24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
Easy to assemble, nice and solid cargo tray! Bought it with the hitch bracket. Note: no hitch pin included.
OUTSTANDING in every way! As a disabled veteran I was looking for a way to carry my snow blower and lawnmower with my 2020 Grand Cherokee to work and assist others outside my home. I found the etrailer website while surfing and their site offered more information and carrier sizes to chose from. The purchase process was easy and etrailer communicated with me every step after the purchase until delivery. It took about 30 minutes to assemble in my living room and the carrier is sturdy, easy to install and just what I was looking for. etrailer is the bench mark for businesses to model. Thank You

Thule Pulse Medium Rooftop Cargo Box - 14 cu ft - Matte Black
Overall, we are pleased with this carrier. My husband and son installed it easily on my 2017 Honda Pilot, and I could still use my sunroof. The only noise was when it was empty and we hit one big bump. 99.9% of the time, it was not possible to detect the carrier was there. It did not seem to effect gas mileage either. It did not get 5 stars for the combination of price and quality. For the cost, I might have expected it to be a little less flimsy feeling, and a little more precisely constructed. However, once in use, these minor issues disappeared. We use it for luggage holding clothing, and it held 2 large pieces with room to spare. Overall, we are satisfied. However, do not forget you need space to store it when not in use !
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.

Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket - 62-1/2" Long x 37" Wide x 4" Deep - 150 lbs
Surface rust and paint discoloration after one year. One of the plastic hand-nuts started stripping/spinning, so I had to run down the opposing one to get it to hold, which means that the stud sticks into the cargo area. Wind deflector isn't even. The wind noise is very loud, I can't open my sunroof while driving anymore. All told, it's probably worth what I paid, but it's not exactly a premium product.
Very sturdy & strong, didn't quite fit the factory supplied roof rails that came with the vehicle but I got it to work. I did try to contact etrailer about it via email & never got a reply so was disappointed with that. Rack is recommended, filled it full side to side & front to back with luggage & no problems. Little time consuming to install but not bad.

23x59 Stromberg Carlson Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
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.
This is a nice, versatile carrier; however, we did take it to a welder to strengthen the expanded metal platform a bit based on how we thought we would be using it. We also added reflective tape, and added bicycle mounts for 2 bikes (Thule Low Rider Bike Mounts). We've used it to carry wood, camping equipment, and our foldable kayak + accessories cross-country, to take our bikes out for bike rides in areas away from the house. So, for the price, it's a decent carrier; with a few modifications, we are pretty happy with it overall.

Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier for 2" Hitches - With Ramp - 77" Long - 500 lbs
Buyer beware!!!! I haul a 280 pound Honda CRF450L dirtbike --- and this hitch ramp is horrible. I wish etrailer would offer a better quality motorcycle carrier. This one wobbles all over the place, is made with thin wall steel that bends easily, and is not made of good quality. I urge you to look elsewhere if you care about your bike. Will it hold....yes, but will you worry about your wobbling back back and fourth the whole time your driving worth it? I say not.The bends are where the bolts go through the unit when tightening them due to the thin material thickness. Also the top cross braces bend making the two peice design a weak design. When moto is on carrier it wobbles in the receiver terribly bad from side to side. I use a anti wobble device but it does not help. I have since just put the ramp in my junk pile and working on finding a better solution to haul my very exspensive moto.
The carrier was straightforward and easy to assemble. I have a 300lb. TW 200. The first time i ran it up the ramp, I used the motor and first gear. It took of bit of trial and error, but I finally got the placement on the "pins" where the front wheel drops in correctly. After that, the ramp was shallow enough where I just put the bike in "N" and ran her up and down a few times. I like the ramp. I really do...I just wish it was a BIT beefier. Some of the gravel, rutted, backwoods roads I take to ride might throw the bike around pretty good. I used thread lock where needed.

GearDeck 17 Enclosed Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Slide Out - 17 cu ft - 300 lbs - Black
etrailer's website was very helpful. After my online order, I received an order confirmation which was almost immediately followed by a tracking #. Just a few days later, the box arrived UPS (3 days earlier than the expected delivery date). I would definitely order from etrailer again! I chose this product after reading the reviews and found most of the reviews to be accurate. It was the only cargo carrier I found that seemed to meet my needs (carrying a 9.8 hp outboard motor, takacat 340lx inflatable boat, outboard motor dolly, and fuel tank). I liked the front opening which allows easy access and I would not have to lift the 90 lb motor up and out/in. The instructions were good. I assembled and installed the carrier with ease (It did not require 2 people). I was missing the following parts: 4-EE bolts 4-FF washers 4-GG washers 4-JJ lock nuts 2-NN lock nuts 2-MM washers 2-KK screws 1-Hole for tail light not drilled 4-AA Drain Plugs are too small for the holes in the pan Overall, I believe the carrier will achieve the goal. Thus far, I would give etrailer an excellent rating. Lets Go Aero however, I would rate as Average due to the missing parts, hole not drilled for one of the light mounts, and the drain plugs being too small for the holes in the pan. I do love the design! I will be adding a cable/lock for the motor/boat which will be fairly easy.
The GearDeck meets our needs perfectly. After extensive research, here are the key points for me (I had recent back surgery). 1. The door hinges at the top and is open to the floor. 2. Large capacity. 3. Plenty of clearance when traveling. 4. The cargo carrier slides back so I can easily wash the windows. 5. It was a little pricey compared to other units; however, well worth it. 6. It looks good as an accessory on our Montana fifth wheel. This is a good quality product and I have received many positive comments.

