Thule Pulse Large Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Matte Black
This was purchased off of the etrailer.com website as a "damaged" item at a significantly reduced price. The description on the website described the damage very well and the cargo box has no functional issues of any kind. Also, the cargo box arrived much earlier than I anticipated. Furthermore, when I noticed that the box arrived with the load securing straps missing I emailed etrailer customer support and they had Thule send me two new ones right away. Couldn't be more pleased with etrailer and this cargo box. It fits my 2014 Honda CRV with factory crossbars with just a little bit of rear hatch interference (restricts opening by maybe an inch or two, but can still fully use the rear hatch). Can't speak to durability quite yet as I've only used the cargo box a few times to transport skis and snowboard and plan to use it year-round for road trips. A really great, simple cargo box!
This was a much needed addition for a drive back to Tucson, AZ from a three month stay in Portland. ME, as we had acquired some extra things and needed more space than our 2015 Honda CRV provided. This fit on top of the rhino vortex aero roof rack I also purchased from e-trailer perfectly. The cargo box functioned as expected, and although we ultimately could have used a slightly larger cargo box, this one worked great for giving us extra space in our car for the drive home. It was easy to mount and opened easily, although it was a bit tricky to load, a step ladder would have helped. It was tough to close, we had to move some stuff around to get it to latch, but I appreciated that it would not lock unless the latches could fully engage, which made me feel like it was going to remain closed while traveling. We wasted no time putting stickers on it, and added more along the drive home, which was fun. We traveled through many different types of weather, it was late spring and was rainy in the beginning of our trip, and very hot towards the end of our trip, and the contents were in perfect condition when we arrived home. There was zero water damage inside, and nothing was damaged from being in the heat. Of course there was some reduced gas mileage and added road noise when traveling, but nothing too unbearable. Also, service and shipping from etrailer was excellent.

Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 22 cu ft - Black Glossy
We love our Thule rooftop box. It's a great accessory to our Honda Pilot, and made our frequent skiing & camping trips a lot easier. Quality is superb. For its size, it's actually relatively easy to mount (takes two people to lift it up). Loading/unloading requires standing on the frame of the car and is also easier with two people.
So I just received my 22cuft Thule rooftop carrier and it arrived somewhat damage free. The edges of the box where the nose and rear of the carrier were packaged very well with extra material. The center of the box was smashed and had several holes. I know the holes are not e trailer fault but actually the shipping company that sends it across the country. There was a removable plastic film on the carrier that I think helped a lot and kept the unit from being scratched. One area on the back lifted and now I have a small area that I need to wax and buff because it was scratched from the box. Overall I knew the risk in shipping an 8 foot box and just took the gamble. Overall it turned out ok. I placed the carrier on my 22 kia telluride with factory bars. It fit perfect. The locking system worked and was secure to the bars on the roof. Both sides of this 22 cu ft carrier opened flawlessly and there is going to be plenty of room to place luggage inside. I’m glad I went with the 22 because I think I would have wanted a bigger one if I got the 18. My issues are not skis and tents but actual luggage when we all travel so the extra room is great. Have not traveled with it yet and if I have issues after the first trip I will edit this review. So far I am satisfied with this purchase, etrailer and this product.

Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box - 11 Cu Ft - Matte Black
It was what I expected with a feature that I didn't expect. The quick mounting clamps make it very easy to attach.
Great size box, the latching function is very particular though, you have to be able to completely close it with no resistance or it won't lock. It sounds annoying but it's a very good indicator that the box is secure and won't fly open on the freeway. We've used it for cross country trips and it's held up great, not much noise from it, a little but nothing that was too annoying. Definitely worth the money for extra storage.

Malone Roof Box Review - 2019 Chevrolet Suburban
Adam: Hi everyone, Adam with etrailer.com, today we're going to be taking a look at the Malone Cargo12 Rooftop Cargo Box on our 2019 Chevrolet Suburban. So this cargo box is going to be ideal for getting any type of sporting equipment or luggage for around two people. It does have 12 cubic feet of space, so it's going to be ideal for those rather larger items. And it does open up on the passenger side, and the reason for that is. Just imagine if you're going on vacation and you pull over to the side of the highway, your driver's side is going to be next to vehicles going about 65 miles an hour, so having it open up on the passenger side is for your guys' safety, and that's definitely something I am very happy about.So just so you guys know, I did get the skis in here. It is at the deepest part of the cargo box, and it is a very snug fit.
Rhino-Rack Master-Fit Rooftop Cargo Box Review - 2014 Chevrolet Suburban
Today on our 2014 Chevrolet Suburban, were going to be test fitting the Rhino Rack Master Fit Rooftop Cargo Box, with 14 cubic feet of storage space in silver. Its part number RMF400. With our factory roof rack on our Suburban, were going to begin our test fit by placing our cargo box directly onto our crossbars. Well take a quick look to be sure we have our box centered. Well then open the passenger side, reach in, and were going to place two of the foot packs to the two slots located on the floor of the box on this side. As we do this, well want to be sure they go around our crossbars.
What our customers are saying:
"The carrier works and fits great with my electric scooter."
