Roof Rack Rooftop Cargo Carrier Basket 51"*36"*5"+Waterproof Bag 15 Cu.Ft. | Waterproof include Cargo Net with Hooks,Ratchet Straps,Combination Lock|200 Lbs Capacity,Universal Rooftop Large Roof Rack

I just put over 2K miles on the car with this roof rack. Does is make some noise when empty and traveling at highway speeds. Yes. Any roof rack will do that including cross bars. Did id make any noise when fully oaded at highway speeds. Sometimes. Depending on if it was windy weather or the lay of the land the road was going through. For the most part it was pretty quiet.The bag for the rack was heavy duty and easy to use. I can see why it would be difficult to use in freezing or very cold weather. It is rubberized material. It would probably crack easily if it was yanked on too hard. The tie down straps on the corner of rack were easy to use as well. I’ve seen a lot of reviews where people say if you pull them to hard they rip off the bag. This type of strap is not designed to be yanked down to hard on. It is designed to tie off the corners. The orange ratchet straps are the ones you crank down tight to keep the bag from flipping off the rack. It comes with two but I use four, two in each direction.The flaps have Velcro all the way around to keep it tight against the bag. Remember the side of the bag without the zipper is what faces front, so you don’t get water blowing into the bag.The rack was sturdy and I did not have any issues. I was loaded with about 200 lbs. The only part of the rack that I question is the assembly design. I would have made the insert part of the tube in each section of the rack a little longer for better support. The rack was assembled with a small screw and rubber washer. I would have a longer tube and a bolt with the twist knob to assemble the rack. I did not have any problems, but I replaced/modified the screw with the bolt after my last trip.I can adjust my roof cross bars to fit the rack perfectly so the rack brackets work perfectly. I line the bracket up against the edge of the cross bar so it can’t slip and the roof rack did no budge at all during the trip.

Very easy to assemble. Priced right and all the extras made it almost a steal. I’m a happy camper with this deal. Mine came with a couple small scratches but touched them up with paint and no problem. Well made, easy to load (better with 2 people).Good to have a tube of silicone sealer for joints and screws to prevent moisture and rust formation which is what they recommend.

The basket was easy enough to assemble and seems very sturdy. The bag is a bit difficult to attach and in cold weather the zipper froze. I had an issue where in high and cold lake eerie winds, the bag ripped open and shredded. I contact the seller and they replied right away and shipped me out a new bag and a pad to put under it in the basket. I am hoping the new bag holds up. The customer service was exceptional and the replacement bag arrived within a week of submitting the complaint.

The components are well made and easier to assemble than it looks. The engineering is actually pretty well thought out because it doesn’t whistle or growl while driving. Paint and coating looks like it will be better than I anticipated. Overall, pretty happy with it. If I were just a little taller I’d like it more… that’s a joke.

First off, let's all agree that this is a heck of a bundle for ~$210 + tax. You get a steel roof basket, cargo net, ratchet straps, and finally a travel bag. As of writing this review, I have assembled the roof cage and have done a dry-run of fitting my gear in it, but I have yet to mount it to my vehicle/travel. I will update my review if I find that to be problematic for any reason. Some of the rooftop cargo carriers I was looking at were $500+, so in terms of pricing this can't be beat.Assembly was very straightforward. Though the included guide is not the most descriptive in the world, the picture graph basically speaks for itself. I needed to use my palm screwdriver to secure the screws as they did require some force, so it's a good idea to have a tool that will allow you to exert some pressure. There are no tools included with this kit.The included cargo net appears to be high quality, whereas the ratchet straps appear to be a bit on the cheaper end, but still functional. The weatherproof bag is made of a heavy material akin to what bounce-houses are made of, and certainly seems durable enough for what it needs to hold. I would not trust that the bag would do well with any sharp edges or corners though, so do use caution when packing & zipping everything shut.My only gripes, as minor as they are, are acceptable given the price range. I noticed light markings on the steel in numerous spots that appeared to indicate the cage I purchased was either used before, poorly packaged, or handled somewhat rough at the factory. None of these broke through the paint, so I'm not too concerned about it. If you order one of these, expect to bust out a can of flex seal (or similar) to seal up the areas around the screw holes per manufacturer recommendation. An insert the company had provided seemed to allude to the fact that people were complaining about rust, which is something I have no interest in dealing with, so I do intend to follow their directions to avoid that.Overall I'm very happy with what I have so far, and I look forward to seeing how this holds up on the road!Update: I've installed it on the vehicle, and like many others have stated the U-Bolts are far too large to fit the caps on. I've seen plenty of crossbars and I really cannot see why they justify sending such large U bolts - I don't know of any roof rack that would require the length they provide. Again, given the price I can't complain too much, but this issue is more annoying than the others.

Very nice and certainly as advertized. Be sure to line up the screw holes as this will make that part of installation much easier. I did not use the included rubber sleeves for rust protection which is fine if you do. I opted instead for liquid electrical tape which also provides waterproofing and is easy to apply. Just a suggestion.I like the fit and function very much and it does look nice on a new Checy Tracker.

Bought this with high hopes based on the reviews everyone left. Product came with the connectors where the two ends meet the middle of the rack completely warped and not in line with each other. Made assembly completely impossible. Idk how the factory possibly didn't notice that when it shipped out as they were visibly bent. Tried to force them together with a rubber mallet and some vice grips but it just wasn't happening..... would not buy from this company again with any kind of expectations

This item is pretty good , it was light, but it did take a good amount of strength to put together. Had to get help since it seemed like the pieces were not lined up well. It is a little pricey for how much work had to be done. It did come with the extra bag which has plenty of room and it is water proof, an addition was the parts to tighten it which is a good add on, had a good amount of space and looks nice. It is strong and stays still but it did corrode a bit after one road trip.

Clamps bend and do not support my roof rails very well. Paint scraps off easily. Nut knobs protrude above the rack.
