Installation was easy and held bikes great on a 1000 mile trip.  My only concern is the foam rings have already started to split?  Is this normal?  Can they be replaced if they split all the way?

I like the rack very much. It is easy to install and seems to be made well. The only improvement I would make is coating the clips that clip onto painted car body parts so as to protect from scratching the paint. I applied an adhesive backed felt.

The carrier did its job perfectly.  The first Installation took a little time, but after that it's really simple to put on and take off.  I broke one of the bike straps pulling too hard on it thinking it needed to be cinched down as tight as possible.  Lesson learned.  That's the only criticism I have of this product.  The bike straps do what they're supposed to, but if you pull too hard they will break.
Overall I am quite happy with my carrier.  It got our bikes to the lake and back for our first outing and the kids loved having them there.

The rack arrived in a fairly tattered package. The installation instructions are more a hindrance than help. However, once I figured out the installation, things definitely became easier. I installed it on a Honda Accord. Though I have not carried 4 bikes on the rack yet, I did carry 2 adult bikes on it. It held up nicely. The quality of the material seems pretty good.

got this to try and get the family out together more, only flaw for us is that my sons bike is one of the really small ones and the frame doesnt slide onto the carrier so we have to take the bikes off then remove the rack and get my sons bike out. but overall pretty easy to install and seems like it will work for our family...best price i found was here for new ones

It took a bit of trial and error to get it hooked on correctly and the directions weren't much help, but the bike rack has been successfully carrying bikes on our Jeep Grand Cherokee for a couple of weeks now.  Now that I know how to get it on there, it is easy to reinstall.  Great price and fast shipping at Auto Anything!

Honda Element a good fit

This bike rack fits well on the Element- the instructions aren't great and the first install takes a little time to figure out where to connect all of the support straps. Hint: The bottom straps work best when the hooks are inserted into the cut-outs in the frame- yes lay down under the back of the vehicle and you'll see side round cut-outs in the side of the main frame beams. Install the bottom straps into these left and right sides beams of the main frame and you'll be off and running.
