Pros & Cons

Pros

This carrier is great. Only downside for me is the obnoxious amazon basics branding.

This carrier has eight tie down straps that are sewn to the bag. It is easy to secure and adjust the straps when it is dry. I like the velcro flap that covers the zipper as well. The straps also allow you to not need to fill the bag up to avoid the ma...  Read More

Took this on a winter trip through snow and * roads several hundred miles. Lots of rain, highway speeds for thousands of miles and intense heat. It was still tolerable at high interstate speeds.

I have a thule rooftop basket that this bag sat perfectly in. Gave this bag a try on a family road trip and wasn't disappointed. We crammed a 6 person tent, 4 camp chairs, 3 sleeping bags and 3 blankets (in duffel bags) a tool bag and some miscellaneo...  Read More

Packed items in smallish bags, maybe 20 lb each, to get them onto the roof of the car. Was pretty easy to install. Def do-able with one person but much easier with two. Easy to clip to roof rack and cross bars.



Cons

The provided straps are not long enough to buckle inside your vehicle. Not even on the side of the zipper closure, but the other end. This bag is a nightmare to strap tightly down.

Every surface of the topper was soaked. Really disappointing for a topper advertised as completely waterproof.

First off, (after only one use) several irregular shaped objects can cause issues with getting the straps to secure this to the...  Read More


Zippers stayed zipped, and buckles stayed buckled.

Price


For the price, you can’t beat it.


Amazing price for the quality of the product!


Was a good purchase at a good price.


Overall it’s a good bag for the price.

Shipping


Simple and easy upon arrival and departure also when we arrived home.


Not sure why it took us two years to discover a way to transport all of my child's stuff to college in one trip.

Packaging/appearance


I packed my things into trash bags first, to make it easier to pack and unload.


I used a 2 foot step stool, followed the instructions and packed it from both sides.


Some of the clothes that were packed (inside other duffel bags) ended up damp.


I could have packed a lot more in it, but i had to load it onto the roof myself.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    My only issue is that water leaked into the carrier i ended up driving through multiple downpours at 70 mph which was clearly more than it can handle


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Good news is that only items in the front of the carrier got wet


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I did only put soft stuff inside and used extra tie downs on top of it to make sure it didnt go anywhere


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    We took a pickup and needed to be sure our food and gear would stay dry in the bed of the truck


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Word of caution be sure the roof of the car is clean if the bag is not sitting in a full roof rack


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Even with a protective mat we experienced some scratching because i hadnt considered the possibility of dirt or possibly dusty travels
