Easy to install

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Thule Force 3 was quick and easy to mount, and I love the dual side entry which makes it convenient to access gear from either side of the vehicle. The box seems very durable, and I love the sleek, aerodynamic shape of it. In addition to the shape of the box acting as a natural handle to open and close the box, there is a pull cord to help easily pull the box closed. The locking system makes it easy to lock with a sliding mechanism, and it clearly clicks when it is securely closed.

Great for Lake trip

Great product and looks sporty with the finish. Durable and good amount of space for extra cargo if you have third row seats for the kids. Great for beach trips and the lake or any outdoor activities that require gear. Easy to mount

Perfect Size and Super Convenient for Camping Trip

I’ve been really impressed with the Thule Force 3 L for car road trip camping. It’s been a game-changer for keeping gear out of the vehicle and freeing up interior space. The size is perfect — it easily fits numerous containers, and I’ve found it to be just right for extra camping gear without being too bulky. Opening and closing it is simple, and mounting it on my own was no problem. I’m glad I chose this size, as it offers plenty of capacity while still being manageable. Highly recommend for anyone looking to add storage and organization to their camping trips.

Thule Force 3 L & Thule WingBar Edge

I’ve already installed the roof box on my Ford Explorer, and it fits really well with the car’s appearance. At around 120 km/h, there’s not much noticeable wind noise. Being able to open it from both sides is very convenient. Overall, I’m quite satisfied. The only thing is that the roof rack crossbars are secured with rubber straps. I plan to keep the crossbars on for the whole winter without removing them, so I’m not sure about their durability. I’ll keep monitoring it.

Great Purchase

Have a jeep grand Cherokee and this fit perfectly on the jeep crossbars. It packs more than you would think. It looks sleek on top of the vehicle and is super easy to install. Definitely recommend and would purchase again in a heartbeat. It also was delivered relatively fast, I think it was about 5 days.

Perfect addition to our setup

Got this as a wedding gift and it has been perfect for transporting all our stuff between family houses, moving, camping, really all our activities! Fits just right on our Subaru Crosstrek & just barely fits both our skis (length-wise).

Replacement box

Had. Thule Cascade for years but wanted the newer lower profile and the better attachment mechanism. Force 3 large does the trick.
