Seems solid, easy installation
Seems solid. Looks like a good rack for the price. Side bar clamps fit a wide range of vehicles.Easy install took about 20 minutes or so to get it set up. Measure it out so it’s even, install it and then install the rubber after. Easy to measure and cut and pops right in. Looks good, seems sturdy. Will see how it holds up.

YES.
UPDATE:with nothing on the rods, it is noisy. Sounds like I've left a window open. I did the wind strip all the way to the edge when it's locked. It's not a whistles so much as you can hear the sound of it dragging air.I might try to move the location of them to see if the air passes more smoothly elsewhere in the roof with these crossbars.I haven't drive at full speed, yet- so I'll update then about the road volume.It fits Kia Carnival 2024.Took about 45 minutes to install alone.

Good value
I was looking for a moderate priced set of roof racks that could carry a reasonable amount of weight and still look stylish. I think this rack fits the bill. The packaging was very thoughtful. The racks were well protected and arrived without defect. The installation was very straightforward. Rack came with two keys. It has rubber gaskets you install on the underside of the racks to reduce wind noise. When we drive on the road there is a slight whistle sound. Nothing too off putting. The racks feel very secure on the roof. I would recommend these without reservation.

Look great on 2020 Jeep Cherokee
Once I figured out how to open the clamp style mount they fit and worked great . The directions weren’t too good . First open the lock then you have to back the Allen out all the way until it stops . Do all four clamps . Don’t take the lock nuts off . The thing that sucks is you put them on ,get them where you want them , and take a measurement for the bottom rubber then take them off to install it . It is needed to keep wind noise at bay .But they look great and I’m sure they will work great as well . They feel really solid on the factory bars . As far as wind noise … not bad … it’s starts about 45 mph as a low growl and doesn’t get any worst at 70 mph . Not bad at all . I haven’t carried anything yet though . For the $ … great deal .

So noisy we had to remove!!!!
The rack was easy to install and works great. We were extremely happy with saving hundreds of dollars until we actually drive the car with it installed. It makes such an incredible racket at speeds above 35 mph!!! We tried installing all the little rubber pieces into the tracks to quiet it but nothing worked. The noise is so bad we had to remove the stupid thing and buy a Yakima. It is 4 times more expensive but we’ll worth it because we can actually leave it on the car and use it full time with almost zero noise. Don’t wast your money on this junk. Spend the extra money and get something that works quietly.

They'll do in a pinch.
The price there charging for these, I would expect slightly higher build quality. Plastic is pretty cheap, and they look pretty cheap. I don't necessarily trust them to hold all the weight reclaim they can. They're very loud when driving on the highway, and when they're locked the keyhole is covered by a big red circle that looks stupid.

Brightlines 53 inch Cross Bars
I purchased several cross bars and had to return them. These were the only ones that fit my 2019 Jeep Cherokee perfectly. Nice and sturdy, key lock, easy to install, and to move or uninstall them. When installed, the bars lock in place to keep them from moving not only from front to back but also from side to side.Cons: The T-Slots are too small in size. I purchased the Rhino-Rack Nautica #580 Kayak Carriers and they will not fit the T-Stot on these bars. I had to return them. However the Rhino-Rack Nautica #570 (the ones that clamp on around the bar) work perfectly.
