24x60 Reese Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
This was shipped very fast. Box was large and heavy(what did you expect). This was very easy to assemble. It took me about 15 mins. This is a very sturdy crate. I weigh about 200lbs and it is easily able to hold me. I had to buy a pin to lock it into the hitch, but no big deal. I have always wanted one of these as I do not have a truck. I will be using it to carry extra luggage on roadtrips... Powerwheels to the park, etc... I would highly recommend this product.
Ordered the Item on a Saturday and received it on a Wednesday. Super fast and was very easy to put together. Put it on my van and could not even tell it was back there. I would recommend this item and if need other Items like this, I will search this site first.

24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
Ordered and assembled unit, though have not used it as of yet. Seems to be very well made, though is rather heavy, and am having difficulty finding room to store it in the garage. Free shipping on such a heavy item was great!
We just installed our carrier. We love that this is going to free up a lot of space for our vacation traveling. Very heavy duty and bigger than i was thinking it would be.The pin that holds the carrier in the hitch was not included. It would have been an added bonus if it was.

20x59 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - Folding - 500 lbs
I was told this Cargo Carrier was the best option for my Honda Odyssey. I tried to go on vacation and as soon as I left the driveway realized it was dragging the ground. This product was not made for a Honda Odyssey. I would not recommend it for any low profile vehicles.
My cargo carrier came in just a little less than 3 days! Very easy installation! Have not used this yet, but it seems very sturdy with lots of space! Only drawback is that I have a 2012 Honda Odyssey Minivan and unless you have a receiver hitch that is longer than the one I purchased (5 & 1/2"), you will need an extension. When I fold the cargo carrier up out of the way, it hits my bumper and will not fold all the way up. Had to go back to etrailers and order a 7" extension! Overall, a great product and great company!

17x46 Curt Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
I've been using this Cargo Carrier on my 4 Runner Venture for about a year now. I Purchased this item to haul extra gear to Nags Head from Northwestern Virginia. Installation was a breeze and it's very, very sturdy. I had two Yeti coolers packed with ice and drinks and there was no wobbling at all. I'm a 197 pounds and I was standing on it after I installed it just to check for durability and this thing is a beast. I also used this as a rod holder while on the beach and I caught a 6 foot black tip shark. Overall, I'm very pleased with this item and I would recommend to a friend.
This is a substantial, well-made product at exactly the size I needed - smaller than many, and with sides that keep items secure. It was very easy to assemble, with all parts included and clearly sorted, and with all pieces manufactured to cleanly align. The item arrived promptly, packed to protect the shipment but without waste. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a high-quality cargo carrier.

Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 22 cu ft - Black Glossy
THULE Motion XT XXL was fantastic! A ton of space. Helped free up space in the 2019 Honda Odyssey interior for a Texas to Pennsylvania road trip. My only regret is purchasing THULE crossbars instead of the Honda factory crossbars.

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.

23x59 Stromberg Carlson Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
Carrier and box will be moved to hitch on 209 Solitude Rv to provide extra cargo carrying ability
A good size and very strong. I like the fact that it has a grated bottom, as opposed to a few bars like many of its competitors. There are many holes and notches present for any customization desired. Also makes for a great chair to relax. I also ordered the anti-rattle pin so as to fasten this tightly to the hitch. IMO that should be included with any of these trailer-hitch-Mount accessories.

24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - Tilting - Folding - 500 lbs
Robust construction and simple to assemble. I'm not in love with the tilting mechanism requiring two separate hitch pins, but it it seems to work just fine. It arrived in a very beat up box, but the contents were undamaged. One of the connecting rails was slightly bent (appeared to be a manufacturing error and not damage) and required a fair bit of force with a crowbar to bend back into alignment. Quality is perfectly acceptable for the price, just recognize that you shouldn't expect the fit and finish of higher end equipment like Thule.
Fantastic product and customer service to go with it. Thank you.

Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 18 cu ft - Black Glossy
Fits great on a 2022 MDX. Great to pair with the Thule ceiling mount. Easy enough for kid to lower!
Perfect for road trips. Somewhat easy install with platform stand.

