 Dry as a bone!! August 16, 2008
I was a little reluctant to buy this carrier because there were reviews that it wasn't as water resistant as described. Well let me reassure everyone that this carrier is WATER TIGHT!!!! We came home from our vacation in a horrible rain storm . We were travelling for 6 hours in the pouring rain on major highways and when we got home EVERYTHING inside this carrier was BONE DRY!!!! Maybe the other people didn't follow the direction on having the zipper side to the back and that's why things got wet because we did not have one drop of water inside this carrier.
The only thing that I would have liked this carrier to be was a little bit bigger. But dosen't everyone want BIGGER!
 Rain-X Roof Top Carrier August 6, 2008

We purchased this roof carrier to replace one of the large, hard plastic clamshell carriers we had used for years. With our kids getting older and moving away, we didn't need the large carrier any more and could use the space it took up in our garage. We used the Rain-X carrier for the first time this past weekend -- our annual camping trip in the Adirondacks. It holds a good amount of soft goods (like sleeping bags and clothes bags) and kept everything dry, even during a torrential rain storm. The material is very stiff, which made loading a little more difficult than we anticipated. Also, the only opening is in the rear and if you can't easily get to it from the rear of the car, it's a good idea not to tie it down right away so the opening can be shifted to one side of the car for easier loading. After loading up the bag, we shifted it back into place and secured it down. It did not move -- even at highway speeds. It was just what we were looking for.

 RAIN-X May 20, 2008
It held what it was suppose to hold, keeping it pretty water-tight. But some very serious false advertising. Does NOT use any RAIN-X product just uses the name. It says it is water proof on the package but the info inside says that it is only water resistant. I am glad it didn't rain to test it. The straps were okay. a pain to work with.
Rain-x definately waterproof May 2, 2008
This luggage carrier held much more than I'd imagined it would. We drove through two rainstorms & everything inside was totally dry! We're completely satisfied. Great product at a great price!
