Review on πŸ”— Rugged Ridge 13551.30 Cargo Net: Versatile Roof Rack Stretch Net for Universal Use by Aaron Guy

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It worked, a little.

The price (which seems to have gone up a bit) and the size of this product made me buy it. It was a lot cheaper than other nets on the market and was also the perfect size for my rack. I used the next one to stow various items from the cooler, tent and other bags onto my luggage rack during a trip to the mountains. It kept things at 70 mph in heavy rain and wind. By the way, great trip :-). So I can confirm the original strength of the product. However, a few months after the net was on my rack, I noticed that the rubber band-like material that makes up the elastic cords was drying out and breaking into pieces easily. So now I'm just left with plastic hooks that work really well with the rope going through the holes the bungee once occupied. lol. I'm giving the product 3 stars because I can't tell if the product itself is defective or if it's my fault for leaving the grille on the rack for so long. One would hope that the product would hold up, especially since it hasn't stretched at all in that time. But like I said, I can't say either.

Pros
  • Great fit for me
Cons
  • Hard to say
