It’s great!! I got five seats in the 4Runner . I got five bikes on the back. Super sturdy, interstate or local; rain, or shine.Need a bike rack for five? don’t think,just get it.

This bike rack is very easy to use. Installing and uninstalling takes less than 5 mins and can be done by one person. It is very study. We needed it for various kinds and sizes of bikes (kids and cruiser bike). The rack held all our bikes while we drove 300km of highway to our destination. I would highly recommend.

like it a lot. I particularly like the fact that the fasterners are permanently connected to the rack. Only thing I don't like is that it really takes two hands to lower the bar to get into the trunk and this sometimes is a problem.

The angle of the top bar isn't adjustable, and often feels too steep as bikes can easily fall off the mounting spot. That is exacerbated by the low-quality straps that are used to secure the bikes. These straps are very difficult to take off if they are put on tight. In addition, the securing mechanism that keeps the whole rack mounted in the trailer hitch is not well designed, and my entire rack fell off once on an extra bumpy dirt road. Do not recommend it.

Too heavy. Excellent quality.

So far working as it should. Very pleased. The only negative thing to say would be that the sticker started to peal off almost right away. At least a couple of the letters have. I don’t want to peel them off completely but I may have no choice eventually

You need to install the lock to tighten the hitch. Nice heavy duty rack, worth the price.
