X-Cargo X-Treme Car Top Carrier

This car top carrier worked very well for our trip to Florida. Mounted atop our 2008 Expedition, we experienced no wind noise and enjoyed extra interior room. The sleek design looked good and far more modern than the old style boxes. I rated 4 stars only because it did leak a little on our return trip. It rained very steadily for over 6 hours of the 19 hour trip. However, I did a lot of research prior to purchasing this model and they all seem to let in some water ~ based on others' reviews. Although water was present, the luggage and contents were dry as the water was in the bottom of the tray.

Needed modification but works fine and looks great!

I wanted a ski/cargo carrier for a ski trip with 2 other guys. I found one of these used, that had scratches and some mounting cracks for $50! I put the mounting plated on TOP and inside of the carrier. It makes sense to reinforce it from the inside! With the wingnuts hand tight it should not wobble, vibrate or crack. I used a good quality black sealant on the cracks. It does get a little water in it driving through a long heavy rain but I cut a mat and put it in the bottom. It worked great on my trip and even fits my 6'1" surfboard! I'd buy one new, I think it is worth the money.

Magnificent for a MiniVan

Excellent. The volume doubles the cargo space that is behind the back seat of a Grand Caravan / Town & Country mini-van, and the fuel cost was about 1.5 miles per gallon. You must have a factory roof rack to mount this carrier to the cross bars. The interlocking lid lock is great. No rain leakage. I used it on four trips from Washington DC to Kennedy Space Center last year. As you may know, traffic runs mostly at 10 MPH over the 'recommended' numbers on that interstate, and there was no noticeable wind noise.

Great Carrier at Super Price!

I bought this on sale online at a super price $242 and couldn't be happier! Picked it up at the local store and saved the $90 shipping cost and had it installed on my new 2013 Escapes existing vehicle rack within 1/2 hour for only $15. Looks Unbelievable and performs Awesome! Very little wind noise, aerodynamic and water tight! Drove 4 hours in a driving rain sleet storm with winds up to 40 mph and hardly a drop inside and no carrier movement. Locks solid and opens wide from the side. Exceeded my expectations. You won't get a better rack paying a couple hundred more. One tip for all carrier owners buy a moving blanket to drap inside. Great for protecting and eliminating shifting of skies or any other sporting equipment. And No I do not work or own Sears stock it's just a Super product! Buy one you won't be disappointed!

Light as a feather.

After initial assembly it is super easy to take on and off. Be sure to balance the load. Hold my camp chairs. does not affect the drive or gas mileage on my Honda Odyssey.

Great and economical

I've used this carrier on my '05 Chev Malibu for well over a year constantly. I attached it to my Yakima rack. I never took it off, I moved and had it stuffed with stuff. It hasn't leaked; doesn't seem to effect my gas milegage and is solid while driving. Great carrier and a lot less cost than the other brands.

X-cargo X-treme Car Top Carrier caused X-treme vibrations

<p>Bought this for big family vacation and had Sears install on my grand caravan.  Worked ok on first trip.  On second trip, after we had emptied it, started vibrating like crazy on the interstate.  Scared me to death.  My husband got out and tightened all the clamps as best he could, but still had problems when wind was blowing a certain direction.  Have tried again full, thinking it was the fact that it was empty, but it still  vibrates excessively at higher speed (&gt;55 mph) and at lower speeds under certain wind conditions.  It now sits in my garage as it is out of warranty and I refuse to use it...would rather travel for 10 hours with luggage on my lap than worry about that thing ripping the top off the van.  It was that bad!!</p>

Family car top carrier - Adequate not perfect

<p>Bought this from Sears because I had already used REI dividend to buy tent.  I would have splurged on a Yakima or Thule.  Got a good deal on this.  Have used it a couple of years stradled on top of a Chrysler Town &amp; Country.  Securing it to the roof rails is a challenge for the interior brackets - hinge side.  If there are tips/tricks to doing this - I am unaware.  Usually takes about 20 minutes to bolt on - in decent weather.  Okay storage for camping, ski trips, etc. for a family of five.  Apparently, this is made by Thule buy haven't confirmed.  If you can get it for around $250 - I would pull the trigger. </p>

