good but not that great
bought this a couple of weeks ago at the REI in Spokane. I am very pleased the rack is far more stable than the Thule Gateway it replaced. The straps on the Gateway busted and dumped our bikes on the road. The vinyl coated wire is rock solid and the way to keep them tight is well thought out too. I've watched the rack on washboard and as we leave the road to the trailhead and the rack an bikes stay stable.
Unfortunately the spacing between the cradles is too close (6 inches) and the bike handle bars end up in the other bike. On our Trek 520s they end up in the wheel of the other bike. You really can't adjust the position of the cradles because they fit into notched out portion on the metal support arm. Not good. In addition one of the No sway cages pops out every time we load a bike and is therefore useless.
We like the stability of the carrier. We like the ease of use of placing the rack on the car, taking it off and dropping the support arm when not hauling bikes. We really dislike the bikes being nestled into each other during transport. We are going to return the two bike option and pick up the three bike if it can handle our two road bikes. Maybe there is enough separation to avoid the handle bars being nestled into the wheel of the other bike on our road bikes.

Perfection comes with a price
In my expansive search of a sturdy and easy to use rack this was the best solution.
I used a variety of racks in the past and this is extremely easy to attach and secure to the vehicle.

Good bike rack BUT won't work with some bikes.
Very well made bike rack but won't work with some bike styles. This rack worked great for my road bike but was unusable for my full suspension mountain bike. There was simply no way to secure the rack to my bike around its rear shock. I also tried it with my 29'er hard tail but the fit on the top tube didn't work very well either. I'm really sorry it didn't work for me - I liked the way the rack fit my car and the way it locked.

Perfect for road bikes
I bought this for my girlfriend and I to take our road bikes places, and this does it securely and in style. I love the vinyl covered wires and the secure locking mechanism. It is very easy to install. I have it on my 2017 VW Jetta, it is a little heavy so you must help push the trunk open, but I don't see that as a real issue. Other than that, it's perfect. I prefer the heavy duty build.

Bike Rack Review
Well made, not difficult to install and simple to mount bike on rack. If using this rack on a station wagon or SUV, check to see if you can use rear windshield wiper while the rack is attached to the vehicle.

Great product. Exceeds expectations.
Securely attaches to trunk of Subaru Legacy. Need to lift trunk with rack attached to fasten lower clips to trunk. The mechanism to tighten the cables makes attachment easy, quick, and secure. As always with these, it is very important to remove any dirt from painted surfaces where there is contact with the rack.
