I bought the Kayak Carrier last month and have used it numerous times since. Was able to assemble it on the top of my vehicle without issue.

I bought this to transport 2 kayaks on vacation. We had travel 7 hours to/from and the carrier worked perfectly.

5 Bear5
Great carrier that is easy to install and easy to use. Hauled a large 13. 5' tandem Kayak for a 14 hour trip recently without any issue.

5 Snarkana
Worked well for our 1, 200 mile trip. We had two kayaks strapped to this and had no issues.

My partner and I recently bought two kayaks from Dick ’s and needed to transport them over 100 miles through several mountain passes on a windy day. On a whim, we bought this kit and we are so glad we did. In the parking lot of the Dick ’s, we were able to install the kit on the crossbars of her Subaru Outback within 30 minutes and did not need a single tool for assembly! The instructions that came with the kit were clear and taught us how to safely secure our kayaks to the car. After tightening the straps, the kayaks didn ’ t budge for the entire trek home. This is a great product that is easy to use and effective in fulfilling its purpose.

loaded up 2 very heavy kayaks and drove them from Bay Area to Cabo... with no problems. Very well made product!

Like it so far- we have a Rav 4 Adventure and had to put the rack in the middle which makes it a little harder to get the Kayaks on the roof. It might have been better if we bought two separate units so they could be closer to the side of the Rav. Also with the support straight up, the bigger Kayak needs to be held until you get the first strap on it. All that said, the rack seem strong and the Kayaks rode well.

I bought the malone saddle pro and I love it. My problem before was I was unable to lift a kayak by myself for it to sit sideways on the roof of my SUV. Easy installment, adjusts to the shape of my kayak. I should of bought this setup last year. Would suggest this product to anyone.

5 Northwoods Kayaker
I recently bought this for my first kayak( Perception) L. L. Bean Manatee 10. 0. It installed nicely on my 2010 Chevy Equinox and with the help of the Thule slide, I am able to lift and load without any help. It was a nice snug transport of 10 miles driving 55mph. I am a 44 year old, 5' 3 '' female. In purchasing this item, I researched the ability to load by myself, cost of the product and being able to attach the saddle to a factory installed roof rack. The fact that I will probably be able to use this on my next car was also a bonus.

Purchased this saddle for my Wilderness Ride System 115. Previously had the Yakima Evenkeel which sucked for my yak because it was too heavy. The Malone Saddleup Pro is a lot better as far as quality goes. It is VERY easy to assemble and only takes a few minutes. It is also very ridgid and strong. This kayak saddle has made my life easier. The rear saddles with the felt lining make it really easy to slide and push the Kayak up. I have this saddle paired with the Yakima Showboat 66 '' Roller System on my 2013 Subaru Wrx hatchback. The two products work great to load heavier kayaks by myself.

Installation was a breeze. Exactly what I needed to transport my SUP ’s! Would definitely recommend!

5 Massassaga Matt
We have used this rack for 2 trips. It does not lock, but is east to remove from the crossbar to be stowed inside the vehicle while we were camping. The rack is compact so that we were ae to carry a kayak and a canoe on our trips. After a 5 hour car ride, the vessels were still secure and stable. Excellent product.

5
Nice quality, this mounted perfectly on Toyota OEM crossbars as the bracket is about 4 '' wide. I suggest putting the straps on the rack 1 kayak at a time and start with loading the side of the vehicle with the rack farthest away( if not centered) as it is easy to get them tangled and bunched over each other. Also, if you have an SUV you will be hopeless putting on 2 kayaks by yourself if you are under 6' tall. I bought my rack second hand( used once) from a shorter person with a big SUV.

5 Tgp189
We have used the Thule Compass many times and we love it. The only issue is that it does take a while to load and secure boats. Not a huge deal and should get better with practice.

