Waterproof 19 Cubic Feet Rooftop Cargo Carrier Bag – Heavy Duty Car Roof Storage with Double Zipper & Tie Down Straps – Fits Cars with or Without Roof Rack

As a family of five, we often take long trips, and this RoofPax cover has become an essential part of our travel gear. It fits everything we need, and the backpacks are secure and stay dry, no matter the weather. Having the luggage on top gives us more flexibility when arranging the seats, allowing our kids to sleep comfortably during the journey. The quality is impressive, and it’s easy to use. If you're planning on making family road trips, I highly recommend this product!

Instructions were lacking but overall this worked awesome. After I installed it for a 9+ hour road trip, I stopped periodically to make sure it was OK and still strapped down well.. especially since areas I’d be driving had speed limits posted at 85 so everyone is obviously doing 95 to 100. It held up just fine each way. Quality was good, and on our return we had some weather from Beryl which meant HEAVY rain. Everything remained dry. This was a great buy, tons of room, easy to set up, easy to remove. Stayed strapped down solid the whole trip. There was also no noise in the cabin with it installed. MPG suffered but I had it loaded to the max, so that’s unavoidable. I definitely recommend this if you’re in the need for a roof storage system. Each time you stop (gas, food, breaks, etc) I recommend checking the straps. I had no problems, but you don’t want to lose your cargo. This is well designed and good quality. I mounted to roof rails with no cross bars.

I bought this bag months ago, but finally recently used it. I have been through several types of bags over my years of needing a rooftop cargo bag. This bag has had a lot of thought and quality go into it. The bag holds A LOT! I got the 28cu ft. I love the 3 bag option but only used 1 of the bags on this recent trip, and used the remaining free space for larger items. I love that the bag can be opened all the way so I can be sure to use the bag to full potential if needed. The zipper closes easily, and seems well made for a lot of use. I recently threw away two other bags after other small trips due to breaking zippers. Next, I love the velcro on the straps to limit how tight I need to tie down the straps. We drove well over 70mph for 2 hours both ways and a strap never needed adjusting. The bag is waterproof, and not made out of rigid waterproof material that is hard to handle. My only minor complaint is the bags made for use inside of the bag can not be carried by the straps if the bag is heavy. We had maybe 15 lbs worth of items and the handle started to tear off the bag. Once we noticed that, it changed how we handled the bag, but it is still usable. I will update this post after my next trips in a few weeks if there is anything to add or that may change this review, but I do not see that happening.

I love this bag so much I need to shorten my review! Me: 5' 4", 60 year old disabled female who travels between Tucson and Detroit every summer. I bought a new RAV4 hybrid and didn't want to damage my car with putting anything directly on the roof with a sunroof so I also ordered a luggage rack along with the Roof Pax bag. I already had factory installed roof rails so I didn't need to buy those. Both arrived quickly and without damage and no missing parts. Very easy install for both items. I opened the bag and did a trial run for packing it on my living room floor. This helped me a great deal for time. I installed both items myself very easy. I am short, so I needed a ladder to haul everything up and overhead. There's the time consuming thing. Moving the ladder around the car to load and tie down by yourself takes time. Get some help and it'll go much faster. My neighbor helped me unload when I arrived in Michigan and only took 10 minutes to unload. Now, the review. PROS: Everything! They left no stone unturned. The bag looked and felt substantial. The outer layer felt like it would hold up under my driving conditions and I was impressed right out of the box. The inner layer has some kind of rubberized coating for waterproofing. The zipper is concealed under a flap that has velco to hold it down. It came with a small lock so you can lock lock the 2 zippers together for security. It has straps all the way around to tie it down to your car. The straps have a velco piece attached at the end so you can secure the loose ends so they don't flap in the breeze. It came inside a storage bag with clips if you want to attach this bag through your windows without using a roof rack. The only CON to this so far is, how am I ever going to fold this thing back down into a storage bag? I haven't tried it yet but it doesn't matter as I have a garage. My testing of the bag: This bag took 3 days of driving in over 100 degree temps and a about 30 minutes of rain in Missouri. I drove the speed limit sometimes. Usually I'm the 10 mph over the speed limit driver on the freeway. I was pretty much 75-80 mph fully loaded with this bag though. I arrived without incident to the bag in Michigan in time for father's day. No visible damage to the bag, or to the car. My neighbor helped my unload and take the bag off in 10 minutes. No water made it through the bag and all my items were no worse for the wear. I'll return to Tucson in October. If something goes awry, I'll update this review. Here's my advice. Read other people's reviews and see what may have went wrong. Most negative comments about about roof bags of any make came from people tying these things down to their windows and having the bags rest ON THE ROOF. High winds and drag on these bags tells me they won't hold up to this abuse. Even with the bag loaded properly as per Roof Pax instruction, the drag on the luggage kills gas mileage. The RAV4 hybrid gets about 45mpg unloaded. Not on this trip I assure you. Load the roof bag so you have no hard pieces of suitcases like wheels facing the sides and front of the bag where winds at these speeds will damage anything. I don't advise any bag directly on the roof unless it's an emergency move on a short trip. As much as I spent for my car, I wanted NO damage to it. Use a luggage rack and secure the straps to that instead of your windows. I worried about the plastic clips on the straps holding up, but they did just fine. The Roof Pax is a 5 star, 2 thumbs up from me. I recommend this item under the conditions I stated. I would buy this again.

