“the bag is heavy duty it served its purpose” The bag is heavy duty and it served its purpose. Only one trip made with it so far and I was quite happy with the capacity and sturdiness of the item. but after returning home and inspecting the bag before putting it in its storage bag I noticed the thin vinyl on the outside of the bag had started to crack (very disappointing to see) but I didn’t spend hundreds of dollars on it, so as they say “you get what you pay for”. I am going to continue using it; I really do not think a little cracked vinyl affects its usefulness. Spray some water repellent on it and move on.

2000 miles without a problem ![]() We bought this for our trip to Key West. It rained part of the way down and most of the way back to South Carolina and we didn’t get a single drop of water inside the bag. The bag is HEAVY vinyl and has a velcro lip that folds down to completely cover the zipper; no water leaking in here. I would definetly recommend you do a dry run before your trip to get the staps adjusted properly. We tried to attach it in a dark garage at 5am and did not have the best results. Once the straps are adjusted for your vehicle it goes on/off in a few minutes. We took it on/off at least a dozen times on our ten day trip. The straps were very strong and snapped on easily. I do have two warnings: You MUST have cross bars to properly install this unit to your roof rack and the zipper must align PERFECTLY before you can zip it; very tight. I would positively recommend this unit to anyone needed extra travel space…. Dry as a bone!! Zipper broke |

Great Carrier!!!!
Great Carrier! Went from Tn. to Fla. 1600 miles…not a glitch!
Does everything Amazon says it does! It is very easy to install!!! Really!
I read some of the bad reviews and these people must be idiots! It took me about 15 – 20 minutes to completely finish installing and loading it!
Holds 1 Large suit case and (2) small duffle bags and (1) flat leather suit bag about 3″ thick & 36-48″ long. This Carrier is very Heavy Duty! About twice as thick as a tarp. I agree with one review stating that in cold weather it is hard to zip and seal. Hint:Put small cable ties through the zipper eye and leave an open loop on the zippers. (4″ long cable ties) to help close the zippers.
Let the buyer beware.
The product looked real nice BUT, You do not find out untill you open the box from Amazon that you NEED TO HAVE THE ROOF RACK WITH THE 4 RAILS NOT THE ROOF RACK WITH THE 2 RAILS.
Sticky Zipper is frusterating but the price is right.
This is a great item for the price but the zipper is a real problem. I put some silacone spray lubricant on it and that helped alot. I will definitly replace this with a hard shell cargo carrier ASAP.
