"I use them to tie down my 18 foot hobie tandem island to the trailer.I was a little concerned that they wouldnt hold on a long trip but performed beautifully.They,re a great time saver verses ratchet straps.I was always worried about over tightening with the ratchet straps."
"Ordered 1 box last Christmas and when I bought more ornament boxes I ordered another set of these straps."
"I have been using these straps to carry my heavy canoe on my mini van on more than 2 dozen highway trips and this has held on quite well."

"Be sure to look over all the instructions along with identifying all the parts and see how they go together before going out to the car. This kit is to fit a Dodge neon, and has clips that slide on the rib along the roof over which the doors close."
"I bought a new truck (2015 F150) and needed to purchase a new "fit kit" so the rubber feet would adapt to the new styled roof since I'm using Thule crossbars and the Hullavator system."
"I had some trouble installing because the instructions weren't clear that the clamps are numbered and one pair is front specific and the other is rear specific (964 for the rear, 965 for the front)."
"However, I took a chance and it works perfectly!"
"It's okay, I don't really like that Thule sells the racks ala carte, and everything Thule is spendy."
"Fit perfectly on my Honda Civic, but its not something you see too often."
"Product had some wear and appeared to have been possibly used at some point."

The "stinger," which is the part that slides into your vehicle receiver hitch, has an upward bend that gives the rack more ground clearance. Another advantage of the extra ground clearance is that the rack sits high enough that it is totally protected by the vehicle. As you drive, the rack is in the vehicle's slipstream, so there's no additional drag that reduces gas mileage as you drive. With some racks, you might risk having the exhaust melt your cargo bag. Buy a locking hitch pin on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0009V1WS4/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_10), which is helpful to keep the rack from being stolen while you're spending the night in a hotel. The hitch tightener will prevent that wobble, so as you're driving down the road and hit a rough patch, you won't hear a bumping sound from the hitch rack behind you. Buy a quality cargo carrying bag to use with your rack. The bag also comes with built in lashing straps so you can secure the bag to the cargo rack. If you are looking at other hitch racks, don't get caught up in how much weight they will hold. You will also want to check the tongue weight rating on your vehicle to see if your vehicle can even withstand 500 lbs of tongue weight. As I was driving across the country, I saw many other vehicles with hitch racks."
"This is a very rugged rack."
"I like the tight mesh floor, but if you use the Pro Series 7330 Stretch Net Cargo Net it is hard to get the large plastic hooks into, so I got creative with a combo of hooking to rails and wrapping under to hooks from other side of net."
"12460 TELESCOPIC SAFETY FLAG. For legality reasons, rear side markers in the form of 1" red reflector tape trimmed to height of vertical side supports (Purchased at local hardware store but similar to the product below). Salzmann Waterproof Diamond Grade 3M Scotchlite reflective stickers. StowAway Hitch Tightener. License plate relocation with light for DOT compliance: LAMPHUS Cruizer Horizontal Bar Clamp Mounting Kit 1"/ 1.5"/ 1.75" (Includes 1 clamp). Peterson M436B Clear License Plate Light with Steel Bracket. The mounts/clamps for the license plate did not fit snug enough over the square tube, but this was fixed with a small 1-1/2" long piece of serpentine belt placed into one of the side of the mount before placing over the bar."

On the trip home driving 65mph there were strong crosswinds pressing on the kayaks, so strong that the front aero bar bent up on the left (see photo) and the continued force of the wind caused the right aero bar bracing to slip off the side rail. Thankfully the brace jammed on the inside edge of the side rail instead of flying completely off, and thankfully the Malone racks held strong, and the kayaks remained strapped tight. I pulled over, re-fit the left jammed side brace, moved the rack further out over the right bar bracing, and drove the rest of the way at about 50mph due to the prevailing winds and concern that the bent rack would slip out again."
"I have never had kayak carriers before. From reading reviews about the Malone Load Assist, it seemed to me that individuals that happen to post pictures & had problems did not use Malone kayak carriers."
"Long story short not only did I get it home in one piece but while unhooking it I realized my dad who helped me strap it down had put the tie down strap on the back carrier through a little wire bracket that is only there to keep the tie downs out of the way while loading it and unbelievably it didn't break off. (the tie downs are supposed to go around the actual bar on the rack, it will make sense when you see it in person). And with the convenience of never having to remove them sense they fold down there a definitely worth the extra $50 over the stationary ones."
"I installed these in the dark, with a large number of mosquitoes nipping at me. But I had some very nice Thule straps that have the little "mitten" for the cleat."
"Really wanted to give this a positive review, but the product showed up missing the clamps and bolts needed to actually attach it to my crossbars."
