Review on πŸ”Œ Enhance Your Prius's Storage Space with TOYOTA Genuine Accessories PT347-47101 Envelope Style Cargo Net in Black by Julian Perkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect fit, easy installation and extra comfort

I bought this for my 2013 Prius. I've driven a truck before a Prius, so getting a working trunk was pretty exciting. I wanted to make sure I could see some of the stuff I'm carrying in the trunk (basketball) so it doesn't roll around when the car is in motion. This network is great! Installation was very easy. If you've assembled IKEA furniture in your life, you're probably too qualified for this setup. There are 2 Phillips (+) screws for loosening and inserting the top anchors of this net. Tighten the screw again and you're done. So easy, I think it took me about 2 minutes to make. The bottom 2 sides of the net attaches to the existing metal hinges in the trunk, eliminating the need for screws. It was again very easy and self-explanatory. Added bonus: I don't think you can tell from the pictures but my net came with (let me try to describe it as best as I can) a plastic tab attached to one of the top sides of the net which You can drag to "open" the mesh. In general, think of a handle that you can pull on a net to open it. I'll try to remember and post a photo here. It looks like TOYOTA is written in red letters on the black plastic tag. It was a very pleasant surprise for such a cheap factory product. My only complaint is that the stitches don't work well on larger items. I currently have 2 basketballs in the net and the basketballs get in the way when the trunk is closed. While this doesn't prevent the trunk from closing, it does prevent it every time he pushes. It doesn't really bother me, but I felt like there should be a little more space between the net and the trunk so what's in the net doesn't get slammed by the door every time it closes. I wouldn't put anything fragile on the web, although I wouldn't do it in the first place. Overall a great purchase. I would highly recommend it to any Prius owner. **** *** UPDATE: 9/13/13 I finally remembered and posted a photo of the plastic tab I was talking about. Again, highly recommended to all Prius owners!
