Disappointing - cargo nets

I am very disappointed with this. I loved the luggage rack in my old car and was hoping this one would be similar. My old car's luggage net stretched from side to side, creating a complete barrier between the small area in front and the rest of the trunk behind. It wasn't a pocket style, just a barrier, but it really was perfect for keeping things like groceries in place while riding. Add to that the fact that it doesn't extend fully from side to side and it's too close to the front of the trunk. The bottom of the net is a leather pouch that you can put the net back in and zip up when not in use. This is a good idea until you realize that the bag isn't wide enough to roll from side to side and it doesn't have the elasticity of the mesh. This leaves gaps between the bottom corners of the mesh and the sides of the trunk. Being too close to the front of the trunk makes it difficult to use as a barrier like I did on my old one by putting groceries or whatever between the grille and the front of the trunk. This grid could be a lot more useful with just a few small tweaks. I may be looking for an aftermarket alternative or an all round alternative that acts better as a barrier that will hold more items and hold them in place like my old one.
