A terrific rooftop storage box for sedans or cars with shorter roofs, the Yakima SpaceCadet 15s still holds plenty of gear, with an extra-wide design that provides 15 cubic feet of storage space. The SpaceCadet 15s measures 58 by 38 by 15 inches (L x W x H), enough room for luggage, games, food, and whatever else your family might need during a weekend getaway. Plus, the unit works with round, square, and most factory crossbars, so you probably won’t need to buy a new rack if your car already ha

i used this cargo box to travel cross country. it fit on the factory roof rack of my subaru and did not shift from highway speeds or leak water during rainy spells. i found that the overall height of the box on top of the car was not too great so no disaster would be caused when i pulled out of the garage, like some chevy chase movie. the bugs wash off easily and the box itself is not overly heavy so installation and any clean up is simple.it holds plenty of gear and one should be conscious of the weight restrictions on the rack itself. i am sure overloading could be done easily enough. It worked great for holding camping and fishing gear and other compressible stuffs. i feel it was a good buy.

Size-wise and shape-wise, the RocketBox was one of the cargo boxes I was looking at (along with the Thule counterpart). I liked the side-opening, the volume of storage, and the way it fit on my CUV. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead if 5 is this box seemed a bit flimsy. Then again, it’s the only way to cut down its weight for its use. No problems on the highway, it didn’t affect my mileage performance at all. I was able to use the rd row on my SUV for passengers and add additional room on my rooftop with this box. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this purchase.

This box fits perfectly on the roof of my Lexus 400h. It also holds a surprising amount of cargo. The only drawback is that I needed to place thin spacers (doubled over electrical tape) between the cargo box clamps and the roof of my car to protect the finish from scratches because the roof rails flex a bit while the car is moving and that flexing allows the cargo box’s clamps to “tap” the car’s roof. I did not notice any decrease in my fuel mileage with this box mounted on the roof either. It is very aerodynamic.

I bought mine for my small 4 wheel drive KIA Sportage. I contacted my KIA dealer and found out that this model Yakima carrier is recomended by KIA for my exact model of car.. I bought it considerably cheaper here at Amazon.
It was delivered with no problems (mine was free shipping). Mounted on my car easily and solidly with no vibrations or any unwanted movement. I mounted it by myself. It also weathered a very serious downpour of rain without a single drop entering the carrier itself.
Could not ask for more from any car top carrier.

The order arrived on the scheduled date, which was important because I was leaving two days later and needed the box for my trip. It was a previously used item but apparently was never used and in brand new condition. Installation was simple and as described in the instructions. The box travelled on my Subaru from Los Angeles to Quebec and worked as advertised.
