Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The instructions are somewhat vague, but assembly is not all that difficult. It's a little tough to install because of little washers that always fall on the curt.

Fits perfect on my 2010 pilot. Looks great on my kj. Looks really cool on a kia soul. It's about 1/2 of an inch from a perfect fit on my outback.



Cons

The spacing between the honda crossbars cannot be adjusted. The basket is okay, though the black paint flaked off in several places. The four u-bolts used to secure the basket to the roof rack rails are total junk.

Quality


Sturdy, just needed to spray wd40 or paint on grooves and connections to prevent rusting.


Easy to assemble and install, and good size for a compact car.

Price


Cost effective inexpensive product that performed as advertised on 12,500 mile trip to alaska and back.


Expandable car top bag, purchased on amazon (best price).


I could not have built it for the money i paid.


This is way more for your money.

Shipping


It shipped very quickly and got here earlier then expected.


My rack was delivered to me with a couple days in wonderful condition.


I had to contact the seller because i was short 3 short screws and missing items were sent without charge and promptly.


Arrives from china not assembled, but you'll be able to figure it out.

Packaging/appearance


I would have liked it to be a little bigger but i was happy with it and the packaging too.


The packaging doesnt match the picture as mine did not have that solid piece in the front at all.

Competitiveness


I highly recommend it as a cost effective alternative to the brand name roof rack baskets.


Even the caution stickers and fairing brackets are the same between the two companies.


I'd recommend this product to anyone looking for a cheap alternative to the $400 name brand baskets.

    I suggest however that you spray all nuts and bolts and the entire product with black spray paint after assembly and before use to address the inevitable rust of this product being made of relatively low grade metal that rusts
