Rooftop Cargo Carrier Bag 20 Cubic feet

This has been amazing and a life saver! It took me forever to figure out how to modify it the way I needed so while I don't do many reviews, I'm going deep on this one. I don't get paid for reviews and have no affiliations with any product links below. Just sharing what I did because other reviews gave me some good ideas to run with. I looked at lot of bags and I'm sure there are others that are just as good, but this one seems to be as advertised. I would highly recommend it and I would also recommend a few at home upgrades to make your traveling easier. I've taken it on two trips over 1,000 miles total on highways, bumpy roads, through winding mountains, and have had ZERO issues. I also didn't even notice it was there while driving...except for me constantly checking on it just in case. It only rained one day when it was parked and empty, but zero water came in. From what I can tell I don't see this not being able to withstand a severe storm as long as the rain isn't coming at you backwards from the ground and getting in the seam. The material is thick like a swimming pool liner and sewn together well. On the second trip (not pictured) we had the entire bag full, and every side was pushing out a little bit. The bag held up great and handled an insane amount of camping gear and suitcases. From what I can remember we had 1 extra-large suitcase, 3 check size suitcases, 3 backpacks, 5 camping chairs, 5 sleeping bags, random equipment, folding tables, and a lot of outdoor family games. Because we have captains chairs and use a third row in the vehicle there is almost zero trunk space so for 2 adults and 3 kids. I need this to last. Below are some ideas you might find helpful for long term use and travel. - I put in a PVC frame after looking at other reviews. Great idea!! Can't tell you how much easier it was to load, unload, and tie down. I also think anyone that has water getting in the bag is having that problem because the bag is folding over itself. It took a minute to build, and I did make it a tight fit. The vinyl has stretched ever so slightly after we jam packed it for two long hauls and now it's a little easier to zip up. - A friend just bought and used a roof bag for his family (different brand) on the trip we went on. I am so happy that I chose the hitch route. Even if I had to buy a hitch trailer for the bag vs. going with a rooftop bag I would. Their roof was caving in and packing and unpacking was horrible. A mother-in-law that was helping them fell and hurt herself, so if you go the roof route, pack a small ladder. - I did order the pad for a rooftop carrier and put it at the bottom of the bag under the PVC pipe frame. I was worried about something puncturing the bottom if the wrong gear was thrown in there haphazardly. - I also ordered and cut a rubber floor mat like you see in restaurant kitchens to go on top of the metal rack on the cargo hitch so the vinyl bag didn't rub against it and somehow tear. I highly suggest putting something between whatever bag you buy and the rack. Otherwise, every bump will slowly rub against your bag and eventually wear a hole in it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073QMGDB8?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details - The straps work very well. It may take a second to figure out, but once you do they actually stay without issue. Not one came loose on either of the long hauls. HOWEVER, on the first trip I forgot to address the slack in the straps after cinching them so I quickly grabbed some binder clips and they held for a roundtrip 500-mile drive over 80 mph. I wasn't really happy with the look so I got some Velcro I could cut and use to cinch them on the next trip. They worked great. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B7XX9MBV?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details - And because it's always better to be safe than sorry, I purchased a lock I could thread through carrier rack and over the bag a few times. This ensures the bag doesn't go flying off the hitch if the straps ever do fail and is a decent deterrent for anyone looking to get in there while it's parked and you are in a store or restaurant. If someone wants to get in they can just cut it, but I think this definitely deters your standard person that would just take advantage of a random situation. I also know the bag isn't going anywhere when I'm driving and that is a piece of mind that makes the purchase worth it. Again, the straps haven't moved at all, but.... if they did for whatever reason this would be the safety net. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QYCLK28?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details - Didn't even bother with the combo lock because of above. It's your standard airport luggage style lock that you should use if it's all you have. Again, if they want in the bag.. any bag you find like this no matter the fabric, it can be cut into. - My particular, old, hitch carrier does not have any rails to cinch the straps on to. If yours is the same, then I suggest using these straps and putting them through the grate before you put on the rubber mat or the bag. I put the lower straps through them to cinch and voila. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N1NV536?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details - And lastly, when you go on a trip that isn't packing the bag full I recommend some bungees that can go from one side to the other and keep anything from bouncing around. I used these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08F73XDPM?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details - I am not collapsing this bag after use and instead am using it to store camping gear and other frequent travel items that are kind of a pain to store. For this purpose, I put two pieces of Velcro over the top section of the PVC so they can catch the outside of the bag and help it keep its shape even when it's not zipped up. All in all, I got the bag on a lightening deal and thought heck.. that was cheap. Then, I did all of the above and killed the "cheap" deal. However, I feel like I can get a lot of use out of this bag and if it ever does die on me the rest of the items are all transferrable to the new one. For the quality, the size, and the price, this is a good purchase you won't regret it. I've had several compliments wherever we go.

