I received the package in a pretty rough exterior condition but everything was fine inside.

The previous comments about having to cut away the expanded metal flooring in order to install the carriage bolts wasn't true in my case. Apparently, this quality control issue has been addressed by the manufacturer.

Assembly went well and wasn't complicated. A different carriage bolt with a longer square shoulder should be used. The shoulder doesn't grip too well to the square cutout in the frame and even while pressing firmly on the head of the bolt, it wanted to turn as I was tightening the nut.

All in all, it seems to be a solid product and I look forward to using it.

Ive used this a few times in the past year and its very useful and strong.



by:

I wish the load capacity was a bit higher, but overall I am satisfied with the cargo carrier. It is perfect for lugging my two dog crates behind my vehicle instead of inside the vehicle. Thank you for offering a dimensionally larger cargo carrier than most retailers.



by:

Love it! I use it on my 2016 Nissan Frontier. Allows me to fit one more washer or dryer for my laundry business!



by:

I only gave an average rating because the carrier was not easy to assemble without slight modification. The bolt holes for assembly were blocked by the steel mesh. I cut the mesh that covered several of the holes with a rotary disc cutter.

I will share this information with the manufacturer as this is an unusual case.



by:

The carrier works great. I wanted it to transport a foldable 3 wheeled bike. It fits on the carrier just right. Putting together was not difficult for me. Have not had a chance to actually go anywhere with it, but I can tell it will be just fine.



by:

Product was delivered quickly and had detailed instructions on assembly. Thanks.



by:

Does what I expected.2010 FJ Cruiser. Assemble was very easy. The problem with past posts of getting the bolts to pass thru the wire mesh has been fixed as well as the reflective tape. Great job on delivery. I will use this cargo carrier for travel and when out surf fishing. The wagon I have will just fit on this carrier and make getting to the beach and back a cleaner experience.



by:

Works great! We use this as an add on for our work truck so we can carry large equipment because our bed holds all of our permanent equipment.



by:

Purchased this to carry an e-trike on the front of my truck. It was the only one I could find that would accommodate the 30" width of the trikes rear wheels.



by:

I’ve owned this cargo carrier for about a year now and I’m very happy with the purchase. It’s very sturdy and I appreciate that the frame has numerous points to hook up ratchet straps. I typically use it to transport plastic bins for camping and it was a huge help when moving. It’s also made it easy to rent outdoor power equipment from Home Depot.



by:

Well built, easy to assemble and convenient holes for tie downs.



by:

Seems well built & sturdy, will know more when we complete trip Tom Maryland with trike on it.



by:

Excellent product! Excellent service. Easy peasy! Thank you



by:

It was extremely difficult to find a hitch carrier wide enough for the e-trike I am buying. This one works beautifully. All the parts were there. The instructions are easy to follow. I have it almost all put together. And FYI, I'm a 71 year old lady doing this on my own and it was very easy!



by:

After some searching this was the answer to our need. I did some modifications to accommodate our 2 folding tadpole trikes and the total weight of the trikes and rack is still more than 50 lb's below the listed capacity. We have driven in 4 states with no problem.



by:

Product is exactly as expected, very good quality, easy to assemble and serves the purpose I bought it for.
I simply used a device to prevent rattling and it works great.
I can also still open the trunk on a Atlas with some cargo on it which makes things very convenient.
I would recommend w/o any hesitation.



by:

Superior quality easily holds our new Lectric Bike Three Wheel Trike. Fast shipment, well packaged and great service. Very easily assembled.



by:

I just finished putting it together. Went fine, looks good. Bolts are not 3/8, they are 9/16. Missing some washers.Very happy!

Hey I am glad that you are happy with the carrier. Still I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.



by:

Have had for a year. I haul a 30” Toro mower with trimmer, blower and gas on this beast on my 2018 Jeep Wrangler. Awesome.



by:

Etrailer had the best price, free shipping, and it arrived faster than they estimated!



by:

UPS just dropped off my new carrier from e-trailer! The dimensions are perfect for hauling my wife's e-trike and my two-wheel e-bike! Assembly took all of 15 minutes! Although it's pretty robust I can use it on my RV or my pickup. Quality unit! As soon as I mount it I'll be posting on Facebook! I forgot to mention the speed in which it was handled! Ordered on a Friday and it was here the following Tuesday! OUTSTANDIND!



by:

I purchased this product to transport my fish house. It works great! Customer service was excellent with speedy shipping. I highly recommend this product and etrailer.com



by:

Exactly what I was looking for even though it took a while to get it great service and communication with me about the order



by:

Arrived in good condition. Easy to assemble. Steel mesh was cut away from bolt holes appropriately so no cutting and painting was needed. Very grateful that mfr listened to older reviews and improved their product. Would buy again.



by:

Great carrier, gave my family more space inside the car on vacation's . We also use back and forth to the beach to hold wagon umbrella cooler, and chairs . Keeps sandy items out of the car . It has plenty of tie down locations for ratchet straps or bungee cords. Was very easy to put together.