Detail K2 Motorcycle Carrier - 2" Hitches - Tilting
This thing is totally awesome. It's solid as a rock while driving over any terrain. I've blasted down back-country California roads (gravel, pot-holed, wash-boarded) roads with my motorcycle on and it's never failed. It's very easy for one person to load the bike and take it back off. I am so glad I bought this. I have used it with two different vehicles (see photos). I absolutely recommend this thing to anyone. It's fairly easy to take out of the hitch and put it back on the vehicle by yourself. I mean, it's hard to do that with all motorcycle carriers. They're made of heavy metal and you're bent over in an awkward position trying to put it in the hitch, but it's possible by yourself. Not a knock on this product. Now I do not have to rent trailers every time I want to go ride my moto. I just leave it in my current Expedition all the time and it's never a problem. I added the reflective tape on it just so some knucklehead doesn't smash into it at night when it's parked on the street. Again, I am so happy I bought this product and etrailer is always awesome. I keep buying stuff from them. Even just today I bought something else and I will in the future as well.
The K2 Motorcycle Carrier is an excellent product. It was packed very well and was received with no damage. Assembly was very simple. Just a minor adjustment for the front tire bracket and assembly was completed. It took a little practice to pin the rack loaded, but after a few tries got the hang of it. I’m using the K2 rack on a 2015 Toyota Tacoma with the OEM trailer package 650# tongue rate. Loading is very easy even in tight places. You’ll just need the length of your bike to load. I highly recommend this product it is built well and makes loading a breeze. Thanks George J. for the excellent communications and quick service.

Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket - Steel - 74" Long x 48" Wide
Roof rack arrived dented and scratched which complicated the installation because I had to hammer out dents to get the pipes to fit. Apart from that, the paint/coating scratches off fairly easily and the installation design is pretty awful. Instead of threading the pipe to accept screws they have this complicated plastic gasket mechanism which takes forever to align. I expected more from Yakima and for the price. Quick delivery from etrailer and good fit overall-- just need to wait and see about rust.
Initial quality was excellent and assembly a snap. Finding a roof basket that wouldn't look like a tiny hat on a Jeep Commander was difficult, but the MegaWarrior is perfect! Assembly and mounting took less than an hour and it looks great. Now it just needs to be outfitted with a set of off-road lights. ;-)

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.
It was a breeze to install on my 2018 Ford Explorer. Two reasons why I bought this. #1 the price for the size of the rack #2 The ability to adjust the universal mounting brackets from front to back or length wise. I had tried another brand rack but the mounting brackets were from side to side and did not line up with my fixed cross bars. I used silicone to seal all the connection points. I have not seen any rust as of yet. I like it so much that I might sell this one locally and upgrade to next size up.I've had compliments on the appearance also. with the plus up sized tires and the rack. It has given the Explorer a sportier look. I definitely would recommend this rack to anyone.

24x60 Reese Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
Easy to install took about 10-15 minutes and was able to hook up to Highlander with ease. Solid product!!!!! Enough clearance for brake lights and enough separation from vehicle!! Definitely recommend silent hitch pin.
Bought this to free up space inside the Vehicle and also to haul items I don't want IN the vehicle , it's preformed wonderfully. It doesn't take away from fuel mileage, not sloppy in the reciever. Nice clearance from the hatch .Highly recommend this item.

23x47 Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 450 lbs
The cargo carrier came exactly as billed. It was simple to put together and was perfiect for my first two dump runs.
This basket has been wonderful. There isn’t much cargo space in my suv with the third row up, so this is what I use to haul more stuff. I can fit 2 of the big black storage containers from Costco and a few other things in it. I also put my double bike trailer/stroller in it. I’m of average strength and can hook it up myself.
What our customers are saying:
"WOW! That had to be the best shopping experience ever online! Easy to use and thorough site, good prices, great communications on shipping and viola! A week later and Im looking at my installed hitch and rack. Unbelievable. Thanks!"