5 Roxy79
Works AWESOME with our two kayaks! Super smooth to install and mount kayaks! Yipppeee Thule!

5 Tooch_O1
Purchased this about a month ago to transport 2 kayaks on the weekend. I liked that these can be folded down when not in use vs some of the others I looked at. By the 3rd trip my son and I can have the kayaks mounted in about 10 minutes and less to get down. Only advice, which may be obvious, is to make sure the mounting nuts on the bottom side are tight prior to putting the kayaks up there as I find I can get about 3/4 turn in between trips.

5 CooperDog
Used this for the first time 2 weeks ago and worked like a charm! Very easy to use!

5 Bonathon52
\ My daughter's SUV had cross bars so the Malone Auto Racks were very easy to use. The directions were simple to follow and by the time she loaded the kayaks at the end of our vacation, she found the process quite easy. We appreciated being able to take both kayaks.

5 Christiiiii345
Super easy to set up with clear instructions. Just have to be careful opening the hatchback on my car since the back rack hits the window every time I pop it open.

I bought this roof rack to help transport my 13. 5 ft kayak and my daughter's 6ft kayak. Before I had just mine and transported it with cheap styrofoam blocks that worked, but made me very nervous while driving. But once I needed to transport 2, I did n't trust the styrofoam ones. This purchase is exactly what I needed! Easy to install, very sturdy, and helped transport both kayaks with no problem what so ever! Very happy with my purchase.

5 Edjo
Did n't want to spend for the big name roof racks. Bought this for my Nissan Sentra. Easy to install and adjust. Paired with a soft cargo topper bag and 1500 miles on I- 95 at highway speeds and rain with zero issues. No rattles, whistles or slippage. Perfect for the occasional uses i will have. A bargain.

5 Vman
Made out of exceptional quality materials and built to last a long time.

5 GaryG
These are probably the best universal type roof racks you will be able to find. I shopped extensively for racks that would be able to stand up to transporting a heavy kayak over thousands of miles. Other brand name racks like Thule or Yakima would have cost 4 to 5 times the cost of these racks. These were the only ones that seemed to be able to perform just as well as the higher priced options. We used these on a 2016 Honda CRV( does not have a rain gutter or lip to catch other types of attachment systems) to transport the kayak from NY to Florida through a major southern blizzard with these racks on the car. The racks and kayak did not budge an inch. The ratchets seemed to work fine. I cinched them up as tightly as possible and then tied a half hitch as insurance. We kept the kayak on the rack with some budget ratchet tie downs from Harbor Freight. The fact that the tie downs for the rack do go through the interior of the car may put some people off but this also make the racks very secure. I also want to add that these did not mar the finish or cause any scratches or dents to the vehicle. I highly recommend these if you are having difficulty trying to find racks that work with your vehicle.

5 Carriel17
I bought this to take my 62lb Kayak from NC to Michigan to visit family. Easy to set up on my Escape's roof w/o rails. Used 2 racket ties and 2 bungee ties on front and back of kayak. No issues traveling over 1000 miles each way. Some noise once I got up to 70mph but that was it

I ’ ve been using the Thule Xsporter Pro Mid for a couple of months now. It was super easy to install on my 2018 Honda Ridgeline even though they mention it doesn ’ t fit. I saw this on a Honda ridgeline at overland Expo. It holds my 2 person roof top tent with ease and I can not wait to get a few more items on it as well

5 Jon K
This was an easy install and the build quality is super solid. We got this for our rooftop tent but it will work for many other applications. Impressed.

5 Peter
Bought this for our Ford Ranger to carry kayaks. With the j channel kayak mounts this is the perfect height. We are very pleased with it.

4 jdw1958
Works great. Like most Thule products the instructions are at best vague. Plan on redoing it at least once. The biggest challenge is the integration with the Caprock. When you put a Caprock over the back you take off the cross bars. So now you have two crossbars with no known future to store or throw away( bleh). I would also note that another three inches in height would make the product much more versatile, as others have noted. All- in- all though a great product!
