24x60 Reese Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
The rack is much bigger than my previous one. I was disappointed that it was made in China instead of the USA. It assembled very easily and the light kit works very well. The only draw back is I can no longer open my tailgate with the rack installed due to the spare tire hitting the raised rack.
The carrier was exactly what I was expecting. High quality, powder coated, and heavy duty. This will allow me to transport my mower, pressure washer, cooler, and anything that I do not want inside my Jeep. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
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.
Easy to assemble, nice and solid cargo tray! Bought it with the hitch bracket. Note: no hitch pin included.

20x59 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - Folding - 500 lbs
This is perfect! Our Mazda cx5 didn't have a ton of ground clearance after installing the hitch. This cargo carrier with the hitch riser is perfect to solve that problem. My only complaint is I stepped between the metal supports and the meshvonnthe bottom came loose/bent. Still holds up just find though. Ice had this thing fully loaded, too! Definitely recommend a anti-rattle or stabilizer kit to help stabilize it and lift it up.
This cargo carrier is easy to assemble, install, and fold up. The rail is nice for attaching ratchet straps to keep everything in place. It's sadly not wide enough to fit typical lawn chairs, so you'd have to put them sideways and laying on top of the rail. It seems to tilt in one direction. I'm not sure if it bent due to the load I put on it, or if that's the way it came together. It also wobbles a little bit due to (in my opinion) lax manufacturing tolerances. Overall, it does its job well.

19x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Aluminum - Folding - 500 lbs
Purchased this 1 year ago. Worked awesome for a 9.000 mile cross country trip with three off road adventures at geology tour road Joshua tree, west side road Death Valley, and kingman wash lake mead. No rattle, always secure, great clearance. Would purchase again.
Cargo Carrier is just as advertised well made and light weight. Delivered on time. Always nice doing business with etrailer.

Yakima SkyBox 21 Rooftop Cargo Box - 21 cu ft - Black Carbonite
Exactly as advertised. Well built. The adjustable clamps were simpler to use than I had expected and make it easy to adjust the position of the box on the vehicle or to move it between vehicles with differently spaced cross bars. I'm very happy with the purchase.
I got this a month before our trip to be sure I was able to get it (assumed supply chain issues) before the vacation season. I didn’t actually travel with this besides a trip around the neighborhood. I’ll update after my 1k mile road trip in July. 1. Delivery - free! Wow. No where else had free. The box was damaged but the Yakima was fine. Also it came with 2 massive crates which told about a day to burn. 2. Install - so the hooks are tight for the VW OEM roof Rack but I got it to work. I do wish the adjustment screws were a bit longer but it goes on tight and won’t be moving. 3. Fit - I was a bit worried about the tailgate hitting when opening but the mounts are fully adjustable so no issues on my end. It isn’t heavy, but awkward. I did put it on myself but two people would be much easier. 4. Storage - I rigged up some anchors and a ratchet system to hang it on the ceiling of the garage. It’s big but it’s light. Just kinda awkward.

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
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.

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
I have used this carrier on multiple trips since buying it last year. It provides plenty of extra space and has several holes in the framework for using tie down straps. Overall I’m happy with the purchase. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the bolts that hold the two sides together tend to come loose a little and allow one side to sag. It’s quick and easy to fix so not a big deal. I would recommend this carrier because it works well and is a good value.
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
Super disappointed in this etrailer purchase. The product came in a large box that was fully intact and not damaged. The actual cargo basket was meticulously wrapped and appeared to be brand new as expected. The other components however, like the arm, were in boxes that were smashed, old, worn, and had multiple layers of old tape. The arm itself was scratched and banged up, even rusty in spots. Clearly it was used or had been a returned item. If I wanted a dented, gouged,and rusty Cargo Carrier I would have purchased one used, for half the price. This is not the quality I expect from etrailer.. I have purchased many racks and other items from this company and usually the quality is outstanding. This time they dropped the ball. I have since read other reviews and it is apparent that this is not an isolated incident. I'd have sent it back if it wasn't so damn heavy and awkward to lug around.
Holds all my gear. Just what I was hoping for. Now my dogs have the car all to themselves. Really bummed that there are "Made in China" stickers all over it. I went with etrailer because I thought they were a USA company. I guess no one can turn down that cheap slave labor. Hopefully my gear does not end up on the highway.

