Customer Reviews

The bag is nice and the size is great (and the no PVC is where Thule needs to head).... BUT... it ripped the first day I used it (had a stroller in it, and the seam ripped straight through) and it is definitely not 'weather-proof', it rained for only a few minutes on our trip and the inside items were wet. Probably a great bag for soft items in the desert... but not for all the time use... Come on Thule! Make a better PVC free bag! We know you can do it.

I literally made this purchase while on vacation. We traveled 250 miles with the car fully loaded. Passengers were cramped. Many cars passed us having some kind of cargo device on their roof. We all were comparing different types along the way. So, I went online to compare prices and shipping. Just about everyone was at the same price point, but Amazon killed the competition with only 15.00 for 2 day shipping. It arrived in plenty of time and when we left to go home, the car had some room. The product is well made and with 13CF of space, it was a blessing. Storage at home was a breeze as well. I folded it back up, put it into the carrying case and hung it from a hook in the garage.
