"I finally got to use the carrier for a camping trip with my son. On the day we were leaving for that trip we had some rain and I was tempted to put everything that was going in the carrier in plastic bags to keep it dry. And as I thought about it for a moment I remembered the reviews that I read and didn't use plastic bags. When we arrived 4 1/2 hours later and unpacked and everything was dry.I'm not at all suprised because I also have the Weathertech floor mats and cargo mats for my vehicle and am very satisfied.It's a great product and easy to install, even by yourself.I would definitely recommend it."

"We bought this carrier for a trip from the Pittsburgh, PA, area to Myrtle beach for a Toyota 4-Runner. The carrier was easy to install and easy to remove. We did not need any extra straps. It comes with a case and fits back in the case after folding. It did not flap in the wind. On the return trip, we encountered rain and our stored items did get wet. However, we put the kids beach toys, a stroller, etc. in it. Other items were wrapped in plastic garbage bags. I would not put anything that you did not want to get wet inside. All in all, we thought it was a good carrier."

"Bought ours on a recommendation from a neighbor who had recently purchased the softroof carrier. We are as satisfied with the unit as he and his wife. It helps to have a step ladder to save your back when loading suitcases (heavier on the bottom) and arranging the luggage within the softroof. Also, the four corners are best used for duffles or other soft containers for filling out smaller space. It rained on the return trip (cloud burst variety) and all stayed dry. Once loaded, tighten down the straps and ensure they are opposed stress one to another, side to side and front to back. No need to overdo...just shimmy to ensure a taut fit. Great unit; easy storage and perfect for 99% of whatever you need to carry out of the vehicle."

"We purchased the carrier for a trip to Myrtle Beach. We felt it would be cheaper than gas for another car to make the trip since we were traveling with our son and daughter-in-law and their newborn son. It proved to be a very stable carrier. We were able to pack the pack and play bed along with several pieces of luggage in it. The straps also enabled us to tie down a stroller and small ladder on the side. We did not drive in rain."

"This carrier was fantastic! It held all of our large luggage bags, beach chairs, portable crib and more which gave us plenty of room for things we needed acces to inside the car (like coolers, etc). Only thing was the need for additional straps to make sure it was very secure as we traveled in very windy weather. We did hit some rain and everything stayed dry. The best part is how light and small it folds up for storage. A definite recommendation!"

"We have loved our WeatherTech Roof Sack!! We just finished a weeklong trip through the south, through 60mph straightline winds with rain and hail for the first leg of the trip, and rain on 3 of the other days as well. There was a little dampness right at the zipper, but no moisture sitting in the bag or on our stuff at all!! Does it look as perfectly square as in the picture? Definitely not, but it allowed us to customize how much we had in it, with no shifting during travel because we could cinch the straps down as much or as little as needed. We are VERY happy with the purchase and the fact that we can fold it up and store it in a very small space until we will gladly need to use it again."

"I used the soft-sided carrier to haul 'stuff' from Colorado to Mpls. The first day took me through a driving rainstorm driving through rush hour traffic from Colorado Springs to the north side of Denver. I was not able to unload anything until four days later and everything was bone dry. Dependable performanceto say the least."
