Yakima LoadWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket - Steel - 62" Long x 39" Wide
I just installed this basket with the extender. I am totally pleased with it's quality and easy of assembly. I did ask etrailer about the fit for a 93 Wrangler with a Smittybilt rack (pics included). I was told that the rack without the extender would not fit so I ordered the package. They were correct, it had to have the extender but not for the reason they told me. the spacing between the rails for the rack were OK but the middle rail on the rack placed the brackets for the basket directly over the cloth top frame and they rubbed, which would have worn the top. I am glad I ordered the extender. One thing: I tried to order the light bracket kit but it was OOS so they told me they would not send anything until those were in. I needed the basket now and did not want to wait for the entire order(and pay interest on my credit card). I cancelled the order and then did reorder just the basket and extender later. Now I will have to pay shipping on the light brackets. In all-I love that basket-it looks great, the fit and finish is perfect and it's strong beyond expectations.
Awesome product! Feels nice and solid. Instructions were easy to read and installation was a breeze! Whole lot of room up on the roof now. Exactly what I was expecting. Could ask for more

Inno Wedge 660 Rooftop Cargo Box - 11 cu ft - Gloss White
Product came wrapped and packaged well, but I was surprised to discover scratches outside and debris inside the cargo box. I'm not thinking this was a 'new' product. For the money, I should have purchased at REI to ensure it was brand new without blemish.
This is an excellent box. The white color looks great, and the shape of it is sleek and looks better than in the pictures IMO. I think it's really important to note, the measurement and size info on the website here is not right, at least not complete. It says max ski length is 183 cm diagonal, but the sticker on the product (attached to this review) shows that you can put 190 cm skis in front-to-back (or diagonal, but). This makes a big difference if you have a couple of 184 or 187 cm skis. I measured the box and the sticker is accurate. The interior lengths are the shortest inside dimensions, between the hinges etc, so you can fit in slightly longer items. It also feels a little lighter than the listed 42 lbs Locking mechanism seems good and easy to work, even with gloves. Installation was super easy, the memory mount is really simple to set up and use, it's just a screw and cam lever.

Thule Motion XT Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Black Glossy
Great customer service and great product. Thank you !
This roof box is very sleek in design and I love how low it sits. Everything is wonderful with it; it can fit all my camping gear despite being a slimmer model. I gave it four stars because one of the powerclick clamps that it came with fell apart only after 3 uses and now i’m going to have to drop another $70+ for a replacement. Other than that, I would recommend this item.

Inno Shadow 16 Rooftop Cargo Box - 13 cu ft - Matte Black
Great cargo box. Arrived early, fits on my 2013 Toyota Highlander with no issues. Fits through my garage door too which is exactly what I was looking for.
We used this box for the trip to FL last year. I like the slim design so it has no problem with the wind and looks nice on the roof. Fit 2 small luggages, 2 compact strollers and some small items.

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!
The 16 cu ft cargo box fits perfectly on the 2018 Toyota Rav4. Literally takes about 5 minutes, 10min at the most, to set up on the rooftop, and was able to do it without the help of a second person. The box itself weighs very little.

Thule Vector Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box - 13 Cubic Ft - Gloss Black
It's been a year and have used the Thule Vector Alpine cargo box for ski trips and over the summer for regular trips. The box fit 4 pairs of skis with a little extra room for soft stuff. For regular trips it fit plenty of bags and allowed us to use the third row of seating in the car. The box looks great on the car and the fact that it opens up from both side is extremely helpful.
Incredible roof box! It fits everything we need it to (including 190+cm skis!) and looks great on our 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. Highly recommended! My only slight complaint is the lights tend to fall out of their holders, but they're easily put back. A more secure mount would be a welcome improvement.

