The largest xl comes in at 56 pounds which is a fair weight to move around despite the five thick layers of abs plastic that make up the diamond textured aeronskin shell.

Thule force roof box review.

The thule force xt sport is a good choice as an occasional roof box so for instance if you re likely to only need it a few times a year for holidays or trips away. The base has a lip that the cover extends over but even sitting on the garage floor the cover didn t entirely close. Two full size suitcases and two carryons which fit nicely into the cargo box can easily be 150 lb on their own. It s sturdy well built and secure.

This is a total of 212 lbs which far exceeds the 150 lb roof rack limit specified by subaru. The convenient dual side access allows you to open the box from both the driver and passenger side which is a big bonus as it is not always practical to use one side of your car. Many users have praised this product for good reasons. The cargo box is 47 lb and has a 165 lb load capacity.

The thule force xt roof box includes a clever opening system called the lockknob and the thule comfort key can be used on either side of the box. Thule generally has great products but the force cargo box line was made with a horrible design flaw. The thule force cargo box is one of the best thule cargo boxes.
