Ich habe diesen wetterfesten Dachgepäckträger kürzlich für unseren Familienurlaub gekauft und bin absolut begeistert! Die Qualität ist hervorragend, und der Dachgepäckträger hat all unsere Erwartungen übertroffen.Die Installation war kinderleicht. Egal ob mit oder ohne vorhandene Dachträger – das Befestigungssystem ist durchdacht und flexibel, sodass der Gepäckträger sicher und fest auf dem Fahrzeugdach sitzt. Die robuste Konstruktion gibt mir ein sicheres Gefühl, auch wenn wir auf langen Autobahnfahrten unterwegs sind.Ein weiteres Highlight ist die Wetterfestigkeit. Wir hatten unterwegs heftigen Regen, aber der Dachgepäckträger hat unseren gesamten Inhalt trocken und sicher gehalten. Das Material ist strapazierfähig und zeigt keinerlei Abnutzungserscheinungen, obwohl wir ihn häufig nutzen.Besonders gefällt mir das großzügige Fassungsvermögen. Wir konnten problemlos all unser Gepäck verstauen, was uns viel Platz im Fahrzeug erspart hat.Alles in allem ist dieser wetterfeste Dachgepäckträger eine ausgezeichnete Investition für alle, die gerne reisen und zusätzlichen Stauraum benötigen. Ich kann ihn nur wärmstens empfehlen!

Den Dachgepäckträger kann man mega leicht am Auto befestigen. Er bietet enorm viel Platz um Sachen zu verstauen. Jedoch gibt es einen kleinen Kritikpunkt zu 100% wetterfest ist er nicht es war ein wenig wasser tatsächlich im Dachgepäckträger drin. Aber dies ist relativ egal großteilig war alles trocken.

I recently embarked on a 2900-mile trip with the rooftop luggage carrier, and it exceeded my expectations. The zipper closure proved to be weatherproof, keeping my belongings safe and dry even during unexpected rain.The user-friendly design made installation a breeze, and the clear instructions ensured a hassle-free setup. What impressed me most was its performance in adverse weather conditions – it worked like a charm in the rain, maintaining its waterproof seal.After the long journey, the rooftop carrier still looks as good as new, a testament to its durability. I highly recommend the carrier for its reliability, ease of use, and impressive weather resistance. It truly made my road trip worry-free.

Overall, I like the design and construction. It comes at a great price. But after only a few trips all of the Velcro strips that secure a lip of material over the zipper for added rain protection have come loose. Not just one or two — ALL of them. Makes me worry that something else could unexpectedly go wrong.

Used to expand on what my KIA Soul could carry. It added 10 cubic feet. The video showed me how to install without having a roof rack. Trip was around 275 miles each way. There was no rain during either direction. Once you’ve tightened the straps down make sure to tie a knot with the excess strap near the buckle. Rightline support said I could have gone with a 15 cubic foot product or a ten. But when I specified my car and model with Amazon it overrode my preference and insisted the 15 was not right for my vehicle. Well built. I used a car roof protector upon which to place the product. I also used something similar to keep contents from shifting. I had some foam pool tubes along so I placed one in the front to keep box corners from poking against the front. But this was only a precaution based on prior experience. Again this is made of durable product and. Of a good design. Due to unfamiliarity it took me 3 times as long to install on the trip out than for the return trip.

Was not easy to put up on roof. But was able to fit a lot of things. Wish it had better clips to hold in place. But it still worked for our camping trip. Would recommend adding a rope to hold it down.

Drove 16 hours starting at 65 degrees and raining, all the way through a horrible freezing rain storm down to 10 degrees - The bag and straps had almost an inch of ice on them. No damage, wear and tear, or water got in at all. If you pack it properly and mount it properly, as the instruction recommend, you will have no issues. Anyone with damage to their corners didnt properly pack the bag, and that's their fault. One thing I would recommend - the straps would not stop making noise at high speeds. It sounded like a helicopter was on my roof. I twisted all of the straps like I saw many other reviewers state, and that got rid of all sound. Great bag and I will use it again.

Travelled nearly 1500 kms in the car and I didnt have racks in the roof.. this bag didnt move at all and hold 2 large bags and 2 small bags and it has amazing quality. Highly recommed if you are travelling and need space in your car.

