installed on my 2007 Subaru Outback Wagon in less than an hour by himself the only thing I helped with was lifting it up and off the roof of the car. I chose Thule because they stand behind their product. Thule is the best cargo roof basket available on the market and they back it up with a Lifetime Warranty! I have not had any cargo in it yet but have had it up to 75 miles an hour with no wind drag empty. There is a speed rating on this basket of 80 miles an hour so I wonder if the wind complaint reviewers are driving in excess of 80 miles an hour. No matter what vehicle you put it on it has a nice, sleek, sturdy appearance. From what I have researched the less expensive roof cargo baskets only have up to a 2 year warranty and are plagued by rust issues.
Excellent basket! Very well made. High quality equipment. Taking a star off because it should have included locking cores at the price.

Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket - 47" Long x 35" Wide - 165 lbs
Have not hauled anything since installed but it looks great and is solid. When at freeway speeds I can faintly hear the wind whistling through it but I expected that.

17x46 Curt Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
We're very happy with this purchase; it's spacious and easy to install. We have a Subaru Outback. Combined with a rooftop carrier, we were able to move all of our daughter's things into her college dorm in one trip!
Once it was together, I really liked it. It wasn’t that easy to put together and it required metric tools which I had to search for. It worked well and it was very useful.

Thule Pulse Large Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Matte Black
I purchased this cargo carrier about a year ago. I’ve taken it on 5-6 road trips covering multiple states in all kinds of weather. This rack has remained stable and I really like that you cannot leave it open without the key, which works well to ensure I don’t lose it. However, I gave the carrier a 4 as the rubber seal has come off a few times at the far attachment site and I have had a small amount of water get inside the carrier while traveling.
Love this Rooftop box! It's easy to install & remove, and very secure. It compliments our Outback, as well, in appearance.

20x47 Reese Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" Hitches - Steel - 300 lbs
This Reese Cargo Carrier worked great! Our adult daughter put it together herself with no problems. It worked great on the back of our Subaru Outback on our weeklong trip. We look forward to using it for many more years.
WELL WORTH THE EXTRA FEW $$$ I bought a Hidden Hitch for my Subaru Outback so I wouldn't be bashing folks shins. Problem is, with a regular basket, you have to crawl under to get the pin in. With this raised basket it is MUCH EASIER. It is also nice that it is custom cut for tail lights when I want to go that route. If you have a Class2 hitch - THIS IS THE BASKET TO BUY.

Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket - 41-1/2" Long x 37" Wide x 4" Deep - 150 lbs
I've had this roof basked for a year now, and it has done very well for us so far. I mount this to my 2023 Subaru Outback XT Onyx Edition for when we take family trips that require more gear than will fit in the cargo area. It allows my son to remain comfortable in the back seat (he's a sprawler with gadgets and books on long trips) while making sure that we have all the gear we need. On week-long trips to both Canaan Valley, WV and Lewes Delaware, we were able to strap our cooler and other weatherproof gear into the basket with ease. The mounting system is plenty sturdy, and the basket was able to fit a lot of cargo easily and safely. It didn't retain water in the tubes or connecting pieces after several rain storms, and I haven't seen any evidence of rust so far. I should note that I don't leave it mounted to the car 24/7 because I don't pretend to be some overland fanatic, so it lives in my furnace room (easily supported by aluminum brackets tap-conned into the cinderblock wall) when not in use. This will definitely give it a longer lifespan. I'd definitely buy one again. The size is perfect for my Outback and fits plenty of gear.
Nice looking carrier and holds a good amount of cargo. It would be nice to have a better mounting system that does not interfere with the bottom of the carrier. Overall, it fit our needs well.

Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket - 64-1/2" Long x 37" Wide x 4" Tall - 150 lbs
Easy assembly solid construction. My kit was missing two nuts. No big deal I have drawer full. Seems to be a heavy duty unit that will take some abuse. Leaving for a road trip soon will find out.
2016 Subaru Outback. Product fitment and instructions were amazing. Very easy to install and took almost no time at all. Probably close to 30 minutes or so. Very pleased. If you're considering this product, I would recommend giving Greg a call. He helped me out tremendously.

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.

Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box - 11 Cu Ft - Matte Black
if the box could slide up another inch the hatch would clear the back of the box. I have a 2017 Subaru Outback. I just received the box today and have not taken it out on the road.
my rooftop carrier! It was perfect for our golf clubs. etrailer was wonderful. Great communication and it arrived on expected date.

19x47 Curt Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Steel - 300 lbs
i purchased this last week to help keep the inside of my Outback clean. my husband put it together while watching tv, so assembly was easy. so far it has been used to take yard debris to the transfer station and to pick up bags of gravel and top soil. it seems very sturdy as long as you tighten the bolt with a ratchet--otherwise it is a little wobbly. we have an old thule bike rack with the same issue, so we keep a ratchet in the car. it does not weigh too much, so storage and on-and-off is easy.
Excellent value and utility. Clear and easy instructions. Assembly was quick. Great that it fits on both a 1-1/4 or 2-inch hitch. The accompanying threaded hitch pin keeps carrier wiggle free. Only suggestions—Secure bright orange poles (or other hitch aligner sticks) on back ends so you see them in your rear view mirror and drivers behind you are alerted to your extension. I bolted mine on through a side hole and used a cable tie to keep them from rotating. And for those concerned, get a short cable lock for security. Thread it through the receiver chain slots and one of the side holes of the cargo carrier.

