Quality Issues
Worked great first two times. Kept luggage dry through heavy rain and sleet. But after third use I took it off the car and there were multiple holes in it. I am currently trying to find a place to complain to the company but can't. I would not recommend this carrier.

so far so good
We have used this carrier once. So far so good. We did notice that if you allow wind to get under the fron of the carrier it will vibrate and make a lot of noise. As long as it's positioned farther back, it works well. We fit a pack and play, two sleeping bags, a tent, furniture pad, air mattress, and two king sized pillows in it. Worth it for the money.

8 YEARS AND STILL WORKING GREAT
I bought mine from pet boys for about on sale. I have used it many-many times. I travel from MI to FL and back at 2 or 3 times a year. I holds 2 medium soft suitcases and other soft type items.
I Have traveled through many rain and snow storms so I am sure it is waterproof (being made of very heavy vinyl). You must sure the zipper is always covered by the vinyl flap. The straps have held all this time. It is super easy to tie down. Never have the straps slipped during many thousands of miles in terrible weather. Once the straps are tightI dont even worry about any more. The only reason I would give it 4 stars vs. 5 is due to the zipper. In cold weather it is hard to zip and one of the zipper handles broke. Also it is a bit cumbersome to load due to the zipper configuration. Because mine is so old I was going to replace it with nice looking a soft cover Thule carrier, however I am concerned they are not as waterproof because of the canvas. I will probably buy another one due to the fact it is cheap but works.

Not What It Is Advertised
We purchased this product on 4/3/07 & received it on 4/7/07. The first thing I noticed in the packing on 4/7/07 were the terms that "Returns must be made within 30 days of purchase", though the box indicated Guaranteed Waterproof. Since we were leaving for Yellowstone the end of April and planned to use the carrier, I first packed a few items and tested it on our vehicle before we left. It seemed to do well in the rain with limited interstate use. However, when we left and drove 70mph on the interstates, the pack flopped up & down on our vehicle, and one strap broke loose on the interstate. The teeth in the strap buckles would not secure for very long and four straps at four hand sewn points would not secure the pack. This was so after the straps were knotted. Two states later I bought two bungy cords that secured the pack. Also after a downpour in Wyoming, the pack also leaked inside. When we returned on 5/7/07, the 30 days had expired. Hence, I consider this pack a waste of money.
