Reese 60x24 Hitch Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - 500 lbs Capacity - Glossy Black
Quick assembly,works well
Great basic cargo carrier. Great value. We just went camping with it and it worked great. Very secure and felt very sturdy. We had no trouble traveling with it. We bought a bungee net (not included) to secure our three totes in it. Our totes are 18”x 24” and are 14” tall—they fit great with room left over, however, I would recommend purchasing one big fitted box for the carrier so that there isn’t wasted space. With our totes being 14 inches tall, the carrier still sits far enough away from the car that we were able to open the back door of our Honda Pilot without taking off the carrier or anything from it—so that was very handy when making pit stops to let our dog out and just to get stuff from the back. We have a large (85 lb) dog who was able to get in and out of the back of the car with the carrier still on (although a little tight). If you are traveling somewhere where theft is a concern, I would recommend purchasing a pin with a lock on it. Fun tip: We also used the carrier as a drying rack for towels after swimming and just as an extra table. It was nice being up off the ground. (This was just when we were parked at our camp site.) Enjoy!

Curt 60x24 Hitch Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - 500 lbs Capacity - Matte Black
After a good amount of research on cargo carriers, I settled on the Curt C18152. One year later, I couldn't be more convinced that I made the right decision. This carrier is rock solid. No swaying or bending like I see on the roads with other products.
Purchased for a 2017 Honda Pilot. I feel like this was a little wide for the Pilot, but it certainly was enough room to put a lot of stuff back there!

19x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Aluminum - Folding - 500 lbs
I purchased this item due to its lighter carry weight as I will store it in an attic when not in use. Reasonably light considering the capacity. When I inventoried the fasteners included for assembly against the instruction sheet, the quantities appeared short. I decided to assemble what I could and then contact the company with what was missing. It all worked out and seems the instructions are for multiple models of similar design. Unit is stout and well made. Assembly was easy over a large cup of coffee.
This was easy to assemble and integrated nicely with our 2017 Honda Pilot. Combined with the Cargo Bag, it provided reliable storage for our trip. Very sturdy construction.

Thule Pulse Large Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Matte Black
Excellent customer service and shipping. Cargo box arrived when they said it would and delivery driver went out of his way to ensure we were satisfied. I honestly couldn't be happier. Thule pulse large size is perfect for our family of five, and the duffel bags are also great.
Excellent car top carrier (not that I've had many to compare it to). Easy to install and remove, sturdy, and fits well on our Toyota Siena. Opening it is a little tricky, as sometimes the top sticks to the bottom a bit. Adds a lot of extra storage to our car, great for when we go camping. Great experience with etrailer.

Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket - 64-1/2" Long x 37" Wide x 4" Tall - 150 lbs
Put this on an 2023 Rav 4 Hybrid- Easy to put together. You might need two people to get it up on top. Strong. Will create some wind noise after install. Solid build and construction.
I only use the roof rack for vacations because they make cars so small on the interior now a days. It handles quite a bit of luggage. Including two big size luggage and two small is how I travel. Make sure to get water proof covers and good straps. I stopped every 3 hours to make sure load was secure and drove over 700 miles without any issues. The rack will make whistle noise because of the wind passing through the bars but I just toned it out and blasted the radio . The product is great and sturdy easy on and easy off. My only complaint is putting on the wind guard. I couldn’t figure it out because the instructions have poor information on the wind plate. Also it took two deliveries to receive the product due to my first delivery being opened/ repackaged and missing parts like keys. I returned it and got the product in a new package with no more issues. Customer service was very helpful also and communication was well organized. Make sure to order well in advance just incase you might have to send the product back because of packaging issues. Also product is easy to store without disassembly of the rack rails. I put it in my garage and it takes up no space. I hope this review helps someone. Thank you