Curt 60x24 Hitch Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - 500 lbs Capacity - Matte Black
Product fits just right on our 2011 Subaru Outback. Combined with the anti-rattle lock and etrailer cargo bag; a great combination. Rain and snow and no leaks. Just right...
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.

SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box - Roof Mount - 18 cu ft - Black
After a year of dependable use the SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box continues to perform to my needs, wants, and expectations. The 2 attributes that shine the most are ease of access/cargo loading (rear access vs. side) and ease of off/on (lightweight and access to the U-bolt hardware). While the overall quality of the materials and hardware are not quite "Excellent", they're darn close. For my needs I'm very happy with this cargo box and the price point makes it a better option the the more expensive brands. It may not be as cool and groovy as a Th*** or Yak*** box but it gets the job done.
The Roof Box was as described and fit great -- Nice. Shipping however was not good, trucker dropped it and the skid at the foot of the driveway -- It looked like it had been crushed and dropped. There was some slight damage, but we accepted it as complaining would be more trouble than it is worth. E Trailer should vet their carriers better -- no care taken with this shipment.

24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - Tilting - Folding - 500 lbs
I haven't tested the cargo carrier yet, but this review is for etrailer customer service. After receiving the carrier, the square piece that goes into the hitch receiver was out of square, so it wouldn't go in. We need the carrier to head out of state to visit for Christmas and are leaving tomorrow morning 6am. After calling etrailer, they expedited shipping and the new part arrived today, even though tracking said tomorrow (which would be too late for our trip)! Thank you etrailer for saving Christmas!!! More review to come after the trip!
Love it! Fits perfectly to my Outback. No issues opening hatch and it folds up perfectly to keep me moving once I’m unpacked at the beach. Heavy duty construction too.
How to Install: Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Rooftop Cargo Box on your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon
Hi everyone, Aidan here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 rooftop box and seeing how it fits on our 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon. So one thing I do wanna note is that this roof box does work with your factory bars. That's how we have it installed today. You can totally use it with aftermarket crossbars if you have those too. But since your Outback probably is gonna come with factory raised rails and these factory crossbars it is important to know that it fits because a lot of crossbars from the factory are a lot thinner and sometimes don't work with as many accessories.
How to Install the Flint Hill Goods Roof Cargo Basket on a 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon
Hi everyone. Aiden here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Flint Hill Goods roof cargo basket and seeing how it fits on our 2022 Subaru Outback. So any sort of roof-mounted carrier is gonna be an excellent option to get some extra stuff with you on your trip. Whether you're looking to make extra leg room for your passengers inside or there's just not enough room for the stuff you have, up top is the next best place to put it, especially if you've got the factory crossbars, which a lot of these Outbacks do have. This is gonna work excellent with those factory crossbars, which is good to know, because with those thinner bars, a lot of times other accessories may not work with them.
Setting up the Inno Shadow 16 Rooftop Cargo Box on your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon
Hi everyone, Aidan here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Inno Shadow 16 Rooftop box and seeing how it fits on the top of our 2022 Subaru Outback. So I do wanna point out right away that we are using this with factory crossbars. That's pretty important to note because sometimes factory crossbars will have a lower weight capacity than aftermarket ones and generally they're gonna be a lot smaller, so fitting certain accessories is going to be a bit more difficult. So if something works with factory crossbars which a lot of these Subarus have, it's good to know because you wanna make sure the accessory you're looking at works with those. Now it's gonna work just fine with aftermarket crossbars too, pretty much anything will but with these ones you wanna know that it's working with those.

How to Install the Yakima SkinnyWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket on a 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon
What's up everybody, it's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're going to checking out the Yakima Skinny Warrior rooftop cargo basket, on our 2022 Subaru Outback wagon. The Skinny Warrior fits nicely on your Subaru factory roof rack, that's what we're using today. Now the one thing is that since there's not a much overhang, there's not a lot of space up here on the roof rack, but you can see the Skinny Warrior fits up there with room to spare, So it's nice that it doesn't take up that much space and the open space on this side over here, you could add probably a bike rack on there, or maybe a ski care or something like that, that way you can maximize the capacity of your roof. All things metal, black powder-coated steel, so you don't have to worry about if you want to just leave it on your roof all the time, it's going to be all right, the elements aren't going to bother it. Now it mounts with these clamps here, and they go, so what you do is the hand knobs and you just loosen this.
Does the Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket Suit Your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon
What's up everybody It's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna be checking out the Yakima off-grid on our 2022 Subaru outback wagon.

It's a good option, just because if you have the open design here on the outside, plenty of room to run those straps and tie down your cargo. It's open up on the back side too. It's got the wind visor, wind deflector on the front that you can't remove.

What our customers are saying:
"The trailer hitch mounted cargo carrier is an outstanding accessory. It allowed us to bring so much more on vacation. The side rails made securing things really easy and the auxiliary taillight kit plugged right into my plug. The service was so great that I just ordered a trailer hitch cover for the winter. Thanks!"