After a year of use this item is still great. We play travel ball and this is great for coolers canopy chairs and wagon. We still use for vacations and trips to the beach.

  • Front Mounted Hitch For 2021 Chevy Colorado For Cargo Carrier
    You can mount a generator in a cargo carrier on the front of your 2021 Chevy Colorado by adding a front-mounted hitch (so long as it is not a ZR2 model). First, let's start with the front hitch that fits your '21 Colorado: - Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31074 The # C31074 has a 500 lb vertical load (think tongue weight) capacity and 2 inch receiver, so you'll just need a cargo carrier with a 2 inch shank that has the size and capacity needed to carry your generator; the...

  • Recommended Ball Mount For Towing And Accessory Mount For Cargo Carrier
    For your application, I recommend the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2" Receiver for Bike Racks and Cargo Carriers - 7,500 lbs # D210. This will allow you to tow your motorcycle as well as carry your grill with a cargo carrier like the 31x47 Pro Series Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 400 lbs, # PS1040100. This cargo carrier is 48 inches long x 32 inches wide x 3 inches deep. It also has a 4 inch shank rise. You will want to make sure your cargo carrier will allow your...

  • Will the Pro Series Cargo Carrier # PS1040100 work in the 2 Inch Hitch on a Jeep 2010 Patriot
    The Pro Series Hitch Cargo Carrier, item # PS1040100, should fit nicely in the 2 inch hitch on your 2010 Jeep Patriot. The shank on the carrier measures 12 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the raised side of the platform and raises 4 inches for clearance at the rear of the carrier, for going through dips and entering steep drives. The receiver on your patriot sits below the molded letters in the rear fascia which is well below 4 inches below the door opening, so you would...

I tis the 32 X 48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100 is a steel grate bottomed carrier with low sides, trading features for efficiency and allowing a wide variety of loads. a separate add on ramp, part # PS1040200 is available, allowing you to adjust the platform to multiple applications.

  • Folding Cargo Carrier Recommendation for a 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser
    I have a much better solution that would be easier to determine if it would fit. If you measure from the center of the hitch pin hole to the furthest point out on your spare tire and it measures less than 9 inches the Curt Carrier part # C18151 would install and fold up without interference. When we installed the Curt Hitch part # 13367 that you said you think you have we found that it measured 6 inches from the pin hole to the outer edge of the spare. So you should be good with the #...

    Yes, the hatch of your 2014 Kia Soul will definitely still be able to open with the Reese Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches item # PS1040100 installed; the hatch is up quite a bit higher than where the cargo carrier will be when it is installed in a hitch so there will be no interference whatsoever. This cargo carrier will only work on a 2" trailer hitch receiver, and the only one of those that fits your 2014 Kia Soul is the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver item # 306-X7326. As...

  • Availability of a Bike Rack with Cargo Carrier Attachment
    We do have a bike rack/cargo carrier combination but you cannot install a bike rack at the end of Pro Series cargo carrier # PS1040100. It is not set up for this purpose. The useable interior dimensions are 47-3/4" long x 31-3/4" wide x 2-3/4" deep. For a bike rack/cargo carrier combination you can use the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider # HR1450Z-85. The only problem is that the width is only 15-1/2 inches. This is because a wider carrier would mean it would stick out further and the further...

  • What is Pro Series Ramp Kit # PS1040200 Designed to Fit
    If you could come up with a way to secure the ramp part # PS1040200 to a utility trailer it would be possible for it to fit and work well, but we don't have a recommended way to accomplish this. This is designed to fit the Pro Series cargo carrier part # PS1040100 instead. For utility trailer ramps we have the part # 288-07489 instead which would be better for your purpose.

  • Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier Recommendation for 2016 Jeep Wrangler that Allow Rear Door to Open
    We test fit a several hitch cargo carriers on a similar 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited and we found that the Curt # C18145 and the # PS1040100 allowed the rear cargo door to open over the carrier. I wish either of them folded up, but none of the folding carriers we offer would have the clearance to fold up around the spare. But the two options I listed will satisfy you primary interest. Check out the review videos I attached to see that they will fit and clear.

  • Will the Reese Solo Carrier # PS1040100 Fit a 35" long x 35" wide x 6' tall Refrigerator?

