great invention
rating: 5
I bought the cargo bag to go with it. Fits on the Highlander and gives us more space inside for long road trips. Sturdy quality and reasonably priced in comparison to other internet sites. I just have to remember it's there when I park.

For your truck or SUV
rating: 5
I bought this for the wife's Expedition. It fits great and looks great. I found this same item at 5 or 6 different web sites, but it was cheapest here. Shipping was fast, and it only took 20 minutes to put together. I bought the basket with the folding shank, and I am glad I spent the few extra $$. This basket is great for carrying large or dirty items that you do not want inside the vehicle (gas cans, sandy beach chairs, your mother-in-law). Buy one today!

Great product - but may close for all bumpers
rating: 3
the product is solid and straight forward to put together.
however, i can not close/raise the cargo carrier b/c it hits my bumper. i drive a '03 tahoe so my car and my bumper are rather popular items. the picture shown may be a bit misleading. there are extensions i can buy so no big deal, but it would have been nice had i known it did not fit all makes and models out of the box. overall, happy with purchase.

Easy as pie
rating: 5
This Cargo carrier is great. It took about 15 minutes to put together and was ready to use. It's a little heavy for a women to load up to the hitch but other than that it's awesome. It's easy to fold up when not in use and my hatch cleared it even when it was loaded up with a bunch of stuff. I recommend this for anyone who needs more cargo space.

Works as advertised
rating: 4
I bought this 'trailer' to haul the extra cargo for a week at the beach. It worked perfectly and I liked the fold up position for traveling without cargo which made the trailer safer for me, and everyone else on the road. It was a pain having to pull the pin every time to access the trunk, since I was traveling around town with it in the up position. Maybe Valley could redesign it a bit to make that easier like my bike rack.
From another review I read before purchasing, the side sections don't seem as sturdy as they should be to support the weight listed, but it did haul everything I needed. I liked the bar design which made tying down a tarp over my goodies easy.
After getting home, I did notice a few spots of rusted steel on the carrier, so not the best paint on it from the manufacturer. Easily taken care of with a wire brush and rust-proof spray paint.
