Heavy-duty cargo basket has a narrow design so you can transport gear while leaving room on your crossbars for bikes, boats, boards, or even a rooftop tent. Lockable, universal mounting system.

Great for storing long gear - easy to mount and looks great.
Made well, has held up great with no rust or other issues.
Would purchase again.
This Yakima Skinny rack splits roof duty with my Rhino Fishing Rack. Both quality items.
Great customer service!
Works great. Extra hardware included would be nice since the T-bolts are specialty. Does a great job not rusting despite me using it in the snow to haul sports equipment that likes to shuffle around and try to scrape paint off. It's really nice to be able to throw extensions in to lengthen it as well.
Rack was exactly what I expected. Excellent quality and very sturdy. Only drawback was the package with the T bolts and carriage bolts were not in the bag with the mounting brackets. etrailer took care of the problem immediately.
I’m very happy with the quality of both the roof basket and the Roadshower. The customer service as well as delivery were excellent! They look great on my truck and I’m ready to hit the open road.
The SkinnyWarrior allows me to carry extra cargo on the roof without hogging all the space (leaves room for my kayak and/or other items). I am using the SkinnyWarrior at its maximum extension and spacing - and it sags a bit in the middle. Otherwise, I would have given it 5 stars.
Perfect rack for my needs! And at discounted "used" price. Plus fast delivery. Thx etrailer!
Skinny warrior itself came it super useful for having any of our outdoor fabric or odd shaped items when we went on hikes. i have a frontrunner and while seems odd to be on a platform rack it fits fine with wrapping around the slats and just gave a bit of peace of mind when i wanted things to be protected by some form of "walls". think anyone who has things that might get wet or dirty and need it outside the vehicle. especially to dry, its gonna be a no brainer.
Great service fast shipping very easy at etrailer product was exceptional. Easy install with quality products

The roof rack is great I use it for camp gear, gas can, lumber it is indespensible
Hey there,
I absolutely love my roof rack system. It served me well last summer for multiple camping and mountain biking trips. Can't wait to use it on more adventures this year once the weather warms up!
I attached some pictures.
Thanks for being awesome.
This is the perfect rack for the 2021-2023 Subaru Outback Wilderness! Very Well Made! Perfect size without the extension, allowing the trunk to be opened without obstruction!
My only grievance is the knobs used to “lock” it down. I understand the reasoning of being able to have a tool-less removal, but I think most would prefer to have a bit more security INCLUDED, where the knob system can be used as a “key” then removed leaving just a three sided nut or something unusual that most folks don’t have in their toolkit. As it stands now, anyone can just see the knobs and figure out they can just unscrew and steal your set-up (see supportive pictures). My advice: Be prepared to take the $75 plunge and buy ONE SET of locking brackets. MY thoughts: you can probably get away with one set of two brackets to lock it down. I put mine diagonally, one in front and one in the rear to HELP protect the whole setup. Just my 2 cents!
With all that said, this is NO FAULT OF ETRAILER. They provided EXCELLENT Customer service and I received ALL THREE ITEMS ON THE SAME DAY (within 3 days of order) AND IN PERFECT CONDITION! A+++
This is a nice little basket. We keep it on the car year-round and only use it during the drier seasons. I haven't really noticed any wind noise unless the objects we placed in it are creating resistance. We originally used straps to secure our cargo but now we use bungee cords; it's just faster and easier. We keep a folding step stool in the car since neither me nor my wife are tall enough to access the basket without help.

A year later, the rack is still going strong. Its very useful. Also, we live in Seattle an theres no sign of rust.
I bought this warrior rack to hold accessories on top of my truck bed racks while on camping trips, or tour bags when I do side jobs so that they don’t slide around in the bed and allows easy access. Plus let’s be honest I think it just looks cool. It is very well-built and I am happy with my purchase.
Exactly what I was looking for!
Allows for multiple carrier options-

Everything I was looking for and more !
Just what I was looking for. Good quali ty
Quality is good. It does generate a little more wind noise than I had hoped, but it is not horrible.
The basket was delivered fast and received undamaged and no missing parts. Really a very clean, rugged looking piece of equipment. Easy to put together and install..,Just took longer than expected. Looks great on my Outback W.Edt.

After a full year of use, it’s an outstanding rack. Reliable and sturdy. Couldn’t ask for more.
With two people it took us less than 10 minutes to assemble and attach it too my 2017 Subaru Outback. It seems really high quality and was properly packaged and delivered promptly. I have never used e-trailers before but I will definitely revisit here for any further racks/ rack accessories that I need.

Still works great, I take it off and put it back on all the time with ease.
Nice quality rack and useful but had a few issues.
1. Hard to mount with fixed crossbars the available positions didn't work on my 2021 Pilot. I added the extension which changed up the possible mounting points and this worked out.
2. Not terribly noisy but definitely noticeable wind noise even at slow speeds like 40 mph. I wish the fairing was not so vertical I think that might help with the noise
3. Doesn't mount flat and level if you have a curved crossbar. So mine is leaning to one side and when I shim it then it becomes too high off the roof.
4. The yakima cargo net is low quality I returned two of them due to falling apart on the first time each was used. The outer sleeve slipped exposing the insides and the rubber lost its stretch and I didn't even load anything very tall.
Knew I wanted this Yakima rack and found it here at a slight discount. Shipping was quick and package arrive a little dinged up. Its a tough rack so luckily nothing was damaged beyond use. Just had to bend one of the connection pipes slightly but all assembled as instructed. Installed within 30 minutes and takes about 15 to either setup or remove from my Outback. I have my factory Outback bars stretched to their widest setting so the fit isn't perfect but the bumpers accommodate a little offset. Perfect fit for my roof-mounted mountain bike with this on the side. It remained solid with gear attached on 2 15-hour trips so far so I couldn't be happier with my pick. Great piece from Yakima and kudos to etrailer for the discount.
Great roof basket. Looks very nice on my yakima overland rack. Very easy to install. Would recommend buying the locks for this when you order one.
This rack is great quality and is built very well. Can’t wait to get it loaded up with gear and hit the hills..
