 THULE 2 BIKE TRUNK RACK July 12, 2008
James E. SILVERSTORF (NORFOLK, VA)
CARRIED 2 BIKES FROM VIRGINIA TO MICHIGAN AND BACK - OVER 1400 MILES. INSTALLATION DIRECTIONS WERE GOOD. MY 11 YEAR OLD GRANDSON HELPED ME INSTALL ON SIENNA VAN - NOT DIFFICULT AT ALL. BIKES STAYED PUT DURING TRIP.
very pleased October 28, 2008

The first time we tried to put the rack on the van it took us about an hour... Once it was completed we couldn't believe it took so long. Now it takes 5 min and off we go. It's very sturdy.
 Nice Rack May 5, 2008

I've used this bike rack for over 10,000 miles across the U.S., on two sedans and one SUV. It's always been secure and rock solid (tried only one bike) at every speed I've driven, ranging from highways to gravel roads in all weather. It is an effective bike carrier and I do recommend it. There are some minor pitfalls though.
The mounting is tricky, with any car. It took me 40 minutes the first time, now I can do it in 15, ensuring everything's good. The documentation isn't terribly clear either because the actual mounting is a nonlinear process. You'll need to factor the rack mounting into your "getting ready" time. Tying up excess length on the straps is troublesome; you'll probably be rolling them up and taping them together. So you'll need tape with this rack. Last, its two screwknobs are easily lost and the product could have well been designed with a better mechanism for adjusting the rack to fit other cars. These are minor though, and the rack does carry a bike quite well.
Things to note about trunk racks in general:
They're easy theft targets; at the end of the day, the canvas straps can be cut and the whole assembly stolen. This is acceptable for driving and stopping along an interstate, but not for sitting in the Ikea lot all day. Mounting the rack also renders the trunk inaccessible, entailing some foresight when loading the car for a multi-stop trip.
Works great for the price May 22, 2007

I have no real complaints. The rack is sturdy and seems very well-built. I'm definitely happy with the purchase. The only slightly annoying this is that there's no built-in way to secure the extra slack in the straps once you've tightened everything down, so you either need to secure them yourself (i.e. rubber bands or something similar) or they'll flap around while you drive. I'm going to try to buy some velcro straps to serve this purpose, but a built-in solution would have been nice.
Overall though, I'm happy with the purchase. It provides a very reasonably priced solution. I wouldn't suggest getting any cheaper model than this one though unless it's for very short drives. The anti-sway clips on this one serve an important purpose and I don't believe the cheaper models offer this.
No complaints - a solid rack September 4, 2007

I initially bought a $50 Schwinn rack at Target but took it back as the bikes didn't seem very solid (more sway then I was comfortable with).
This rack is quite solid on a Saturn Vue. The "dial" setting let's you configure for your car. It goes on quick and easy, and it is quite secure. Very happy with this unit.