X-Cargo great product

Because we travel with a dog, we decided to attach a cargo carrier to the top of the 4-Runner. At the time of the purchase four years ago, we paid the additional $40.00 to Sears Automotive to install an X-Cargo onto the roof. It was well worth the $40.00. Since then, we have down-sized and purchased a RAV-4. Unfortunately, the carrier extended over the roof and windshield, making it less efficient driving in wind, and overall aerodynamics, and reduced gas mileage. We also installed it ourselves onto the new RAV4, and probably didn't do the good job that Sears had done on the 4-Runner. Moreover, we dented the roof of the new car slightly as we lifted the carrier onto the roof. Needless to say, due to the positioning of the carrier, age, and improper installation, the X-Cargo cracked and oscillated on an out of state trip. We stopped, unloaded the contents into the backof the vehicle, put the dog between the kids and left the carrier at a Nissan dealership. We miss the X-Cargo, but will see what carrier products Sears has to meet the fit of the current auto we own.

Damaged

We went through a lot of trouble to get this particular cargo carrier and when we finally got it the corner was cracked. We exchanged it for the less expensive model (rear loading) and it has been great! Glad we saved ourselves $100.

Great car top carrier, solid and dry when it rains

I have had a Sears X-Cargo Xtreme carrier for about four years and it has allowed me to drive a small-ish car and take my family, including the dog, on vacation. There is lots of room in it but it has a very aerodynamic profile. I used it for years on a Ford Focus wagon, which had a built on roof rack with cross bars. I noticed no effect on the car's gas mileage. I just came back from a 3,000 mile trip in a new car (Honda Fit) and had no problems with the carrier. I had it attached to a Yakima car top rack and it stayed solidly attached to the round bars of the Yakima rack. I was a bit concerned starting out because with this new car the Sears carrier sits more forward than it did on the Ford station wagon, with the box extending about 18&quot; in front of the front Yakima bar and overhanging the front windshield by three or four inches. I could lean forward and look up through the windshield and see the front of the carrier. Even at 70+ mph there was only a very slight vibration in the carrier - absolutely none of the wobble that others have reported. I can't imagine HOW one could ever get very much movement given the rigidity of the Sears Xtreme carrier (which I believe is made by Thule - mine certainly LOOKS the same as other people's Thule boxes). The only thing I can imagine is if one's crossbars are flexible, then maybe you'd get some movement. I haven't had my Honda Fit long enough to know what the gas mileage is without the Sears Xtreme carrier, but with it I averaged about 31 mpg, about 2 mpg less than the EPA highway estimate. Other people's comments on the tricky-ness on attaching the carrier to a car top rack are legitimate. It is not that the attachment is technically complicated, it is just hard to get the far side (driver's side) attached without using a step stool and another person to help. With somebody else to hold the screws in place as you reach into the inside to turn the attachments it is fine. Once on it is good to go and I have never had to stop and retighten anything in mid-route. The wind noise is not a problem (and it in fact eliminates the quite loud noise my empty Yakima rack makes). The locking mechanism continues to work well and it creates a positive three point closure (you can't get the key out of the lock unless the locking pins are fully engaged). This has need a great carrier - it was a comparative bargain relative to Thule and Yakima products. Without it (or something like it), I would have to own a much bigger car.

Purchased this cargo carrier a while back, it has been great! Holds more than you think it would and is extremely easy to hook up and take off.

Works perfect with some modifications

I was a bit reluctant to purchase this cargo carrier after reading some of the negative reviews, and even more worried when I first installed mine and saw it making the same nerve-racking 'oscillations' that eventually destroy the carrier that others were talking about. However, with a very simple modification, this cargo carrier works perfectly and is dramatically more stable, so I thought I would share. The fix is to add two 4 ft slotted angle bars inside: (here's a link to the part: http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1v/R-202183536/h_d2/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10053&langId=-1&keyword=slotted+angle&storeId=10051) that span from the front to the back of the box, attached where the rack bracket bolts fasten, and done on both the left and right sides. So for about $30 more, it is signficantly stronger, and even doubles as a rail for hooking bungee cords or other tie downs to secure the load inside. After this modification, I can now drive at freeway speeds, even with an empty box without worry and very little if any vibration. I wonder why they don't just manufacture these this way... So in summary, if you're slightly handy and are willing to make this modification, this is an excellent cargo carrier for the price and I'd recommend it. If you'd rather not have to make modifications, you may want to try a different carrrier.

Worked great!! Best buy for the money.

