Hi, everyone, Aidan here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at this Erickson roof rack cargo net. It's gonna be a great way to secure a wide variety of items in something like a roof basket like this and kind of be a one-stop shop solution so that we don't have to get all kinds of different straps out and individually tie things down. You can just drape this whole net over all of your cargo, get it secured with all of the included hooks, and you've got a really strong hold on your stuff. Let's check it out. So this net is stretchable.
And unstretched, it's going to be 36 inches wide by 48 inches long. We're using that with a pretty equally sized cargo basket right now, and I feel like it's the perfect amount of stretch. It's tight in some spots where I felt like it was really difficult to get hooked onto some of the bars on the cargo basket itself, but that's good because that means everything's sized pretty appropriately. And we're actually taking out a lot of that slack and getting a pretty firm hold over our cargo. As far as how it's holding everything because it's a more stretchy material, I can get a little bit of movement out of our stuff.
It's not just rock-solid and unmoving. But honestly, that's fine. Everything's still very stable, and it takes a good amount of pressure for me to get it to move. So I'm not worried about any of our stuff security-wise. And it's also kind of nice because it's not putting too much pressure on our stuff.
So if we have something plastic like this tote that we're maybe worried about getting damaged by cranking down a ratchet strap, we don't have to worry about that so much. Everything's held in place with the 12 included hooks. These are spaced all around the net, and they're gonna be constructed of a plastic. So if you do happen to maybe drop one, it hits the roof, it's not going to damage the paint. And they're pretty easy to get set up, just hooking them onto various bars around the basket.
I will say that the opening here isn't super large, so if you have any sort of thicker bars, it's not going to be able to hook onto those super well. But for the vast majority of baskets, I think it'll be just fine on any of these smaller bars underneath. That's really all there is to it. It's a pretty simple net, nothing too fancy about it, but it is very convenient. Just make sure you size it appropriately to whatever basket or platform you plan on using it with and making sure that you've got ample tie-downs for those 12 hooks. But as long as you've got that, I think it's gonna do a great job at securing your stuff and making for less hassle with ratchet straps and cam buckle straps when you're securing stuff on your rooftop basket. Thanks for watching.