I bought this cargo carrier in June and waited till I had a couple of trips with it to review. I took 2 trips from Texas to Colorado for a total of 3200 miles and it worked perfectly!! We drove through several major rain storms and high winds with absolutely zero issues. The carrier remained waterproof with no damage noted. The straps that are included tied down securely to my roof rails but i also used 3 ratchet straps for extra security. But I feel the included straps would hold up just fine. Setting up the carrier was actually very easy and only took maybe 15 minutes to place on the car, load all the gear and strap down. the first time. With every other use my time was less and less. Once I secured the carrier to the roof it did not move AT ALL!! It did not slide or shift and the included grip mat held in place and caused no damage to my paint. I was able to stow a very large amount including luggage, crates, boxes and bags. This thing saved so much room inside my jeep. For the price this carrier is a solid purchase!!

I was hesitant to purchase this bag as I had bought a travel bag in the past that was not waterproof and ended up ruining my luggage. But after traveling to and from the beach (approx 650 miles round trip) I am sold on this bag. We have a 2018 Chrysler Pacifica and this bag took up almost the entire roof. My only complaint is that the installation can be a bit time consuming and a struggle mostly due to the amount of straps and the way in which they tighten. Although, with that being said, the amount of straps (3 on each side and 2 in front and 2 in the back) this bag did not move an inch the entire trip. I was able to place a large suitcase, medium suit case, large duffel bag, boogie board, two children folding chairs, a 10ftx10ft folding canopy and a large beach tote in this bag and still honestly could have fit more as the bag had room to expand upward after zipping it all the way. This drastically saved us space in the van for stretching out and being comfortable. We did not encounter any rain (surprisingly) but I loaded this up the night before we left and that morning there was a lot of dew on the bag and when I unzipped it to place something else in it, there were no signs of water or any leaking inside the bag. The initial installation took me about an hour but this was me messing around and trying to figure the best way of configuring the roof luggage supports on our van. My second time installing it took me only 15-20 minutes. Pros - Durable material, large space, durable zipper, multiple straps allow it to be tightened all around, anti-slip mat really helps to hold it in place. Cons - Straps can be a pain to adjust and tighten (especially if they are wet), the zipper is tight and somewhat difficult to fully zip especially in the back (had to climb on top of van to reach it) If you are looking for a cheap and easy way to store A LOT of good, then this is the way to go!!

Five star ⭐ Just go for it Very useful coverd 500 KM

Très satisfait

Not a original product, no logo or extra orange stripes to the zipper but product quality is ok, have to try once. Purchased it for Rs 3799/-

Clear evidence that this was a return and tried to ship it to another customer. Received the cargo bag dirty and all tie-down straps were unravelled and instruction page was all crumpled. I contacted MeeFar (manufacturer) directly and although they can’t help me directly because I live in Canada they were very helpful. I’m just writing this review so the manufacturer doesn’t get a bad rap. You might be asking why don’t I just return it for a new and clean one. I need the cargo bag right away because of planned trip. Still waiting to hear back from the seller but doubt very much anything will come from this.
