"Great roofbox. Bought for a Holliday as space i'n the car was max'd out. easy to fit and plenty of room for the price. When on the car I could here no wind noise at all, at times completely forgot it was there at times.
Great value. Only complaint is it comes with only one key, that stopped it getting 5 stars."

Pros: good value, easy to fit and remove, loads of extra space, no noticeable effect on the fuel consumption, no effect on car handling
Cons: only comes with one key., hinges are only plastic and look a little flimsy, bit of leakage in prolonged rain on motorway
"I bought this as I have a small car and now also have a baby, and the 2 things have become incompatible on long journeys with loads of things to take with us. Roof box was the solution. Its easy to fit, and take off again. Plus it was reduced at the time of purchase.
We did a 300 mile journey in driving rain with it, and there was only a small amount of water that was forced inside. This was expected and there was less than I thought there may be. Overall I am really pleased with the roof box and would recommend it. Roll on next summer for camping.

"Needed a roof box in a rush, reserved this one, would suggest you phone the store to ensure they have reserved before you collect, I just about got the last one. This roof box is fine - does the job. Easy to put onto the roof of the car and we managed to get lots in there. Not noisy when driving, didn't notice it was on the car at all."

"Reserved online on a saturday afternoon, phoned by shop witihn 10 mins to say they were out of stock as they had sold al 5 that day.(It was the 1st sat of the school summer holidays). THey did reserved me another at another store close by.
Product is good. Good value at sale price. Usual fault is only 1 key supplied.
THis sized box is excellent for a family in a hatchback. It can take a buggy and a travel cot plus a couple of smaller bags easily.

Pros: spacious, lightweight, stylish looking, good value
Cons: rear opening makes loading difficult, bit flimsy but does the job
"got this roof box for our camping gear and not disappointed in the amount we could fit - two tents (4man and 2man) 2 camping tables, 4 fold down chairs, sleeping bags, camping stoves, linen, etc, you name it, we fitted it! Can't give this roof box a perfect rating though due to it's flimsiness -needs two people to lift the lid as it "bends" and wobbles. The rear opening makes loading and unloading a bit difficult so would be great with side opening. Also, can be a bit fiddly to unlock and open, perhaps a handle would be a good addition as well. But overall a great value for money roof box, especially with the extra discount when we ordered it on-line."

"decent roof box that is easy to fit and holds a fair amount of kit. used it last weekend to go camping and could easily fit the halfords 4 persons tent kit, 2 collapsable chairs and table with other bits and pieces.
some other areas of space that could have been filled but not easy to fill 100% due to rear opening.
good piece of kit and good value. perfect size for a 3 series BMW - any bigger and it would look a bit daft and would overhang the roof area."

"As stated with the roof bars I spent ages looking at boxes and bars to suit our car, a small 4x4. This box was ideal in size and I wanted the rear opening as it means we can stand on the large rear bumper and reach in/rummage about with a good footing. The single lock key is a bit cost cutting and although I can get others cut its another task on the list. The hinges occasionally stick but this is minor complaint and a small handle to raise/lower the box lid would help. I really am pleased with the box and with the on line saving it really was good value. It will be used in anger properly next week when we tour fully loaded as everything will go in the roof box as the dog cage fills the cars interior."

"Overall the box is good. You can get quite a bit into it. It feels quite flimsy. Don't buy this box if you car is quite high as the lock is on the back. I have a Kia Carens 6 seater and I cannot unlock the bock without getting a pair of steps to reach it. It takes two of us, one either side to open and close the box but we can fit a lot into it, again using a set of steps."
