MaxxHaul 50149 500-lb Capacity 50 inch x 22 inch Hitch Mount Premium Folding Aluminum Cargo Carrier Rack Basket with High Side Rails and Reflector Lens for Added Safety

The best and really only way to carry things outside of a Jeep where carrying things inside is not good or possible.Really well made and light weight.

Great quality and design.

Overall good for money. very light weight, as expected. I assembled but have yet to use it. 1st suggestion: Stack a few fender washers between support brace and aluminum frame. otherwise, it wants to bend the frame downward on each side as you tighten it. 2nd suggestion: use larger bolts to attach aluminum frame to support brace. Fasteners provided are small and that’s a crucial attachment point.

Love this! Easy to assemble nice quality

This folding cargo carrier was very easy to install and very sturdy. Only thing I’d recommend adding is a slide hitch tightening bracket, this will eliminate any movement between the slide/receiver when loaded.

Perhaps the folding and non folding carriers are made by different people because unlike the reviews by others, the folding carrier came in just a few pieces. If you need instructions to put this together you might not have enough common sense to be driving. A Phillips head screw driver, a ten mm socket, a 4 mm Allen wrench and either a 1 inch socket and/or an adjustable wrench. The base comes already assembled and has reinforced aluminum edges. The black bracket gets attached to the base with four nuts and bolts. A ten mm socket and a 4 mm Allen wrench is helpful with that. The folding part is attached to the bracket with a nut and bolt either with a 1 inch socket and an adjustable wrench or two adjustable wrenches. There are two red reflectors that need a Phillips head screwdriver. That’s it! Comes with two pins also. I’ll probably put a receiver clamp on it to keep it from wiggling around. I certainly ain’t a lucky person, but it took a half hour from taking it out of the box to having it on the back of my vehicle. It’s sturdy enough to hold me sitting in it and I’m an old beer drinking, donut eating, retired cop. I read the stories of others nightmares but this definitely was easier than changing the oil.

I’m extremely disappointed in the quality of this aluminum cargo carrier. It arrived dented and scuffed up right out of the box(the box itself was in damaged). For something that’s supposed to handle heavy loads and outdoor use, the construction feels flimsy and cheap. Not what I expected at all for the price. Definitely not worth it—will be looking for a better-built option elsewhere.

Product arrived with slight damage. Shipping carton was not damaged in any, so I must conclude that it was packaged this way.