20 x 59 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
Good sturdy carrier. Easy to assemble. Not too heavy to lift and attach to vehicle, or remove and store. Used on a 2k mile trip with my 2016 Honda Odyssey. It would be nice to have a brace or hook to allow cargo net hooks to connect at the top corners without sliding left or right. Even so, it did not present a problem.
Bottom line: it greatly increased the carrying capacity of my 2015 Honda Odyssey, and made packing and organizing for my recent camping trip much less stressful. Combined with the Curt Cargo bag C18210 and Air Lift 60815, our minivan easily handled the camping needs for our family and our daughter's girl scout troop. The carrier was simple to assemble, and I did not encounter any mismatched hole drillings that other reviews seemed to find on these types of carriers. It latched easily into the van's 2" hitch carrier, with plenty of clearance for the tailgate. Thank you, E-Trailer, for providing such comprehensive measurements from the hitch hole to the edge of the cargo basket. It is details like these, which keep me coming back to this website. On the road, the carrier was rock-solid at highway speeds. I did not hear any rattling or creaks that had me second-guessing during our trip. On the way back from the campgrounds, my wife was driving a second car behind me the whole time. She did not see any swaying or gross movement of the cargo carrier, which was loaded with the following cargo: 1.) 10'x14' 10 person tent 2.) 8'x10' 5 person tent 3.) 9'x10' 6 person tent 4.) 4 sleeping bags Just a good solid product, that I would recommend to anyone else trying to expand their vehicle's cargo carrying capacity.

Yakima SkyBox 18 Rooftop Cargo Box - 18 cu ft - Black Carbonite
I replaced an old Thule box with this. My opinion is that the locking mechanism, the clamping system, and the hinges are superior to the Thule's. Especially the locking mechanism. I used to have to wrestle the Thule box to get things lined up so that I could close and lock the box. And the bonus is that this box was less money (than an equivalent Thule) and eTrailer shipped it for free!
We have not yet taken the Skybox on a road trip so I can't talk about the box itself. But I can talk about the buying experience at etrailer. 5 stars!. There was a wealth of helpful information about the various choices for cargo carriers, including dimensions and clearance requirements, and I found the installation videos extremely valuable. Great personalized follow-up after the order was placed and after arrival. The Skybox arrived on time, well packed and in great shape.

Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Black Glossy
I was hesitant to spend this much money on a cargo box that won't get used but a couple of times per year but I'm glad I did!! The quality of this box is excellent and it is really, really easy to mount. It is a bit awkward to carry for one person but with the help of another person it's very easy to carry and put on top of the car. The gloss black looks really nice and sleek. The 16 cubic foot capacity really opens up space inside our car and will make longer road trips much more manageable and comfortable. Being able to load the box from either side is a game changer! I also really like how it locks and how it has a notification if all latches are not engaged. As of writing this review, I have not actually tested it loaded or at highway speeds but I'm very confident it will perform as expected. Now I have to figure out how to store it!!

Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 22 cu ft - Titan Glossy
Shipped very fast! The Motion XT appears to be a huge improvement over our older 'u-bolt' style cargo box, specifically the ease of installation. Test fitting the box only took 5 minutes ('21 Honda Odyssey w/ factory roof rack). I can't wait to use it during our upcoming trip. I also really appreciated the product videos on etrailer, which steered me from the Force XT to the Motion XT. I think the Motion XT's latching system is extremely user friendly, and I am sure will be my second favorite feature (next to ease of installation). This is my second purchase from etrailer, the first being parts for my aforementioned 'u-bolt' style cargo box (latches, spare keys, etc). I have had great experiences with both of my purchases, and will certainly use etrailer again in the future.
Curt 24x60 Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2014 Honda Odyssey
Today on our 2014 Honda Odyssey, we're going to be test fitting the Curt 24x60 hitch mounted cargo carrier. This is designed for 2-inch hitches, part number C18153. We'll begin our test fit by sliding the shank of the carrier into the receiver tube of the hitch. We'll go ahead and slide it in till we get our pinholes to line up with each other. Then we can install our hitch pin and clip. With the carrier in the folded up position, it's going to give us a ground clearance of about 10 inches and the closest point of the carrier to the rear of our vehicle is going to measure about 3 inches away.
Rola 21x55 Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2014 Honda Odyssey
Today on our 2014 Honda Odyssey, we're going to be testing the Rola 21 by 55 cargo carrier. They've designed it for use in inch and a quarter hitches. It offers up to a 300 pound weight capacity. Part number on them is 595907. To begin our test fit, we'll slide the shank of the carrier right into the receiver tube of our hitch. Now, we need to slide this in far enough so that our pinhole lines up with our hitch pinhole.
What our customers are saying:
"My cargo carrier was delivered on Tuesday (I ordered it over the weekend)! No rush delivery, no fuss, just fast service. Thanks!"
