Lightweight aluminum cargo carrier is easy to install and remove and won't detract from your hitch's tongue weight capacity. Attractive matte black finish protects against the elements and reflectors help make carrier visible at night.
Features:
Specs:
This carrier's aluminum construction is rustproof and corrosion resistant. The lightweight frame makes it easier to install, remove, and maneuver than heavier, all-steel carriers. The steel shank adds strength and durability where needed to maintain a 500-lb weight capacity. The rugged, matte black finish provides additional protection against the elements.

Quite satisfied with the product quality and strength. I did as other commenters advised and used double stick tape on the reflectors. The original didn't adhere adequately in cold weather.
Works great! I needed a rack for transporting bales of hay to my animal sanctuary that was light enough for me, a very petite 60+ woman, to put on/take off by myself. It works perfectly. I did have to buy an extension (was about $10) due to the rear spare tire on my Jeep. Well worth the investment as I use it 2-3 times a week.
Cargo carrier works as I needed. It is close to vehicle which can make it tight to insert receiver pin ... but that was expected. Preferred the carrier close to keep cargo weight closer to vehicle rear.
Very sturdy yet as light weight as possible. Fit to receiver could be a tighter, has quite a bit of movement when unloaded. Will see how it rides with a load on it.
The boxes the items were shipped in were completely torn open and the hitch has paint chipped on one corner, also the carrier tray is scratched on one end

Oh my goodness! Customer Service will be in contact with you.
Received product on time without any damage. Easy to assemble ready for use. Performance review unavailable until completion of planned trip completed end of September. Very pleased with this and recent purchases from etrailer.
After some careful research for my choice of carrier I got the curt 49". Well built and light weight. I also appreciated the hardware which included 4 eyebolts for tie points. The unit was date stamped in July of 20. New old stock but that's beside the point of manufacture. A rubber mallet was handy for bolt hole alignment. The carrier will last for many years and a pro is that there are no plastic corners to rot in the sun. I like the look, the size and of course the eye bolts.
Received the cargo carrier and Thule offset hitch unit all in great shape with no damage from shipping. The right angle hitch piece is due here at my home on Monday.
I'm giving 3 stars only because, like all vendor sites, a review was requested before even having a fair evaluation time of the products. It would be nice if sellers delayed their ask for at least 3 months. How am I supposed to know if it's sliced bread or a heaping pile without using it yet.
The Curt cargo carrier is just what I was looking for and exactly as described. Light weight and solid. Shipping was fast and correct as always from etrailer.
It seems to be a very well made product with aluminum and a steel shaft to fit the hitch. It was super easy to assemble and I did use the torque wrench. I haven't tested it out yet but I'm hopeful!
Perfect size, not to big and not to small. It’s also really light
I really like this cargo carrier. Its light weight which makes it easy to install, however the hardware is missing.

Producdt has worked great. Used it to carry many things from logs to trash can cans. The ligh weight makes it easy to installremove but remains strong for carring items
FAST SERVICE, GREAT TECHNICAL HELP WITH HOW TO DO IT YOURSELF VIDEOS AND FOLLOW UP ON PURCHASES. I WILL DEFINITELY RECOMMEND TO OTHERS AND WILL BUY FROM AGAIN. A+++++
Just recieved this carrier yesterday, so I haven't used it yet.
It does seem to be very well built. I like that its aluminum and rusting won't be an issue.

I have been carrying my Champion 4650 watt generator and a couple gas cans on this carrier. It has been rock solid and performs exactly as I wanted it to.
Trival assembly and it is indeed pretty light.
Wiggles around some, but an anti-rattle receiver lock stiffens it up nicely.
Well made, easy to assemble, lightweight. Can not say anything about durability since I just received it
Lightweight design makes this cargo carrier a delight to use. Only possible improvement would be to add more anchoring points.
Works great as advertised. Fits perfectly in a Tesla Y, though you would often have to tip the out of the way to get the hatchback open when it is mounted, but given that a Y hitch is only class II (despite a 2" receptacle), more gear to avoid this is not practical (a Tesla Y hitch is really only for light loads). Also, this is why I bought this one, because it is light (aluminum) and so allows a bit more cargo. I also use it with a Curt anti-rattle hitch pin kit, which avoids left-right rattling while driving (get a "Thumb Socket Driver" if you do this, though, as the space near the hitch is pretty tight).
Perfect!!!
Light-weight and strong.

Awesome basket. Easy to install. I use it for 2 of my cars for long trips or bikes to the trails.
OK, I have just received it and put it together but have not used it, therefore I can’t tell you how great it is. But I can’t say it looks very nice, went together easily, seems very sturdy, and should serve the purpose well for why I bought it.

Update: I e used this product several times now and it is working fine.
So glad I researched carriers and found this one. Meets my needs exactly. Best features for me by far is its simplicity in construction, obvious strength/rigidity, with very high quality welds throught. Zero screws/bolts to rattle loose or catch on things. Buying on line can leads to some small 'dissapointments' however I am over the moon with this purchase.

YR LATER - Still 110 happy. rigid solid. Zero issues. Still smile when driving and see all other cheap wobbly carriers other have to put up with
Cargo carrier is well made and light weight due to aluminum construction. Things to note. Rack does scrape the ground on steep driveways but this can be fixed with a rising hitch. We use it on an Audi Q5 your height will vary. You will want to get one of the anti rattle devices to remove the slop from the hitch.
Do you have a question about this Hitch Cargo Carrier?

I believe it may have bent at some point between the basket and the receiver with a 250 lb generator mounted. Cant tell for sure without removing the generator.
