Material:
The box of Farad is an eye-catcher, the curved shape pleased with their curves and glossy paint is beautiful and in harmony with the car my wife - Black Metallic paint - excellent, but this is certainly a matter of taste. Unfortunately, the surface is very sensitive, but that should not normally interfere with careful handling and careful storage on.
The plastic is very thin, but the ground is sufficiently stable due to the spiral shape.
The plastic covers for the anchor system were with me strangely, all bent (which had already raised fears regarding the quality for me). This should actually be foldable, which hardly works because they do not hold then. Practically plays but absolutely no role.
Assembly:
The transport should be carried out by 2 persons, the box is quite easy, but not to handle very well due to the dimensions of a person - if need be you go but. This is of course in alternative boxing me comparable volume similar.
The installation is very quick of hand, in 10 minutes, the box is mounted using a folding step of the vehicle without causing scratches on the vehicle roof. Without folding step assembly is cumbersome because you then not well come to the mounting kits due to the width of the box of one of the two sides. In particular, the opening of the fixation requires some force.
Practice:
A cloudburst and abundant rainfall has survived dry the contents of the box.
Two tensioning straps are included, which can be used to secure the load.
The two-sided opening mechanism seems to me not particularly reassuring, but it works flawlessly so far. Then a lifetime warranty is given, so the manufacturers seem to be convinced that the mechanism also works reliably in the long term.
There are included 2 keys for the locks, additional keys can if necessary - eg after loss - available from the manufacturer - allegedly even after many years.
Conclusion:
I would buy the box again, who paid me a price of 284 (free shipping) was very low. As the biggest shortcoming I find the sensitivity of the surface.