I was moving across the country and a friend suggested I get one of these to help out. I was so excited when I showed up. Easy to install and seemed really durable like I was gonna use it again down the line. Boy was I wrong.I installed it exactly how it was supposed to be done and the clips ruined the paint near the door straps. The biggest complaint is I maybe went through one tiny rain that lasted tops 10 mins on this trip and even after sealing it and making sure the zipper was not exposed to anything everything inside was soaked and ruined. I was devastated. I lost possibly over $3000 worth of collectibles (avid classic toy collector here) and when reaching out they said there’s nothing they could do and it was user error.Don’t buy this unless you live in dry land and expect to not have your car jacked up.

This was perfect for our camping trip. Had considered hard shell but big investment for something we only need a couple times a year, plus then would need to store it when not in use...I purchased this and a rubber mat to go under and a little step attachment to car to access. Was super easy to install and although we didn’t get it wet, it seemed like it would keep inside dry. Outside is rubberized and has super strong sturdy Velcro closing over too the zipper. A great purchase and stores nicely in carry bag that came with it, about the size of a plastic binder (for those of us old enough to remember using binders to organize papers lol)

I was worried about using this carrier because I'd never used one before and there were some poor reviews, but I'm so glad I bought it! It turned out to be a lifesaver. It's incredibly sturdy, so much so that I had difficulty unfolding it out of the box. The material is thick and a bit stiff at first use.The carrier isn't heavy at all but it took a bit of muscling to get it packed because the material is stiff. I was able to load/unload the carrier on top of my car by myself using a stepladder.The straps and attachments were strong and the directions were easy to follow. I double knotted the straps and checked them when I stopped for gas, no issues with loosening or slipping.The first trip I made with the carrier was 600 miles with sunny, slightly windy weather. The carrier didn't impact my speed or gas mileage much. The second trip, 300 miles, was in pouring rain. No leaks, everything was perfectly dry!This carrier was a great buy, I'm so glad I got it! It made my move a lot less stressful.

Just traveled from LA to MD. This thing went through high-winds and rain with no problems. The weatherproofing worked great (I stored clothes in the carrier using vacuum sealed bags, which I’d recommend as a precaution, but the bags stayed dry regardless.) Straps were sturdy and secure with just short of 100 lbs of storage. Get the slip mat for peace of mind, but be sure to cut it to size, as the flapping noise can be stressful. A couple of quick helpful pieces of info that helped me a LOT:-The space between the front and rear straps is just under 18”, so the spacing fit perfects on the same door of my ‘18 civic coupe (yes, fits 2 dr with no modification)-The bag is 15” tall with even & proper spacing, but larger items can still fit, since the carrier isn’t a solid shape.-100lbs was fine and the straps didn’t loosen on our trip: tie the extra strapping into knots for added safety, comfort and to prevent flapping noise while driving-It already says this on their website: The zipper goes around 3 sides, with the two zippers connecting in the middle. Mount the carrier with the zippers meeting in the back, as the continuous material being on the front will prevent any rain (or bugs, etc. in our case) from getting into your carrier. Again, weatherproofing was excellent.A great purchase. Dependable, sturdy design, and quality straps. Would recommend to anyone!

We purchased this early July of 2020. It came in a box probably a size of men’s shoe box. We have a sedan so we purchased the junior size 10cubic. It comes with 4 straps, 4 door clips and a pull string bag for storage if your not using it.We travelled from vancouver to kelowna 5hrs in a medium rain fall. 3 washroom break in between so we checked the bag on top 3 times it didn’t moved an inch!! When we got into the cabin, the blanket on the top is damp and everything else is dry. It is wet not because of the travel but because it is raining when we are packing. It fits 5 large inflatable recliners, 2 pumps, 1king size blanket, 2 snorkling sets and 1full beach bag but we didn’t over packed it, there is still room. We put a roll of anti-slip kitchen mat to protect the car that we cut to match the size of the bag. We have a cross bar roof rack so we don’t need to use the door clips. We also purchased a rachet strap just to secure it but we didn’t end up using it cause we don’t need it. The straps that goes with it is enough.With a total of 10hrs drive, all dry, didnt moved an inch, full of dead bugs in front the bag when we got home. :-) in total, it’s perfect for us! It is boyfriend approved!Ps: step tool is recommended to pack and unpacked.