<p>After reading all of the other reviews I was skeptical and a little aprehensive, but for the money I had to take a chance on it and boy am I glad I did. For starters, it has the same bottom of the Thule at least even though the top is different than the Thule. I decided to mount it to my Yakims rack and ended up not using the mounting hardware it cam with. I can see how some cannot seem to get it to mount securley but you need to be smart about how you do it. I used the mounting plates that it came with and bolted them to the carrier bottom, then used some Yalkima feet and one single 5/16&quot; bolt through the center. This makes it come off and on in about one minute and is extremely secure and will not wobble. The trip was just under 1500 miles and had rain, snow and heavy wind; not a single drop of water on the inside. If you overstuff it you will have a gap at the front. This will happen with any brand that does not have the hinge or a lock at the front of the unit.</p> <p>If you have two people to help mount it that is great but it can be done by yourself too with a litte patience. I used it on a Honda Odyssey so a step ladder was all that was needed for accessing it. Buy it and just take your time, you will not regret it.</p>

Sears X-Treme Car Top Carrier

I bought this in Feb 2010. I took it on a road trip from Colorado to Arizona and didn't have a problem. I then went on a road trip from Colorado to Utah in Jun 2011 and the car top carrier wobbled the whole way at highway speeds. People were looking and pointing like it was going to fall off. I pulled over and redistributed the weight, but nothing seemed to work. I then went on a camping trip, upon returning and removing the carrier I found the plastic part of the carrier had cracked. Of course it is outside of the 1 year warranty. This carrier was removed after every trip and never stayed on top of my 4 runner when not in use. X-Cargo also recommends not using the carrier unless at 50 pounds are in it. I would caution a person before buying this carrier. Thule and Yakima seem to have better warranties and people are able to leave them installed when not in use.

X-Treme Cargo

<p>Worked perfectly. The installation is not difficult at all and is completely intuitive. The mounting brackets are all-metal. The Thule apparently uses bulky plastic brackets? I did need a helper to hold the bolts on the far side while I snugged them but it still took less than five munutes to install from start to first-bag-in. Drove at high speeds up to 80mph with no noise, no shifting and no apparent impact on gas mileage. Mounted to a Honda element I found only a 1 mpg difference from other trips. We drove 1600 miles with this thing fully loaded without an issue. There was no noise when we drove with it empty either. We'll never travel again wtihout this on top of the car. Virtually all of our luggage fits inside, protected from weather. This roof-top carrier is a great value.</p>

X-Cargo Sport 20-SV Car Top Carrier is reliable, safe & sound!

<p><strong>Don't understand other negative reviews.  We bought this to move a lot of our belongings to our vacation home in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.  <em>We attached it to the top of our Avalanche and packed it to the limit.  We traveled to and fro Puerto Vallarta twice using this and NO PROBLEMS, NO TROUBLES at all!</em> Aerodynamics was great, weatherproof and security was great, never wobbled or made wierd noises like some other reviewers are saying.  <em>Definitely recommend this product.</em></strong></p>

Wobbles, bangs and makes driving more difficult

<p>I ignored the reviews convinced we'd find a way to keep it stable and it was on sale !  On a week long trip with heavy items in it the wobbling was at 65mph but otherwise okay at other speeds.  This last trip - mostly filled with duffle bags full of clothing the carrier went crazy (2011 Highlander and installed per the instructions).  I doubt returning it will work so I'm going to look for a carrier wind shield and hope that does the trick or try out some bungee cords.  I drove with it empty today and at 70mph it started wacking the top of my car (vs just flapping up and down when loaded).  Lovely.  I'm not sure Thule roof carriers are any better but I do wish I had bought the Thule carrier that is installed on the back of the car.</p>

DON'T BUY THIS CAR TOPPER UNLESS ....

<p>Don't buy this car topper unless you are a lucky gambler.  Odds are against you 2:1.  Most likely the topper will wobble and if it does, it WILL crack from the strain if you continue to use it. If you notice it wobbles and return it, you get smacked with a 15% restocking fee. One out of three chance it will work for you. We used ours for only THREE trips before it developed a large crack down the side. Sears stood by their waranty and said it was out of the 1 year warranty and they did NOTHING. How many trips do you take in a year? We were out $300. Just because the topper fits on your vehicle doesn't mean it should be on your vehicle. I fault Sears and Thule for recommending this topper for our Nissan Quest. Yes it fit, but areodynamically it doesn't work. Shame on them for not testing their product on the vehicles before recommending it. If you already own this topper, be sure to cram an old towel under the front end to lessen the wobble.</p>