24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - Tilting - Folding - 500 lbs
Product seems to be heavy duty and well built. The installation instruction were very hard to read. The diagrams were way to small. It was missing hardware and one of the larger bolts was stripped prior to installation. So I had to make a trip to the hardware store to complete the assembly. The tools provided would be helpful for those that do not have the proper tools for assembly. When I initially placed my order it said it would be delivered before Christmas and that was over 5 weeks away. But it arrived in less than a week. So shipping was faster than expected. Overall, this carrier seems to be a well made product. We will be using it on our family vacation in a few weeks so I will update this review after we get back.
I love this unit! I’m an avid Camper and Jeeper. My rig has big tires including the spare that requires additional clearance. In addition to hauling my gear, I had concerns about ground clearance off roading and stability. This unit exceeded my expectations on every point! I can even open the tailgate with the unit on and it still has enough clearance to fold up when not loaded. In addition to a great product, the order was confirmed and shipped same day and on my doorstep two days later. It was pretty easy to put together but having a second person to help and fit it on the first time is helpful. Great product!

Yakima MegaWarrior Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket - Steel - 52" Long x 48" Wide
The MegaWarrior is a great Roof Rack. The only thing I didn’t like was the fit to the roof rails. My rails that I purchased from you are shaped like aircraft wings and the basket clamps seem to be designed for round rails. However I was able to complete the attachment and the rack remained secure for a 2,000 mile trip.
Very well built quality products from Yakima.

Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket - 41-1/2" Long x 37" Wide x 4" Deep - 150 lbs
I've had this on my Pilot only once in anticipation of a full vehicle for a family outing. I mounted it on the Pilot's roof rack bars but didn't need to use it. Traveling down the interstate at 70 mph and no noise or rattling from the basket. The downside for me is the attachment bars. They are universal fit for multiple vehicles and I would perfer a specific fit for my 2018 Pilot; guess I need to spend more money to get that. All in all it's a nice roof basket and sufficiently robust for it's purpose (and it's a good price point). I would recommend this to a friend. Sorry, I don't have any pictures.

17x46 Curt Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs
Once it was together, I really liked it. It wasn’t that easy to put together and it required metric tools which I had to search for. It worked well and it was very useful.
Great little rack that does it's job. 4/5 due to two factors, one being its maximum 150lbs rating & two for being positioned DIRECTLY behind the stock exhaust on the 2017 Fiesta ST. We used this to driving across the country (Seattle, WA > Norfolk, VA) and it worked great, after wrapping our suitcase that was directly behind the exhaust in some heat resistant insulation. It did Melt the canvas tarp slightly but after the insulation, the suitcase was fine. Definitely was a lifesaver for space, with three adults, a chihuahua and 17lb cat being in the car for 45 hours, over the span of 5 days.

Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket - 47" Long x 35" Wide - 165 lbs
the good: strong. lots of anchor points. secure once assembled. gaps between bars are small, stuff doesn't slip through and hit my roof. reasonably priced. mounts securely. on and off relatively easily. holds a good amount of cargo. weight limit is more than my roof can handle anyway. the bad: assembly is a pain and didn't fit exactly. small rust spots developing. heavy. plastic wind deflector cracked from a rock. lots of wind noise driving at high speeds. overall. i recommend this basket. had some assembly issues because the two pieces didn't fit into each other easily, one side is slightly off-center. wish the plastic wind deflector was metal instead. i've used it several times and have no real issues with it.
I purchased this for my daughter who has a very active lifestyle. She has driven cross country and goes camping with friends. She absolutely loves this roof rack. It was easy to mount and easy to load.

SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box - Roof Mount - 18 cu ft - Black
After a year of dependable use the SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box continues to perform to my needs, wants, and expectations. The 2 attributes that shine the most are ease of access/cargo loading (rear access vs. side) and ease of off/on (lightweight and access to the U-bolt hardware). While the overall quality of the materials and hardware are not quite "Excellent", they're darn close. For my needs I'm very happy with this cargo box and the price point makes it a better option the the more expensive brands. It may not be as cool and groovy as a Th*** or Yak*** box but it gets the job done.
The Roof Box was as described and fit great -- Nice. Shipping however was not good, trucker dropped it and the skid at the foot of the driveway -- It looked like it had been crushed and dropped. There was some slight damage, but we accepted it as complaining would be more trouble than it is worth. E Trailer should vet their carriers better -- no care taken with this shipment.
