What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing gives two slightly different dimension records: 130.8L x 44.5W x 10.2H centimetres and 130.81 x 44.45 x 10.16 cm; 12.2 kg. Confirm the exact basket dimensions before purchase. The 500-pound figure is a manufacturer claim, not a guarantee that every vehicle or receiver can carry that load. Customer feedback summarized for this page describes a bicycle cargo rack, so its relevance to this luggage basket is unclear. Check fit and alignment expectations against the selected product listing.
Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Drivers with a compatible 2-inch receiver who want an open rear basket for luggage, camping gear or bulky items.
- Buyers who want side rails and tie-down points to help secure cargo.
Less suited to
- Drivers whose receiver is not a standard 2-inch Class III or IV receiver.
- Buyers who need a closed, weather-protective cargo container or verified capacity beyond the listing's claim.

Frequently asked questions
What receiver does this carrier fit?
The listing claims compatibility with standard 2-inch Class III and IV receivers. Check your vehicle's receiver size and capacity before buying.
How much weight can it carry?
The manufacturer lists a 500-pound load capacity. The vehicle, hitch and receiver may have lower limits, so do not treat the carrier rating as the permitted load for every setup.
What are the basket dimensions?
The listing title gives 53-1/2 × 19 × 5 inches. The details also contain two slightly different metric dimension records, noted above, so confirm the selected listing's measurements if fit is critical.
Does it include a cargo bag or straps?
No package inventory is supplied here. The listing describes built-in rails and tie-down options but does not confirm that a bag or straps are included.