Rhino-Rack Zenith MasterFit Rooftop Cargo Box - 14 cu ft - High Gloss Black
Application = 2021 Subaru WRX Base. Perfectly functional, and a great look.
This was a great experience from start to finish. etrailer: After placing the order, I called regarding shipping and quickly got the answer to my question. The box shipped by ground freight, and arrived almost a week before the original scheduled delivery date. The Rhino arrived perfect with protective wrap, and all the required parts. Rhino Rack: This thing is awesome. Unless you jump up into the $1000+ price point, your rooftop carrier options are limited. My two requirements were to fit my skis (181 & 183 cm) and to allow my tailgate to open fully. The Rhino delivered! Bonus that both baby strollers fit as well (Instep baby trailer and Vista Uppababy). Only a week in, but so far the Rhino box and MasterFit clamps seem solid. The ratchet/locking mechanism on the clamps is just ok, you don't have to twist too hard to over power the lock or feel like you are stripping something internally. The hinges are beefy, but don't take up a ton of storage space. It opens from both sides, and you can't remove the key unless it's locked, which is nice for those of us that don't enjoy picking up our stuff on the highway. Also, if you're like me and spent way too much time on mr-box.com, you'll be pleased to know that this thing doesn't look lame. It's pretty sleek, somewhat low profile, with a touch of Euro. It's not too wide, even on the narrow rails of the A4 Allroad there's extra bar space. I could probably squeeze an upright kayak rack, small ski pinchers, or for the ten of us in the world that own RoadShowers...the RoadShower 4 fits no problem. I definitely recommend a Rhino from etrailer.

Malone Profile18B Rooftop Cargo Box - 18 cu ft - Black
I’m ultra-pleased with my Malone Profile18b cargo box! I scoured the internet researching these things. I think I looked at every large capacity model around 18 cu ft for my Nissan Armada. There’s lots of good ones out there to choose from. I almost bought a Thule Motion XT, but I decided to go with this Malone cargo box because it had the specs I was looking for at a much better price (18 cu ft for under $xx.xx!). After examining it closely, it seems to be fantastic quality, fit and finish it great, and functions perfectly. It opens and locks from both sides—and new for this year, it has an awesome new 1-click dial attach system that installs and removes easily and holds strong. Also, It’s one of the BEST LOOKING rooftop cargo boxes out there. The Italian shape and glossy black finish looks very high-end. For the money, you can’t beat this box. If you’re considering a rooftop cargo box, don’t hesitate on getting this Malone.
This is a nice box. I have not used it yet takes a little time to get everything centered and put in place. Had a plastic film over the glass finished so nothing got scratched. Just remember if you have a sunroof like I do you will not be able to use it because it cannot lift up high enough to get open.

Yakima GrandTour Lo Rooftop Cargo Box - 15 Cubic Ft - Glossy Black
Great product and delivered intact. Looking forward to piling Skiis in it. Weirdly, even though the box is what I ordered, Grand Tour Lo Alpine, with storage to 215 cm Skiis, the label on the box was Grand Tour 16, 185cm and 18” tall. Thank goodness it was mislabeled and I got the correct box.
Looks wise one of the best boxes you can buy. I love that you can open it from both sides works great for everything I use it for. The only problem I have with it is how flimsy it is. If it had some more structural integrity it would be perfect. It wobbles all around at highway speeds. If the bottom tray was stronger it would be perfect.

Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Titan Glossy
This rooftop cargo box was perfect for my needs. While large, I had no problem getting it on the roof of my MDX. It was easy to adjust to fit my crossbar spacing, and felt very secure. I was able to fit a lot in the box, freeing up needed room in the cabin. The design of the box resulted in negligible wind noise and change in mpg. Very happy with the purchase.
The Thule was delivered without any problems in May 2022 with no damage, so I’m very happy about that. The large 16 cubic ft rooftop carrier is quite big, but it doesn’t seem to make any noticeable wind noise. I’ve only had it up to 60mh so far on my Honda Civic, but it seems fairly aerodynamic. Not sure how much it will affect the miles per gallon yet. It seems like a very lightweight rig, hopefully it holds up well, but only time will tell. I purchased the gray color hoping it wouldn’t get as hot in the sun as the all black model. Probably wouldn’t have bought it but it’s too costly to drive my truck on long trips due to bidenflation. This should save me some gas money and give our family a little more room to haul stuff in the car. It was very easy to clamp onto the Thule bars I already had, and just as easy to take off. etrailer did a great job, 5stars!

Inno Wedge Plus Rooftop Cargo Box - 13 cu ft - Matte Black
Haven't had a chance to really test it out yet, but looks great for carrying ski and snowboard gear and fits on my Kia Sportage with Thule aero bars perfectly. Box seems much sturdier than the previous Thule Pulse box I used to have and this one opens on both sides which is nice.
Bought this as a) it fits my wife's Subaru Outback and my Toyota Highlander and b) either vehicle will fit into the garage with the box attached (key functionality when leaving it mounted for multiple months during ski season). Box has performed well so far having gone on its maiden voyage atop the Outback to VA for Xmas and an epic 28-day adventure on the Highlander to CO this past summer. Easy to mount and dismount (even with crossbars that sit a mere 7/8 inch off the roof on my Highlander) and wind noise increase has been barely noticeable. Well-built and I love the latch/lock and liner/mat. etrailer was great at quickly answering my questions regarding dimensions prior to purchase. Would highly recommend.

