Thule Interstate Rooftop Cargo Bag - Water Resistant - 16 cu ft
I really like this bag. Fits basket! And you can stuff a lot into it. Not hard to take on and off. We did not have any issues with rain either!
The waterproof outer shell quickly (after a couple months) developed small holes/cracks that slowly seep water in the rain. The bag therefore lost its water resistant feature. Otherwise the bag is easy to install, lightweight (compared to hard shell alternatives), and I found it reasonably easy to access, open, and close. Before the small holes, the bag was water resistant. I took it on a trip in the rain and there were no leaks.

Rightline Gear Car Back Carrier - Waterproof - 13 cu ft - 40" x 20" x 28"
I have a Nissan NV 200 cargo van. This lets me carry stuff without being cartop and reducing mileage and in lieu of little trailer to reduce speeds to less than interstate highways. It it can ride high enough that the backup camera is not blocked. This appears to be WELL MADE. There was no cartop carrier so I have fasteners 300# rated with SS bolts to the factory provisions for a carton carrier. Just use rated carabiner to attach straps.
Love this bag! We load all our snowmobile gear in it and put it in the bed of our pick up truck. Keeps it dry during our driving trip and it’s only one trip to/from Truck to motel room. Great investment !

Rhino-Rack Rooftop Cargo Bag - Waterproof - 12 cu ft - 47" x 37-1/2" x 11-1/2"
We run a private SUV service in Colorado and just purchased our third Rhino Rack RRLB 350. This rooftop bag offers 12 cubic feet of capacity and has been used in several wet weather conditions without a single issue. This bag has kept our clients personal belongings dry in every storm, period. This 350 Model will easily hold two LARGE suitcases and one medium suitcase. If you need to hold more than that, there are two other models that offer more capacity than the 350.
Excellent product, completely waterproof. Bag was easy to install with adjustable straps everywhere. Bag compresses nicely after your items are inside. Very happy with the product!

Rhino-Rack Rooftop Cargo Bag - Waterproof - 17.5 cu ft - 59" x 43" x 11-1/2"
A well built and sturdy cargo bag, lotsa room for luggage and equipment. Super easy to follow instructions and video.
Had it on top of our Jeep for a 6 month roadtrip. Kept stuff dry and pretty clean. The desert dust didn't get in to bad. We did use vacuum seal bags to help to keep stuff dry and no dust.

Curt Cargo Bag for Roof Basket - Waterproof - 21 Cu Ft
Extremely satisfied with this product. Curt was the only brand that promoted “waterproof”, not just that but it was the exact size that was needed. Just finished a 2000+ mile trip to Michigan’s UP. We went through a few “toad stranglers” w/o a drop of moisture within the cargo bag. The bag is made of quality coated fabric. The zippers & seams are heavy duty & withstood the high demand of accessing cargo while on the road. Cannot comment on the tie down straps that came w/ the bag b/c we did not use them, using ratchet straps was a little more familiar to secure the bag to our roof basket. Over all a 5 star product. Would purchase again in a heart beat.
One year update: Still love this cargo bag. Its really well made and still looks new after a year of traveling. Its definitely water proof and has kept our luggage dry through some strong southern US storms.

CargoSmart Rooftop Cargo Bag - Waterproof - 15 cu ft
Great product ! Kept my packages dry through a pretty intense thunderstorm.
The bag is excellent but the straps and in particular the snap buckles are cheap pieces of crap. We just returned from vacation and all but two snap buckles failed. I could change out the snap buckles but they are sewn into the fabric. If the buckles were good this bag is great.

Rhino-Rack Rooftop Cargo Bag - Waterproof - 8.5 cu ft - 43" x 31-1/2" x 11-1/2"
So I think this bag is very well built, tough as nails. I’m taking it out on my first road trip in a couple of days. I am not using it as it is advertised. I am putting it on a hitch rack. It fit very nicely. Obviously I have a camper van and I’m not putting this on the roof. I will say that the straps are a little tedious. I will send along pictures, but I suspect I will have no issues with it at all. I will probably add my own straps.
It looks and feels like it will do the job! I bought this luggage bag for the recent purchased Rhino-Rack XTray small roof basket. It arrived quicker than originally promised. Unlike the roof basket the luggage bag was boxed well and not damaged in transit like the roof basket was.

Rhino-Rack Rooftop Cargo Bag - Waterproof - 7 cu ft - 55" x 19-1/2" x 11-1/2"
I have had this for a year. I put this on the roof of my teardrop camper and went 15000 miles in 14 weeks. We went from New Hampshire to Alaska. This served the purpose well. It got drenched and wet inside until i figured out it was me. The zippers have a cover and when I cinched it down the cover pulled up. After addressing that, I had no more issues with things getting wet or water getting in. That being said, we did not carry things like towels in here. it was for our camp chairs, axe, our clam shelter and other odds and ends. worked well. I am gladd I have it. very durable would buy it again
Overall I am very pleased with the cargo bag. We did experience leakage after a rain storm however when it was unloaded and laying flat on the car roof. Water leaked through the zipper teeth but I don't think there is any way to avoid that hence the 5 stars rating. Since then I make sure the edges are tucked under so water can't seep in. It's made of tough material and I'm very happy with it's performance.

Rightline Gear Sport 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag - Waterproof - 15 cu ft - 44" x 36" x 19"
We drove from Texas to oregon and back with this bag on top of our 2014 Ford Taurus. Along the drive, there was super hot weather, and some crazy storms in the TX panhandle and it worked great - kept everything dry. The car has a moon roof and I was worried the weight would hurt it in some way - crack the glass, cause leaking some how - but it didn't. We had to stop occasionally to tighten down the straps but it was never serious. The eye holes on the zippers are large enough you can put a small lock through it to keep it safe when you are away from the car for short stops, such as at restaurants. When we stayed in a hotel, we would take the bag off and put it in the cab of the car. Something you couldn't do with a hard shell! We put 4 carry-on size suitcases in it and two big pillows and there was still plenty of room for more. I weighed it afterwords and I think we had a total of around 50 lbs in the bag. All-in-all, this is a really good bag.
This rooftop cargo bag worked great! I drove over 400 miles, at highway speeds, and it did not budget! The video on the etrailer website on how to set up the cargo bag was excellent. I made sure the straps were right, and had a car w a roof rack, so installation was super easy. My trip with this carrier was a success!

Rightline Range 3 Rooftop Cargo Bag - Water Resistant - 18 cu ft - 48" x 36" x 18"
Easily fits three carryon bags laying down or four side by side with space for smaller items. Check out your car's rooftop weight capacity.
Great price and wonderful customer service. I received an email from a real person when it shipped and another when it arrived. I have called their customer service before when I purchased another product and needed support to install it (trailer hitch), they spoke to me for 20 minutes and walked me through the process step by step.
What our customers are saying:
"Very easy process, good prices and my products were shipped on time and were delivered on time. The instructional videos online helped make installation easy!"
