Great Roof Top Carrier October 18, 2008
My family and I, 5 of us, like to head to the beach for the summer. We only own sedans, which makes hauling boogie boards and beach chairs for everyone a bit difficult. Using this carrier along with a "car roof bag" solved the problem. It keeps items off the roof and allows us to bring all of our beach stuff along. It is sturdy and stays in place relatively well. It made a 900 mile round trip without any problems. A previous roof top carrier I owned had one of the legs snap during a trip and scratched up the roof of my car. For some reason it had a flex joint in the legs. The legs on this one is solid and very thick and strong.

I don't know how anybody can give a positive review for this product. While assembling this product, the rubber hinges actually broke while I was tightening the bolts (all 4 of them). Based on what I observed I am happy that they broke while assembling and not while I was driving. I don't think this is a safe product. The item was returned the day I received it.

Highland Car Roof Top Carrier April 18, 2008

for the price, this roof rack is well worth it. i wish my car had the right kind of doors, so i wouldn't have to use other ways to secure it to my roof, since it will leak a bit if it rains. if you have the right kind of doors on your car, you would rate this a five star. i went from an suv to a smaller car, so on roadtrips, i needed some extra storage. I fit 2 large rubbermaid containers and secured them on the roof rack for my storage containers. there was a bit of wind resistance felt at times, but that would be with anything you put on your roof. the rubber feet did no damage at all to my roof. i even have a sun roof and was able to position the rack so it did not sit directly on the glass. it was easy to put together, too.

It works as it should. The straps stay tight during the whole trip. The rubber pads aren't the tightest fit on the feet but that just is an issue when the rack is stored. Not a big deal but worth mentioning so you can make sure they are there before putting it on the car. Very light weight and sturdy.

We got this because we were renting a car to go over the hill, over the day,to grandmother's house for Christmas. Rental in mind, I got this for it's "universal" factor. The rack worked great and did not cause any damage to the rental car, *but*...it appears the word "universal" is synonymous with "rain gutters". This is the reason we don't have a full compliment of stars. Oh, and if you're wondering how I got the rack on without the benefit of rain gutters...yeah...um...(close your ears rent-a-car places), I ran a tie-down line through the car with the doors open and ratcheted it down, then closed the doors on the line. A bit noisy due to the wind whistling through the lines as well as the gap in the door, but we got to grandma's and back without a hitch.
