We purchased this rooftop cargo carrier to transport our suitcases and beach items during our summer vacation to New England. We were initially concerned because it was so inexpensive for the size and worried that it might not fit a Trailblazer. Upon arrival we were pleased to find that it not only fit securely, but was rather stylish too. Although it appeared weatherproof we soon found that it was not. It began raining at the onset of our trip. About four hours in to our fourteen hour roadtrip the weatherproof lining began disintingrating. By the time we arrived at our destination all our possessions were soaked and coated in tiny grey vinyl flecks. This cargo hauler might be cheap and look nice, but it is not worth your money!

When we received this carrier, it stated on the box that it doesn’t fit newer style roof racks that are either flush or molded. (However, there was nothing in the product description to indicate that!) We have a 2004 Chrysler Town & Country with the factory installed roof rack. The clips on the latch-down belts that you have to wrap around the rack do not fit between the bottom of the rack and the car! For that reason, we were unable to actually use the bag, but it did appear to be of decent quality. Make sure you have half an inch or more between your roof rack and the roof of the car before you get this one!

I bought this because I was moving from Boston, MA to Phoenix, AZ and driving myself and my 2 daughters. I was able to fill this thing to maximum capacity- and was able to fit a small padlock on the zipper to secure it shut.
It rained and snowed on our trip and luckily, we had everything already wrapped up in plastic bags – this is not a waterproof cargo bag, but rather, water *resistant*.
When we got to Phoenix, I noticed that the front part of the bag had frayed and a hole formed. I think this was more do to the straps that were hanging and hitting it than poor craftsmanship.
I recommend this bag if you are doing a short trip, but not for long haul trips with a lot of highway driving.
Good points: Was able to fill it really well, was very easy to install
Not so good: straps really can’t be secured down and end up flapping in the wind

We bought this bag in order to make a trip from Sacramento to Portland in August in a 1995 Honda Accord that had a Yakima roof rack on it. The bag worked fine and held a lot of baggage. We strapped the bag to the roof rack bars. Ideally we should’ve placed some of the straps to the side of the bag in addition to front&back – but we didn’t have anything to strap to on the sides. So we pulled those straps to the forward and back bars too.
The bag didn’t budge on the whole trip. We didn’t encounter rain, so I can’t comment on how water tight the bag is. We were prepared to wrap our luggage with trashbags if necessary (and them put them in the roof top bag), but didn’t end up doing that.

I bought this rooftop carrier in a hurry for a 1000 mile trip. I have a Subaru Forester, the luggage rack has a raised front and back rail, but the siderails are flush. The instructions that came with it said it will ‘not work if the siderails are not raised’. Well guess what, it worked. I just tied the sidestraps to the inside side door ceiling handles. I saw someone else using one that strapped the sidestraps to the front rail. So it can be done.
I was concerned about rain from some other reviews I’d seen, but I didn’t run into any so it wasn’t an issue.
Seems to be a good product for the price!