Going to start off by saying that my only complaint is that the zipper binds relatively easy. Other than the above issue, This bag is massive and fits everything we needed For four people To use On a four day trip (2 kids 2 adults). Drove a little over 400 Mi through rain, freezing rain and hail, and then blizzarding conditions with snow. Temperatures around 15*F. This thing held up great. Not a drop of water or any type of moisture inside.. My favorite thing about it is probably the ease of use of the tie-down clips. They were able to wrap onto my aftermarket roof rack and hold it snug with no problems. It unzips three quarters of the way which makes it incredibly easy to load. It also has a ton of room so you can pack a lot of stuff in there. The only reason I'm giving it four stars is because the zippers did catch when opened all the way, and there was a few times where you have to back it up because it wants to bind on the waterproofing material. But as long as you go relatively slow, it has a perfect seal

After finding out how difficult and costly having a hitch installed on my Subaru Forrester would be, I desperately began looking for ANY alternative and found RoofPax. I was skeptical and expected the worst, especially since it was only around 100 bucks. I also was a bit terrified hauling so much stuff on the roof of my car for a 3 day highway move from Chicago to the West Coast with hooks mounted to the frame...it gave me a recurring nightmare involving my stuff littered over a mile span of highway and the deaths of innocent drivers unlucky enough to be driving behind me. I am happy to report that none of that came to fruition. The product worked like a dream. It held 2 medium sized duffel bags, 2 medium suitcases, and a large suitcase (this was the large size RoofPax). WARNING: Please be sure that you have a vehicle that allows you to use the hooks prior to purchasing- watch the video! I was also able to cram winter coats in-between the bags (oh, Chicago, how I will miss your sub-zero temps!). You really cannot beat the price, efficiency, and durability of the RoofPax. After 3 days, it remained tightly fastened and did not even require re-securing. Only negative was that it was not fully water-proof, more water-resistant. After some snow and 2 days of rain, some moisture did get through. However, most of the material was in suitcases, so everything remained dry. I will take it as a big win, as this was by far the cheapest and best option I had. A very enthusiastic "two thumbs up" for RoofPax.

We took this to Florida from Arkansas for vacation and we went through rain and everything and it didn’t leak or tear. I really read reviews and this was a great carrier for the top of our car!!! It is definitely weatherproof and durable. We had no problem assembling it and getting luggage down from it either. Very easy to use.

This is a solid piece of kit. Performs beyond my expectations. Very solidly built, thick canvas. Strong straps that work perfectly with the luggage rack on our 2011 Tahoe. Zipper is sturdy and protected under overhanging flap that secures on three sides via velcro tab. Top flap seals on three sides with fourth integrated with main body of bag. We were able to easily fit 2 large suitcases, 2 carryon sized cases, 2 small/medium duffle bags, 2 suit bags folded in half and still had a bit of room leftover. Straps emanate from all four sides of the bag and are equipped with 3 prong locking clasps. Straps can be tightened by pulling thru clasps and once done hold the bag and contents very securely to roof of vehicle. If u dont have a luggage rack, the bag comes with clasps that fit and feed under rubber door seals. We traveled from central Illinois to Beaufort, SC, from plains thru foothills and into Smoky Mountains then down into Carolina lowlands and eventually to coast. Tho not deluged, it did rain intermittently throughout trip and all our items stayed dry and secure. We were able to bring a thin foldup step ladder with us, tucked in the very back of the truck at the hatch and this made removal and installation of the bag and contents much easier than had we not, given the height of the vehicle combined with additional height of loaded bag. This was especially helpful given that we broke the trip into 2 segments south and 2 northward and therefore needed to remove and reinstall the bag and contents at each stop. Anyway, I highly recommend this thing. Should something fail, I will report that. I do know that eventually, if used frequently, retreating with waterproofing would likely be necessary. But man, I'm super impressed so far.