Thule Vector M Rooftop Cargo Box - 13 Cubic Ft - Gloss Black
Item looks great. Can’t wait to put to use. Delivery was very smooth as well - top notch service from etrailer!

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.

Inno Box 2020 Rooftop Cargo Box - 14 cu ft - Matte Black
We have used our Inno roof box on a few long trips and I am very happy with it. I like how low profile it is and the fact you can open it from either side which makes packing it much easier. Doesn't seem to negatively effect MPG that much either.
No complaints, this cargo box has been great. We've put roughly 2k fully-loaded miles on it over the past year and it has worked as advertised. It fits a lot more gear than I expected and looks great on our Outback. Wind noise is minimal, and it also has a minimal impact on mpg. It's easy for me to install on the car by myself in a few minutes, and it's great to be able to access the interior of the box from either side. It's also pretty cool to have a sleek roof box that stands out from the sea of Thule and Yakima products out there. I'd absolutely purchase another Inno product. The folks at erailer were great to work with as well.

Thule Sidekick Roof Mounted Cargo Carrier Box - U-Bolt Mounts - 8 Cubic Feet
Nothing like the Thule Box I bought in the 90's that carried 80 pounds of gear for 15 years out on top of the car without wearing or fading. This box is made of much thinner material, flexes too much, the bar attachment hardware is cheap, the plastic nuts quickly cross-thread and the rods are already corroding, locks are fussy. The box bends under modest loading; will not be buying Thule cargo stuff anymore.
This cargo box looks great on top of my Subaru. It was easy to install and it was very secure during my travels across southeast US. Had daughter, two teenagers, my dog, and myself traveling and the extra space was perfect. Cody O was wonderful during the ordering process over the phone and internet.

Thule Force XT Sport Rooftop Cargo Box - 11 cu ft - Black AeroSkin
This is a great car-top carrier. It is light and easy to install and move around. The opening and locking mechanisms also work well. I drove 5 hours with it in the rain and no moisture made it inside. eTrailer was also great when ordering. The freight company lost the first one and eTrailer simply sent me a replacement. Great company to work with.
Great product from a great company I bought this rooftop box for my daughter last year when she moved from Georgia to Oregon. It held well even in ran and snow. This is my second Thule rooftop box. I wish I had bought the first one from etrailer. They have great prices and great customer service.

Yakima CBX Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 Cubic Ft - Black
It is big, so big it takes two people to move it! It holds skis, snowboards and so much more. Keep your boots warm in the car. I love that it opens from either side. It fills the roof of my Subaru Crosstrek and and looks small, sort of, on the big SUV. Well built and adjustable. My biggest problem was finding a good storage space for it when not hauling stuff & cutting the wind.
Looks great and easy to use. Wind noise on highway was not bad. It sits on a 2017 VW Alltrac on rhino racks. I wanted to sit low. Therefore the sunroof will not open because of the bottom of the clamp. I’m ok with that pulled the fuse for safety.

Rhino-Rack MasterFit Rooftop Cargo Box - 15-1/2 cu ft - Textured Black
Looks great, works perfectly. Always good service and prices from etrailer! Been a customer for over 20 years.
Easy on and off. Locks easily. Key remains in key hole when unlocked. Looks great and not too big so it's easy to handle.

Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 18 cu ft - Titan Glossy
This roof box has worked perfectly for us. We bought it for a two week driving/camping trip out west. It is very expensive but it seems well made. It fits our 2008 Land Cruiser perfectly. I also measured it to fit our 2018 Volvo XC90 as well. We filled it will all our camping supplies: family size tent, 4 sleeping bags, 4 sleeping pads, plus some odds and ends. The one time we hit rain it did not appear to leak. We definitely do see a drop in MPG’s during interstate driving. There is a little more wind noise with it installed but its not too bad and we didn’t really notice it after the first day. We did go off road with it, including around the White Rim trail. This wasn’t too extreme, but it was around 100 miles of very rough trail. The box was solid during it all.
Unfortunately too much dust get inside the unit probably thru the clamp openings. It need to be addressed asap.
What our customers are saying:
"We got the cargo bag and used it on the DrawTite cargo rack with no rails and took the whole load up and over the Smokey Mountains! What a fabulous product!"
