Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)We bought this cargo box after reading reviews of people who bought smaller sizes and wished for more room.Yes, it is more expensive, but it has all the room we need for our growing family, and is durable enough that I can easily see it outlasting our vehicle.It is light weight, but I wouldn't call it fragile.The only scenario I can imagine it cracking is through abuse, like someone stepping right on the middle of it or something.
There is a huge amount of space.It has pretty much the same footprint as our three-cushion sofa.I worried that it would protrude off the front badly on our Kia Sedona, but it fits nicely and looks like it belongs there.It's unobtrusive enough that we don't mind just leaving it on there if it's only a couple weeks until the next trip.We borrowed a fabric cargo bag previously, which we always took off when unpacking at our destination because inevitably a strap end would come loose and bang all over the place.This cargo box has no such issues.
Installation was a snap.It took under 10 minutes, including installing the crossbars on our roof rack, which weren't included.Compared to the fabric cargo bag we used previously, this is easier to install, holds more, and is easier to load.The hinges which let you open it from either side are ingenious.It's a little awkward off the car, but feels as natural while on the car as opening a hatch back.Unlike some other models I've read reviews for, this one came fully assembled.Despite its size, it is light enough I could probably put it on the roof myself if necessary, but with my wife helping to lift it, it was very easy.
It rains frequently here, and we haven't had any problems with leaks, but we haven't tested it in rain at freeway speeds yet.
Check out my customer image.It shows the Atlantis 2100 packed and hinged open.
