Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket - 41-1/2" Long x 37" Wide x 4" Deep - 150 lbs
I am very pleased with the quality for the price.Just the right size for my 2017 Chevy Trax.the "U" bolts that are used to clamp the basket to the roof cross bars were a bit long so I cut them shorter & installed rubber caps on top of each stud. This keeps the studs from damaging items in the bssket.See pictures.
The reason I bought this basket is due to gas prices. I have a 4X4 suburban I use for camping and hunting but it takes a small loan to fill up the tank. Actually this basket cost less than it does to fill it up. So my thought was if i can get all my gear on my daily driver then i could save some money and maybe even sale the burb. So i gave it a shot last weekend. The rack was easy to put together. I had it out of the box and on the roof in under 30 minutes. As you can see in the pic, i have a rather large ice chest, chain saw, 6 man tent, gas stove and my chair on the roof. My camping destination was about 3 hours away. First was a hour of highway driving at speeds around 70. No issues there. Then 2 hours of windy back roads. No issues there either. The basket made it possible for me and my two kids to load up in the car and head to the hills for three days. The plus for me was it only takes 50$ to fill up the car. :-) I had the max weight in this basket with no issues. I'm very happy with this basket.

Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket - 47" Long x 35" Wide - 165 lbs
Greetings, I am giving these items 3? Because I was offered alternative products that did not fit together. Originally, I intended to purchase a roof rack cargo basket type and a spare tire holder from Yakima manufacturer that go well together, but one of them wasn’t in stock. So, after 3 weeks waiting time, I was offered alternative items via etrailer website, and I accepted them…after all, they are the experts. I got the recommended items through UPS, then I assembled them by myself. The roof rack cargo basket fit well on my car, but the spare tire holder was not compatible with the roof rack cargo basket. They couldn’t be assembled together. I submitted my claim to return the spare tire holder. Now, I have not achieved my goal to carry my spare tire. Understanding the needs and expectations of your customers is critical to maximize customer satisfaction. I am sure both products are good, but they are not compatible together, even though they were manufactured by the same company. Distributors should know better! I returned one item and I hope to be refunded.
Great product. Easily puts together and I was able to install on our 2016 Toyota Highlander OEM roof rails with no problems. The mounting brackets slide to make for a easy fit. Have taken it on two long road trips with zero issues last summer one to the montains and one to the beach. Was able to fit our jogging stroller on in the basket. Had some heavy rain on one trip and seen no signs of water getting into the rails as that was a concern of mine when researching the different racks. The high sides allowed for easy tie downs for the weather bag we put the stroller in. Seemed to add a little road noise with nothing in it but that is to be expected when hauling things on the roof but the wind deflector seemed to keep the noise down. Easy to put on and off with a single person able to lift it. Great product, great fit for the car. Plan on using it for some more upcoming trips.

Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket - 57" Long x 42" Wide - 165 lbs
Great product. Great quality. Instructions not real clear, so took me a couple of hours to assemble. Then another 15-20 minutes to secure to roof racks. I was working alone, extra hands would have helped. But extremely happy with quality and looks of product. We have lots of family that visit us, so I plan to carry luggage on the rack to free up space inside the vehicle on trips to and from the airport.
Love it! It's big enough to fit a bike carrier and a cargo bag on top of my MINI. Easy to assemble and install, solid construction. Great value for your money. If I have a gripe it's that the wind fairing on the front is VERY thin/fragile. I caught it with my bike tire when loading one day and the corner snapped right off like nothing. It's only about $XXX for the replacement.

Now, this is gonna help solve an issue that I'm sure you're aware of as an Equinox owner, having limited cargo space. What a basket on top of your vehicle is gonna do for you is help you get those bigger, bulkier items on the road with you by taking advantage of the negative space. The thing that's special about the SkinnyWarrior is the fact that it's so narrow, so it's open for the other side of your roof rack to be used for maybe an enclosed box, a kayak carrier, a bicycle carrier. you're wide open to many different options. So let's take a closer look at the SkinnyWarrior itself.

Rhino Rack Roof Basket Review - 2020 Chevrolet Equinox
Hi, there, everyone. John here, and today we're going to be taking a look at the Rhino-Rack Cargo Basket on our 2020 Chevy Equinox. Now this is gonna be a great choice, if you have items that you wanna keep outside of your vehicle, maybe you have wet bags, camping equipment, you're taking a couple different trips to maybe go kayaking and you don't wanna worry about anything that you can keep on the top of your vehicle inside your actual cargo area. So we're gonna take a closer look at this and see how this may work with you and your Equinox. Now, whenever it comes to the cargo basket itself, it's going to be made out of steel, and it's powder coated, so it's gonna hold up to any rust and corrosion you may have to worry about. So that's, like I said, whenever you're wanting to put your wet items, your wet bags, any camping equipment that may have some water on it, you're not gonna have to worry about that corrosion.

This comes in a length of 41 and a half inches with part number C18115 00:00:09 and a length of 62 and a half inches with part number C18115-117 00:00:16.

And, for vehicles with second and third row seats that fold down, that normally are filled up with cargo, you can now lift those seats back up and bring more passengers with you. It's got a faring on the front that can help reduce wind noise and drag, and will also cause the air to flow over your cargo so you don't have to worry about it whipping in the wind.You can see here it won't interfere with the opening of your tailgate or your antenna.
