INNO BRA240BK Ridge Cargo Box - 8 Cubic FT (Gloss Black)

1500 miles from Florida to Indiana no problem. I had to adjust my bar for my 2022 Tucson but other than that definitely better than what I had before which is just ladder and ratchet strap

I was looking for a smaller roof top box to keep dirty and wet gear out of my truck. I didn't want a tall box or something with a high tare (empty) weight. This little box seemed to fit my needs nicely.Shipping and Packaging: Shipping went smoothly. Packaging was reasonable, the item arrived in good condition. It was wrapped in cellophane inside a bag inside a large box.Build Quality: I would put the build quality of this box far above the off-brand models I saw in person. It falls somewhere between the quality of the Yakima and Thule boxes. The locking feature seems to work well but as with any roof box I feel like a determined thief would be able to get in using enough force.Installation: Installation was fairly straight forward, the instructions were simple but adequate. I spent a little over a half hour on the initial installation including measuring the box so it was perfectly centered (because I'm that guy). It was easy enough to lift on top of the truck by myself. I imagine that subsequent removals and installation will be quicker now that the cross bars are where they need to be. The roof box uses a squared u-bolt system with backing plates the only difficulty I had was connecting the u-bolts on the hinge side of the lid by myself, a second set of hands would have been helpful. The backing plates also housed the tie down points so that your tie down straps inside will be about where your roof racks are. The u-bolts fit around my Thule Aerobars. They do fit the thicker bar but there is a fair amount of room forward and behind the u-bolt a strap system would be better.Driving with the box installed: After several months of driving with the box installed I haven't noticed any difference in driving on the highway or around town. If there is any noise it is minimal. I do have all terrain tires that increase road noise a bit so your results may vary on a smaller car with a quieter cabin.I've had this mounted during several significant rain storms and my contents have stayed dry throughoutAll and all I am happy with this purchase. The size is right for me, the cost reasonable, and the initial quality is there. If you're more concerned with function than showing off that Thule or Yakima label I think you'd be happy with this item.I hope this review is helpful.

It works for me. The hinges are plastic. But it seems to attach secure and it is what I needed for extra cargo/camping gear. I feel it is nicer than a bag that sits on the car roof. It’s solid and looks great on my 07 Honda Pilot. I am very happy with this Inno cargo box.

Perfect fit on a Mazda3 hatchback with OEM crossbars. Fits all our camping gear and collapsible fishing rods with no issue. Drove it over 2,000 miles this summer, including through torrential rain, with nothing getting wet and remaining tight. No discernible effect on gas mileage beyond a small dip due to added weight. Only drawback is that it only opens from one side, but that’s a quibble because this is a high quality product that is built to last.

I bought this for my moms blue explorer. She traveled for 3 months from LA. To big bear to yosemite & back with this cargo carrier on her hood. When she got back, I asked her how was it with this cargo carrier on her truck.Her reply :Does not effect gas. Maybe because it's small. I was flying down the freeway at 85 , 90 miles an hour, did not notice my gas go down at all & I was paying very close attention .I had to mount it my self by watching a YouTube video since no one was available to help me. Took about 2 hours because I had to climb on the hood & mount the screws from inside the cargo carrier. Harder then it looks! Once on, no problems! Yes it is small but you can put a lot in there for 1 person. Once locked, it will only open if you unlock first, push it down and press the button at the same time. Took my truck through the self car wash 10× & water never got inside!I love it & I get compliments on it all the time. Only thing I don't like is that it's small but I had a different one, a bigger one my truck before this one and my gas plummeted on the freeway with in 4 days! This one is great for 1 person & I highly recommend!

The product in itself is nice.However….. it came with a very deep gouge which went through both the polymer coat and clear coat and about a cm into the core material.As well as another scrape which just skimmed off the top coat, both are on the top of the lid which, considering that it was all wrapped up in thin plastic that was not damaged leads us to believe that they sent this to us knowing it was damaged and just didn’t care to fix it or send us one without damage.Overall very careless.

I double checked the Amazon and product pages before ordering, and they indicated crossbars between 20-34” would work with this. This does NOT work on a 2020 or later Toyota Highlander with OEM crossbars. The low rating is due to the incorrect information. The product itself was as expected - a bit flimsy but I think that’s the nature of this product type. It was also tricky to open, as the unlock button has to be pushed in and didn’t always open all the way to open the back end. Unfortunate as this is a perfect size for our needs.
