Satisfied Skier
By New Jersey Ski Bum
Installation on factory roof rack is very user friendly; dial type clamps are easy to position correctly and hold very securely. Box is very stable even at highway speeds--no vibration or rattling and relatively minor wind noise. Dials for clamps infringe a bit on interior box space but convenience of the clamps makes the tradeoff worthwhile. Will hold 3 to 4 pr of alpine skis comfortably.

Good Product easy to install
By Dee
This unit is light and easy to install. My only concern is the method used to constrain the items placed in the unit. This unit comes with two straps about 6' long, they are connected to the internal clamping units via a slot in the plastic clamps. This is time consuming to thread the strap and cinch the items down. A better method would be to have a solid place to hook bungee cords.Driving with this on did not produce any noise and only reduced my mileage by 1mpg.Unit says it can hold 5 pair of skis, I would like to see some loading examples/suggestions in the instructions.

By Penelope
My husband and I were moving cross-country and we needed some extra space in the car, and honestly, we should have gotten a cargo box years ago instead of cramming our skis into the back of the SUV. We couldn't be happier with this box! It was a breeze to attach to the factory-installed roof racks that come with our Ford Escape. And even though some reviews bemoaned the interior straps, really those weren't difficult, and were good and strong for strapping things down. Once we got on the road, this box really proved its chops. We drove over 1500 miles, highway speeds, through some NASTY rains and wind, and the box was quiet and did not leak at all!! We're fantastically happy with the purchase, and now that we're settled into our new home, we look forward to using it for next winter's ski trips!