With that being said, a great solution for transporting your refrigerator is the Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer - 6' Long - 1,295 lbs # K2MMT4X6. The K2 trailer has a bed dimension of 72" long x 48" wide x 7-1/2" tall and can hold up to 1,295 pounds. If you decide to go this route, you...

  • Can Trailer Lights be Added to a Cargo Carrier
    What I recommend for adding lights to your cargo carrier is light kit # 20174. To mount the lights you will also need 2 of bracket # BK70BB. You can use self-tapping screws to secure the brackets to the top, rear rail of the carrier. This set up is the most cost effective option. It would plug into a 4-way trailer wiring connector.

  • Is it Better to Use a Hitch Cargo Carrier or Roof Cargo Carrier for a 2015 Honda Odyssey
    You are correct that there are definite advantages of hitch cargo carriers over roof cargo carriers. You will have less drag improving your gas mileage and you won't have to reach up to the roof of your vehicle each time you load or unload. The biggest upsides you will find from the roof cargo carriers is accessing the cargo and of course the cost difference for the amount of cargo you can carry. A good hitch cargo carrier is the GearDeck 17 Enclosed Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Slide...

  • Cargo Carrier Approved for Use Behind Trailer
    The cargo carrier we have which is approved for use behind a trailer is the Stromberg Carlson Cargo Carrier # CC-100. This carrier fits 2" hitches and measures 8" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the platform. It is 60" long x 23" wide and has pre-drilled holes along its raised edges for tie-downs. I do recommend using the Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # 63232 to lock your carrier to your hitch and minimize the amount of rattling you'd experience....

  • Hitch and Cargo Carrier Recommendation for a 2015 GMC Acadia
    For your 2015 GMC Acadia the recommended Curt hitch is the part # 13424. This hitch has a 500 lb tongue weight capacity so it would work well for carrying a deer on a cargo carrier. I attached an install video for this carrier for you to check out as well. The Pro Series Cargo Carrier part # PS1040100 would be a great option for a cargo carrier. I attached a review video that shows this carrier being demoed in a 2015 Acadia just like yours.

  • Does the 200 lb Tongue Weight Capacity of Curt Class I Trailer Hitch Apply to Hitch Accessories
    Tongue weight represents the maximum amount of downward force that can be safely suspended from the hitch, whether it be tongue load applied from a trailer coupler, or a hitch mounted accessory like a bike rack or a cargo carrying tray like the # PS1040100 you looked at. In the case of your hitch, the weight of the cargo carrier plus whatever is loaded on it could not exceed 200 lbs.

  • Can the Shank of Pro Series Cargo Carrier PS1040100 be Flipped to Lower the Platform
    I checked with the manufacturer and they told me that the hitch shank on the Pro Series Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100, can be flipped either way to help with clearance when opening the cargo area door on your vehicle. So what you can do is flip the shank in the orientation that lowers the platform of the carrier a few inches as opposed to in the up position which would raise it.

  • Lightweight Cargo Carrier that is 48 inches Wide
    The Pro Series Cargo Carrier part # PS1040100 that you referenced weighs 70 lbs. For a somewhat similar dimension carrier that's aluminum and much lighter the part # C18113 would be a great option as it weighs 26 lbs. It's dimensions are 48" x 21". I attached a review video for this carrier for you to check out as well.

  • Purpose of Curt Hitch Stabilizer Strap and Cargo Carrier Wide Enough for 28 in Wide Generator
    Curt requires the use of their stabilizer strap part # 18050 when using their hitch to carry a non-supported load like a bike rack. The strap braces the hitch so that when you hit a bump it's not quite as stressful on the hitch. I attached a review video for you to check for the strap as well. We have the Reese Solo Cargo Carrier part # PS1040100 which is 32 inches wide and 48 inches long. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.

The 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 400 lbs Item # PS1040100 is likely the best option. There isn't a perfect fit for the spare tire as well as the gas and water cans, but this carrier has the largest cargo space with weight capacity.

  • Will Pro Series Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier Block Rear Door from Opening on a 2011 Toyota RAV4

Then open the rear door on your RAV4 to see if the path of the door would interfere with the carrier.

The metal rack portion of the carrier comes straight out from the exhaust. The pod portion of the carrier is raised above the rack about 6 inches.

If you measure from the center of the hitch pin hole on the side of your receiver tube to the rear-most part of the vehicle you will know how much clearance you need from a cargo carrier.

  • Can the Reese Solo Cargo Carrier Be Used on a Keystone Cougar Travel Trailer
    Yes, the 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # PS1040100 can be used with your 2017 Keystone Cougar Travel Trailer. You are going to need a trailer hitch to use this cargo carrier so you'd need to add one with # C13702 if you don't already have one or you can just use the 24x40 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e99050 instead which will bolt up to your bumper.
