MaxxHaul 60" x 22" Aluminum Cargo Carrier Rack Basket for Luggage for SUV Truck Car Van - 500 lbs. Capacity, Silver

Some assemble required but its easy work. Cargo carrier itself is lightweight but strong. One person can easily install onto vehicle. Would recommend!

This is just what I needed. It’s really sturdy and was easy to assemble. I will only use this on my camper to haul firewood and maybe a cooler, but in the fall I will put it on my truck to haul a deer. I don’t really ever intend to put a whole 500 pounds on it, but was impressed it could hold that weight. It weighs half the amount of the steel one I previously used. Work smarter not harder !

Overall, solid design. Assembled easy enough until getting to the last two bolts. One bolt stripped quite easily. Threads just tore right off the bolt! Luckily it was really standard sized. Went to the hardware store and got a higher grade bolt and nut. Problem solved. Otherwise, perfectly solid. Not too heavy like a steel one. Pleased with the purchase overall. They could probably use better hardware for a perfect 5 stars. Still worth the price to have to replace one bolt and nut.

Bought a couple years ago. Used once and it served its purpose well. Had a little bit of rattle when mounted but nothing a small wood shim couldn’t fix. Interestingly enough, I left it outside behind my garage through two harsh New England winters. I found it a couple days ago when I needed to pick up some fuel. To my surprise, it held up amazingly. Still works as intended. Still looks good all things considered. Oh and still needs a shim.

The MaxxHaul aluminum cargo carrier has been a great addition to our outdoor gear setup. It’s lightweight yet surprisingly sturdy, and assembly was quick and straightforward. It fits securely on our hitch and feels solid even when fully loaded. We’ve used it to haul a fully packed Yeti cooler, camping gear, and even a 22” Blackstone griddle—with no issues at all. It handles the weight well and gives us a lot more room inside the vehicle for longer trips. Highly recommended if you need extra cargo space without adding a ton of weight.

One of the features listed for this carrier is that it is lightweight. On one hand, that's a compliment. On the other hand, criticism. In this case, it is criticism. This is a very lightweight carrier and I question that it can carry up to 500 lbs. It is assembled with small screws and plastic brackets. The four corners are held together with plastic inserts that are held in place by small screws that strip out easily - so you know that the material the screws is made of is very soft steel. I bought this with plans to mount it on the receiver hitch of my RV to carry a small generator and auxiliary gas tank. I am probably not going to trust the carrier for the purpose I bought it for. The generator weighs less than 50 lbs and the gas tank full of gas is 54 pounds. That means the carrier only needs to be capable of holding 1/5 of the weight the manufacturer claims it can carry. If I had to do it over, I would not buy this again. I liked the fact that it does not have high rails, which other carriers rated for the same weight all have, but there is nothing to secure bungee cords to because there is no rail. Shipping - the pieces for the carrier were well-packed and the package arrived without damage. Assembly - there are no instructions, just a picture of all the parts. You have to figure out where the screws and bolts go. I took my time and it took about 2 hours to assemble. If you need something for carry mulch or something simple like that, this would be adequate, but I would not recommend it for something valuable.

I really wasn’t expecting much out of this especially with the plastic corner prices but I use this often. It has hauled 6 full 5 gallon gas cans many times. It has held up very well. Lightweight. Easy and quick to assemble. I use a bolt on hitch stabilizer to keep it tight while using it.

Don’t buy this cargo basket unless you have the ability to fabricate. The tolerances on this are absolutely garbage, tons on slop in the 2” receiver and the cross section where the aluminum basket attaches to the steel bar and supports. I ended up using a 5/8” bolt to attach to the receiver, then drilled a second hole at 5/16” to thread a second bolt to eliminate the vertical slop. I wrapped the 2” tube with gorilla tape to take up some slop since the provided tube measured at 1-7/8” on a micrometer caliper, so with the tape and the two bolts the tube became tight in the receiver. Now, I had to take up the play in the steel cross supports that attached to the square tube. The play was over 1/8” per side where it saddles the square tube, the provided bolts would never be enough to take up all this slop. I broke out the welder, prepped the surface and laid a bead down. Now when installed there is about a 1/2” of play side-to-side and very little vertical. Before all this there was 6”+ side to side and 4”+ vertical. It will work now, but I can’t recommend anyone purchase this item.

Gran tamaño, ligero y muy resistente. Necesitan una llave allen que no incluye. Pero vale la pena, está increíble.

Easy to assemble and install. I am using it on the back of my travel trailer for extra storage. The plastic corners seem to be a possible weak link but time will tell.

Love it. Light weight, sturdy. Easy to assemble, my 15 year old put it together.

I would give 5 stars to the carrier but I paid full price for an open box. Only minor scratches so I kept it.

Good quality worked perfect for my application.
