The assembly was easy.

Thule Force XT L Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Black AeroSkin
It arrived a little later than it was supposed too, but that was because the shipping company put the wrong box on the truck the first time. When it arrived, it was exactly as it was supposed to be. This was a hard product to find in stores, so I was thankful that etrailer had it and that they also shipped it for free! The free shipping was huge, because other places were charging a lot because the item is so large. Excellent service, I would highly recommend!
I really like this box. I have used it on many trips. There is a slight increase in wind noise while driving. I built my own cross bars for clamping it to the roof. I made them very low so the box fits close to the roof. I am surprised how water tight it is. It is big, I am barely able to get it on and off by myself. The clamps work great for holding the box in place, but they do pop out of their holding spots when they are not clamped down. I think it’s designed that way so they don’t break when storing or handling the box. Would be nice if there were handles on it like a suitcase handle to make it easier for one person to carry it and move it.

Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket - 47" Long x 35" Wide - 165 lbs
My review... photos are of the Rhino-Rack 47" basket (RMCB) holding the RightLine 15 cu ft cargo bag (100S20). The photos show our 2018 Honda CR-V with dealer-installed side rails and cross bars, after our first 12-hour drive. After dealer installed side rails, I realized they were not functional; that is, no places for ropes (who knew?! I was new to the whole roof storage world). So I had to have them add two cross bars. The cross bars cannot be adjusted, thus the Rhino-Rack 47" with its flexible mounting range made it perfect. After driving in rain, the inside of the Rightline bag was completely dry! Only thing in assembly: there were 4 large rubber washers that I did not know what to do with.
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.

Yakima SkyBox 16 Roof Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Black Carbonite
Super easy to install and great looking!
This box was perfect! Added an enormous amount of additional storage capacity for our Rav4. I was able to fit one large "checked-bag", a "carry-on", a pack-n-play, small storage bin, bungee cords + some kids toys all on the roof! Standard Toyota cross-bars. Installation was super simple; the box closes very securely and stays quite snug to the installed position. It was a bit unnerving at first carrying so much on the roof (i've seen the horror stories of boxes opening/flying off at 80MPH) but this box held up perfect! We averaged about 75-80MPH over 3000 miles of driving with maybe 100lbs of load in the box. Fuel economy dropped by a few mpg (36 -> 33) but overall this was a great purchase. etrailer was a fantastic retailer as well! Delivery estimates were right on schedule, and delivery was relatively straight-forward.

24x60 Reese Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
Very sturdy construction, shipped FAST. DOES NOT INCLUDE a locking pin. Instructions indicate the need for a "shank" when used in the "rise position". It is unclear what the "rise position" is exactly given there is only one position indicated in the installation instructions. No "shank" hardware was included...
Received my carrier in only a few days...some scratches in paint on frame and 2 of the small bolts were missing.....kinda have come to expect it on products made in china....put it together in about 15 mins. After searching my garage for 2 bolts the same size as the ones that were missing...The carrier should work for great for my use...Hunting stuff and to bring home my monster Buck..ha ha! In my 2014 Honda CRV....sorry no pics

17x46 Curt Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
I bought this last year for a 2,000 mile road trip and have used it a few times since. It was very easy to put together and slipped right into the receiver hitch with no problem. After the trip I am very impressed especially at this price point. It showed no signs of use such as dents, bends or chipped finish. It held up quite well to the weather and 150lbs or so we had on it and it continues to look almost new. I expect several years of use from this product and highly recommend it. One word of caution: the exhaust on the CRV blows directly onto the right corner and is hot enough to melt a cooler as we found out. I took some hardware cloth and sandwiched several folds of aluminum foil between 2 pieces and cut to fit the back, around the corner and up the side approximately 1ft. No further problems.
This is a well designed and sturdy carrier at a reasonable price. As other reviewers have mentioned, the assembly instructions contain an annoying sequence error--the center connection tubes must be attached to the platform halves BEFORE the halves are bolted to the center shank. There is really no excuse for Curt not to reprint correct instructions.

Trunx Rooftop Cargo Carrier - 9 cu ft - Black
Box is a great size and worked well. Very weatherproof and we drove through rain storm and contents stayed dry. Only disappointment was this was purchased with roof bars. I installed these first following the bar instructions to set the space between the bars. When I came to install the box, it requires a different fixed spacing, so I needed to reinstall the bars.
Used this on a cross-county road-trip and it worked great! We drove through all kinds of winter weather--snow, rain, ice, high wind-- and the contents seemed unscathed. The installation was relatively easy--bolted onto my Thule square bars on top of my Prius. The box felt very secure and did not move around or shake at all. I've used longer cargo boxes on top of my Prius and could see them shaking in the wind, so the shorter length was much appreciated. We did get lower gas mileage than normal and felt some wind drag from the high profile of the box, but that was expected. I would not want to take this box on and off frequently because the bolt process is kind of slow. Great customer service from etrailer and fast shipping. Great experience overall!

Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 49" x 40" x 6" - 150 lbs
We were very happy with our Thule roof rack. The low profile design works well and does not have too much wind noise compared to others I’ve had. It’s held up very well also through the seasons.
Still in great shape. No rust. No rattles. Great cargo rack
P V - 06/06/2021The Canyon XT installed with ease & also provides multiple mounting brackets for attaching to crossbars. It will definitely give us more interior room or additional cargo capacity! I highly suggest reading the directions a few times before you start & during assembly. Some parts are in the same bag for a step while other steps need parts from different bags. Depending on your vehicle, all parts may not be used. So make sure the parts you have left over are the right ones!

Aluminum Roof Mounted Cargo Basket - 44" Long x 39" Wide x 7" Deep - 150 lbs
This is a great product. As described, easy to assemble, light weight. I needed a solution to carry my spare tire for my 2020 Forrest River NOBO 16.2. The NOBO line comes with Rhino tracks to put accessories on them. The camper has the tire mounted on the bumper, but I needed space for a bike rack. I ordered Aero Bars and mounts from etrailer, and this basket as well as the tie down. Worked Great!!!
Still working as designed. No sign of weathering or corrosion. Love it.
David - 04/06/2022This is a great basket! It's very light and durable. I can pick it up easily in one hand even though it's pretty big. I have this basket on my 2011 Yaris and it holds 3 duffel bags full of clothes, a folding vacuum, highchair, 2 camping chairs, a longboard, skateboard, a four foot folding table, and another smaller folding table. I've had a few instances where the basket slipped sideways but that was because of extremely hazards roads in Kings Conservation Area in California and getting ran over by half of a tree tumbling down the road and over top of my car in a down burst from a monsoon in Phoenix. This basket has seen about 8,000 miles through 24 states in the last year and I intend for it to see at least a dozen more this year.
This basket was so amazing, but I no longer needed it because I was upgrading to a bigger vehicle with no need for a roof cargo system. I sold it on [used items site] and put the money towards a new hitch for the new vehicle on eTrailer!

20x59 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - Folding - 500 lbs
Sits low on my 2005 Honda CRV. Scrapes on the ground going over any gutter or speed bump. The exhaust of my car melted a tarp I had on it for a camping trip even though there is several inches between the exhaust and trailer rack. I had to buy heat resistant pads to protect my gear. The added space it provides is nice but is overshadowed by the problems I mentioned above. I ended up buying a roof rack and no longer use this product.

Thule Pulse Medium Rooftop Cargo Box - 14 cu ft - Matte Black
Cargo box fit perfectly. It was easy to install and the locking clamps hold very well. I recommend this product for quality and flexibility.
I ordered the Thule Pulse medium rooftop cargo box. We did have a little delay in receiving the product beyond what was expected. When we ordered, we were advised it would ship in six weeks as it was back ordered This was okay for my needs. Then we received messages a couple times that pushed it out over a month longer. I contacted customer service and was advised it was due to the fact that the payment needed to be reauthorized as it had been too long. I explained I received an email when that happened and immediately took care of that. Apparently, according to the customer service person I spoke with, this pushed my order behind others that had ordered after I had. He did push things along and I fortunately received it before our scheduled trip. It was easy to mount to my wife’s Jeep Cherokee. It is very sturdy and easily accommodated our dogs bed and supplies and luggage for three of us for a four day trip. It was much quieter on expressway travel than I expected. And when we returned home it was very easy to remove and store. So the bottom line, customer service was helpful in resolving the delay issue, the product is of good quality and was exactly what we needed. Installation and removal was easy and storage space was sufficient. It was easy to position the box for easy passenger side loading and without interference with the lift gate.

24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
I read a good number of reviews and finally settled on this model. I particularly like the mesh bottom and raised sides. I was initially concerned with the additional distance from the vehicle of the folding version, however after installing this carrier on my vehicle, the additional few inches of the folding version wouldn't have caused any issues. The instructions for putting the carrier together are simple and easy to follow. Appears to be very well constructed of quality materials. We travel as a family quite a bit and typically cram everything in the back, under the seats, or wherever there is an empty space. This usually makes for an uncomfortable ride. We're looking forward to freeing up some cabin space by utilizing the cargo carrier for linens, beach towels, chairs, etc.
So far, so good! Shipping was super fast for such a large box, and the cargo carrier looks like it’s going to work out great! I have to say, the videos you all put out are and were a great help in making decisions about purchases.

Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 44" Long x 40" Wide - 165 lbs
Great looking rack. It’s modern, sleek, and easy to assemble. Great experience buying from etrailer.com. It was shipped quick and delivered within 3 days, you can’t beat that.
Really nice roof basket fits nicely on my 22 Outback wilderness, I think it will be perfect with the 18” extension. And to top it off awesome service from etrailer.

Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Titan Glossy
Originally I ordered the glossy black box which wasn't going to be in stock for a couple weeks from the time of my order, which I knew. George notified me within an hour from placing my order and gave me the option to get the gray box which was available right away. A couple weeks later when I thought it would be shipping, I checked the order status page and saw it was pushed back even further. Unfortunately I was not notified about that. When I contacted etrailer, they responded very quickly. I was able to swap out with the gray (same product) and it arrived super quick. I thought they were supposed to schedule delivery but they did not. I woke up one morning to a humongous box outside the door. That’s ok though! The box is great and we just installed it a week ago and are using it for our first weekend away right now. It is huge but fits perfect on my 2019 Mazda CX-9. No issues with hatch or anything. Super easy to get on the roof rack with the clamps. We did have three people to get it up on the car though. It’s only 42 or so lbs but big and clumsy. I drove a little bit with it empty and feel like it chewed gas but coming a couple hours with it filled didn’t seem too bad with the highway miles. Time will tell but still worth it for the space were saving in the back of the car. etrailer had this box when no one else had it (or any other Thule box for that matter) and we had an overall great experience with them and I LOVE the box. My family and I travel a lot and this is a game changer. We fit every duffel bag (like 5 medium to large bags) and then some other bags in there. Highly recommend etrailer and this specific cargo box.

24x48 Lets Go Aero BigBoss Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 300 lbs
Good, rugged design. I sometimes worry about the ground clearance, but that has more to do with my vehicle and hitch than the design of the Big Boss. Once mounted, the silent hitch pin does a great job of securing the rig and eliminating noise. Very sturdy. I really like that there are several hole punches for tying down or ratcheting down your goods. I like the 6" tall walls, really keeps everything well protected. I was able to fit 3 full coolers on the Big Boss, and the best part is that my hatch was still able to open and close with ease. The license plate and brake lights are both still visible, so there is no need to move the tag or set up trailer electronics. Awesome!
Fast delivery but box was damaged. It was a pain to put together. Bottom is two pieces and would be nice if it were one piece. Receiver and hitch was too short for our 4 wheeler and we’re not able to put the lock pin in because rubs on the tires and exhaust so we have to buy a sleeve. It is the perfect size for our needs on 5 acres of land!

Yakima LoadWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket - Steel - 44" Long x 39" Wide
Ordered Yakima Load Warrior Roof Rack Cargo Carrier and Cargo Net for my 2021 Telluride. Both products received as described. Roof rack instructions were clear and assembly straightforward. Had to slightly adjust recommended spacing between OEM crossbars to accommodate Yakima requirements - 30" vs 33". Thinness of OEM crossbars result in the threaded ends of the bolts that hold on support brackets sitting a little too high, potentially presenting a cargo scratching hazard. All in all, however, very pleased with product.
Well done Yakima and etrailer. Great product and great service. The product is well made (in Taiwan....not China) and the parts and instruction video made it relatively" easy to install. Two people helps to install it more readily. The wind diffuser in the front greatly reduces wind noise. All in all very happy and glad I bought through etrailer. Service was excellent and delivery prompt.
Great product!! Went through the winter with no hiccups. Recommended.

The locking mechanism is VERY difficult to use, not sure if it is a defect with my box or a common problem. Also, you have to make sure it is aligned perfectly at three different points when closing, or the lock won't even engage. I have had to ask several strangers to assist me in locking/unlocking and loading up after a long ski day. Not user-friendly for one person.

Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket - 57" Long x 42" Wide - 165 lbs
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.
Installation went smoothly. Took about 2 hours. Fits our 2019 MDX perfectly.
Works well but after a year the basket is starting to show surface rust. We’re in New England on the coast so perhaps salt are is an issue in the long term.
Noah F. - 02/23/2022etrailer Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2021 Honda CR-V
Hi everyone. It's Evangelian here at etrailer and today we are looking at the etrailer aluminum cargo carrier here on our 2021 Honda CRV. So the aluminum cargo carrier is really good if you want to make the most of your weight capacity on your hitch. Since this is aluminum, it's not as heavy as the steel cargo carriers. That way you can use your weight capacity for the fun things in life, like your cargo, your bags, and your gear. So let's take a look at the way it works here on our Honda CRV.
etrailer Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2020 Honda CR-V
Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today on our 2020 Honda CRV, we're going to be taking a look at the etrailer.com aluminum cargo carrier. So it's going to be a great way to free up some space on the inside of your CRV. So whether you're looking to have a little bit more room whenever you're driving, say on vacation or something like that, or just looking to be able to carry extra cargo, this is going to get the job done. It is relatively large, but it's not going to be so big that it's going to look out of place on the back of the CRV. In my opinion, it's just about the perfect size.
Rola 22x59 Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2019 Honda CR-V
Hi there, CR-V owners. Today on our 2019 Honda CR-V, we're going to be taking a look at Rola's cargo carrier and you're probably wondering why I'm standing in the back of the cargo carrier. Well, I'm just showing off its immense carrying capacity of 600 pounds. That's three of me. Most cargo carriers don't boast a capacity this high and I can tell based just by standing in it that it feels sturdier than many of the other cargo carriers out there, particularly the mesh located here at the bottom. It doesn't flex like some of the other brands.
etrailer Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2019 Honda CR-V
Hey guys, Jake here at eTrailer. Today we have a 2019 Honda CRV. We're going to be doing a test vid and showing you some of the cool features on the eTrailer tilting cargo carrier.

The dimensions are going to be 24 inches wide by 60 inches long by about five inches deep. So that's plenty of space to get your gear out of your car and onto the cargo carrier.We have some of these straps here at etrailer that you can purchase to simply tie down.
Reese 24x60 Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2018 Honda CR-V
Rob here at etrailer.com. Today we're going to be taking a look at the Reese Explorer Hitch Cargo Carrier on our 2018 Honda CRV.Now, a hitch cargo carrier is going to allow us to free up space inside of our CRV for passengers or pets, and be able to get all that gear to the outside. As you can see, we're going to have plenty of room to even get a full-size cooler, as well as some other gear inside the cargo carrier. The usable space inside of our cargo carrier is going to be 24 inches long, by 60 inches wide, and the inside walls are going to be about 5 1/2 inches tall, and you can see we have plenty of spots to hook on any straps to make sure our gear is secure.Now our Reese Cargo Carrier, if you look at the hitch, you can see that it actually comes up to a rise when it comes out. We're going to have a 2 1/2 inch rise on the shank. That way it gives us a little bit more ground clearance, so you don't have to worry about anything bottoming out back here.Now one thing you do want to keep in mind is how tall you stack everything.
Reese 24x60 Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2017 Honda CR-V
Speaker 1: Today on our 2017 Honda CRV we're going to be taking a look at the Reese Explorer cargo carrier, part number 63153.

MaxxTow Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2016 Honda CR-V
Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today, we are looking at our MaxxTow wheelchair and scooter cargo carrier here on our 2016 Honda CR-V. So this is gonna be a cargo carrier that not only gives you a 500-pound weight capacity, but it also has a ramp or a 60-inch long ramp to the side of the cargo carrier, which will allow you to roll either your wheelchair, your scooter, your snowblower, whatever you need to carry onto your cargo carrier. So we'll take a look at how it fits here on our Honda CR-V. The first thing I wanna take a look at is how much length is added to the back of my car right now. So if I had a CR-V, I would measure from this bumper to the end of the carrier, and that would be about 42 3/4 inches.
Rola Roof Basket Review - 2016 Honda CR-V
So today on our 2016 Honda CRV we're going to be doing a test fit on the Rola Atlas Roof Top Cargo Basket. So I've already got it in place to give you a good idea what it looks like on your CRV.Now, it measures about 56 inches long, 43 1/2 inches wide and it's about four inches deep. You can see here how it features a fairing in the front, what's unique to this basket because it features a fairing it's going to be a little bit quieter. It's going to help redirect that wind around it rather just blowing right through it like most baskets. So, it's going to be quieter on our roof.What's unique to this basic is it features a roof rack system within the inside. You can the crossbar here and then a crossbar in the back, so that way when it's using up your crossbars on your CRV you can still put your accessories like your bike racks or you kayak carriers on the inside while carrying your gear.Now it is a fixed system on the inside so that's going to be about 35 inches, center on center so you'll need to choose accessories that work with that crossbar spread.

"The trailer hitch mounted cargo carrier is an outstanding accessory. It allowed us to bring so much more on vacation. The side rails made securing things really easy and the auxiliary taillight kit plugged right into my plug. The service was so great that I just ordered a trailer hitch cover for the winter. Thanks!"
It has worked great. Little to no additional wind noise. I drove all day in a rain storm, I expected a lot of water inside the carrier, but found only a tablespoon or so of water. The clamps hold tight.
