Great Product
Bought this topper for my family car (Honda Pilot) and it worked so well! Couldn’t even tell it was on the car. Drove mostly on the highway, average speed of 75 mph. Would recommend this to anyone looking for additional storage

nice size and easy on-off install
This is the perfect size for the top of my truck camper. I do wish the opening directions could be changed (passenger side only). Lock is a little finicky as all 3 pins need to be fully lined up for it to work. Clamping system is simple and fast.

Lock freezes - do not buy
The lock freezes at -5C. You can drive with it unlocked, but it flies open. It's absolutely useless if you want to use it for skis.

Great low topper for my Subaru
We got this to carry skis on my Subaru Outback. It is nice and low profile. Only downside is it's a tad long for my car so the tailgate hits the back of the box and we can't move it forward any more. Rather than that we are pumped on this box to use in the winter!

Very Satisfied!
My Thule box arrived so quickly and was easy to attach. It holds skis and gear and looks slick on my car! It’s easy to open and close.

Great Gear Addition!
I used my Thule box for the first time last week camping and it is amazing how much stuff fits in the Pulse M! Saved valuable space in my vehicle for sleeping but allowed me to have all my gear locked up at night.

Easy to install.
The claw system means you just put it on the roof bars and tighten the claws took 5 minuets.

Great for what it is
I’ve been using the Pulse Alpine for a couple months with no issues when used properly. Does not add a lot of noise. I would give it higher rating but it is a little hard to open and close. We found we need a taller unit but it works well for 5 to travel for a weekend getaway.

Could have been a 5
great product but slightly overpriced in my opinion. lots of bad reviews regarding the latch system, I have yet to have a problem with it. Make sure to load it down with at least a little bit of weight, if you don't it will wobble at highway speeds. I threw my gym bag up there and strapped it in with the included straps to keep the weight toward the front and it stayed very still with no wobble on a 3 hour drive. Also, I'm sure this goes without saying but this will cause a slight decrease in fuel efficiency (mpg). In my experience I have noticed a decrease of about 4-5mpg highway.