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.
# 12
20 x 59 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
Great quality and serves its purpose. I wish I ordered the slightly bigger one to fit the bins and items I use it for. For example, a white standard igloo cooler doesn’t fit the way I need it to maximize loading capacity. I highly recommend a stabilizer to prevent wobble.
This product is good to go! It's been a year now. It's been thru two deer seasons and a couple 1k mile round trips. I've stood on it with no problem (stay on the bars and not on the mesh obviously). I recommend picking up a hitch-clamp to put on it to entirely eliminate any rattle on the hitch.
# 13
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!
Fit was perfect will be using it for a long time to come it heavy for one person to try and load it up on the vehicle though

Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Black Glossy
Came broken and obviously used already. Just like everything else in my order. Top was scraped up and cling wrap removed. Which I could have lived with. The front right hung was completely snapped off. Which for safety reasons is a big deal. So disappointed with etrailers quality for this order.
We recently used our Thule Motion XT for a trip around the country of around 5000 miles. We used it to haul two snowboards (longest 160 cm) and one set of skis and ski poles, along with all the other gear associated (bindings, boots, etc.). The car topper worked great and has more room that I would have imagined. It is easy to use, the dual side openings have been very helpful, and it is extremely sturdy and stable on top of our Rav4. It did affect the gas mileage somewhat (about 3 - 5 mpg; 35 down to 32), but it is difficult to say how much of that was due to the topper and how much was due to the added load and weight. Even on very windy days, the streamlined topper was no issue. I would highly recommend this to anyone. It is a bit on the pricey end, but it has been well worth it for us.
# 15
Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 22 cu ft - Titan Glossy
Bought this a year ago and have been very happy with it. Using on a QX80/Armada. Opens on either side - which is nice when securing to roof rails as it is easier to just go to other side than reach across when tightening to roof rails. Easy to secure. Recommend two people to lift on/off vehicle but otherwise can do everything myself. Has lock on both sides. We can fit 4-6 carry on suitcases plus 2-4 other bags/items. It’s “taller” than it appears, but I don’t hear extra road noise and haven’t noted any significant change in fuel efficiency. Have used 4-5 times for trips from Ohio to Florida, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina. In fact, drove 12 hours with it full yesterday.
Extremely easy to mount. Very durable. Being able to open the cargo box from either side is a game changer. Superb quality.

etrailer Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2021 Honda Odyssey
Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look at the etrailer cargo carrier on a 2021 Honda Odyssey. I've gone on many family vacations with my wife and kids and sometimes, if it's a long drive, we borrow my parents minivan. It's great, you have plenty of space, but sometimes when you pack for a long time, you have quite a bit of luggage. Then you run out of space, making the trip extra long and cramped. That's where this comes into play. This is an aluminum cargo carrier from etrailer, which, hitch-mounted, allows you to add real estate to the back of your vehicle and also looks great in the process.
Inno Shadow 16 Rooftop Cargo Box Review - 2019 Honda Odyssey
Hi, everyone. It's Evangeline here at Etrailer and today, we'll be taking a look at how the Inno Shadow 16 rooftop cargo box fits on a 2019 Honda Odyssey. So, if you're looking for a little bit of extra space for your Honda Odyssey, a rooftop cargo box is a great way to achieve that. There are some downsides though, like here, we have the factory roof rack, so we can't really get it onto any overhang. Ideally, you just center it onto your roof, which does make it a little tricky to get into. Now, the perks though is you can still open up your hatch and get full access into the back with this box on your roof.

Flint Hill Goods Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2018 Honda Odyssey
How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Flint Hill Goods Aluminum Cargo Carrier on the back of our 2018 Honda Odyssey. Our Flint Hill Goods Aluminum Cargo Carrier is a really solid constructed aluminum carrier. It's lightweight and corrosion resistant, at the same time being very sturdy, giving you a rating of up to 500 pounds. On the back of our Odyssey, it's minimally intrusive and we'll take a closer look at that. But as far as what you have out the box, you have two reflectors on the rear and you have a nice thick post on the top in order for your tie downs. The slats on the side aren't for tying down, they're just gonna help support the structure of the carrier itself and you have nice, thick bars going to length and width of the carrier, so that's gonna offer a lot of stability for you.
