What's in the Box? 846 Quest rooftop cargo bag, 4 x attachment straps, stuff sack, and instruction guide Manufacturer's Warranty Limited lifetime warranty About Thule To say that Thule's beginnings in the U.S. were humble would be an understatement. Founding member Ake Skeppner sold products at windsurf competitions on the New England shoreline, exhibited the product line at a number of different trade shows, and even canvassed local retailers in the greater New York area, all from his "office"--a now-famous station wagon. Initial success was found in the small but growing sport of windsurfing where a strong, reliable roof rack was an indispensable piece of equipment. This was quickly followed by success in the ski business where Thule's Swedish heritage certainly helped the product gain rapid acceptance. By the mid-1980s, the company sold products directly to ski and windsurfing shops but sold through distributors to address the large and growing bike business. A risky decision was made to terminate these distributor relationships and sell direct to retailers through a network of independent sales representatives. Much of the company's market success today can be traced to that decision. Shortly after, Ake hired an engineer and set up a small assembly plant in Elmsford, New York in order to design and manufacture bike carriers that would offer the features demanded by the U.S. consumer and compete effectively with other racks on the market. The company has since grown rapidly through product innovation, a commitment to quality, and the continuance of a strong entrepreneurial spirit as well as continuing to evolve their products to meet the needs of users.

Great product September 6, 2010 Angelo Bought this to provide additional space as I brought my son to college. Traveled over 1400 miles with it on the roof. Bag was very roomy and much quieter than I had thought it would be. Extremely secure and needed very little adjustment during the course of the two-day trip. It rained fairly hard for about two hours of this trip. No evidence of leakage was seen in side of the bag. To be on the safe side, I did package some of the contents in plastic bags. Highly recommend this bag.
Don't waste your money on this item!!! September 6, 2010 shmatt1999 I bought this item mainly for the excellent brand name it has. The package came in, I strapped it to my roof, and filled my cargo for the Cape (I did not over fill the cargo carrier). When I went to zip the carrier, it ripped along the entire seam! This carrier is very flimsy - a few years ago I bought a generic one from Wal Mart and it was much better than this - I just couldn't find that one in my basement! If you're looking to buy one of these, make sure the zip line is very sturdy - good luck.
Thule 846 Rooftop bag helps to incease cargo capacity July 25, 2010 M. Ho (MA, USA) With a small car (Prius), we simply do not have enougth room to fit everything(kid & dog) for a week at the beach. Installed the roof rack, but did not want to spend too much for the roof top cargo carrier, so we tried the bag. It was amazing how much we can pack into it! Our kid & dog could then sit confortably in the back....... All in all, we are very glad to have it.
Couples things need to be aware of:
1. Rain!! if travel during wet weather, the bag is not ideal, things will get wet
2. Puiing the bag on/off the roof can be difficult if you have a lot.
3. Decrease gas millage: With the roof bag on, there was a noticible decrease in our gas millage, as compare to a similar trip with the same amount of stuffs in the car
good product June 22, 2010 William Chang This is a good product for casual travel. It can pack in a lot clothing and irregular shaped objects, which would be a problem for using a hard box.
great value March 8, 2010 David Maestas (Denver, CO) i was originally looking for a hard cover for top of my honda pilot for family road trip last summer. but they are expensive. i found this and the price is great and since I'll only be using it a few time a year, i think it's a great value. a little difficult to load though. found it easier to just load stuff after it's installed on the car. another thing you'll want to do is find a way to secure the hanging straps, else will drive you nuts while flapping on the highway. definitely well worth the money though. i hope to use if for many many years.
