About Thule 614 Pulse Rack, Medium, Black
Overall Feedback:
89% positive
83% liked the easy access to gear, while 17% found it inconvenient
I find the Thule Pulse M to be a great product for road trips. I specifically enjoy its size because it is not overly large but still easy for me to mount/dismount. This is a huge plus as other roof top cargo boxes might be challenging to mount/dismount due to weight or size.
I faced difficulty in securing the latches due to my height.
88% praised its durability, but 12% experienced tears
I have taken a few trips with the cargo box and my only complaint is that I cannot rely on the lock.
I broke one key and bent the other to the point it cracked and almost broke on a single trip. This indicates that the product is not durable enough.
I am dissatisfied with the product's durability as it is made of thin and flexible plastic.
91% found it easy to install
During my recent eight hour trip, I noticed no road noise and found the installation to be very easy.
Connecting the cargo box to the cross-bars is easy with the mounting clamps.
84% liked the secure storage, but 16% found it vulnerable to theft
I am dissatisfied with the security of the vehicle-soft-shell-carrier. The plastic used in its construction feels cheap and I am fairly confident that I could rip it off the rack even if it is mounted tightly and open it with my bare hands without any tools.
I am not satisfied with the lock of the cargo box. I faced a situation where I was worried that I would not be able to get the key out and the box would not lock. This shows my negative sentiment towards the security of the vehicle-soft-shell-carriers.
81% appreciated its water-resistant feature, but 19% experienced leakage
I am disappointed with the mounting system as it allows water to seep in through the continuous slits in the bottom of the box.
