Thule Force Roof Box Review

Two full size suitcases and two carryons which fit nicely into the cargo box can easily be 150 lb on their own.

Thule force roof box review.

The front of these boxes don t ever seem to fit together correctly particularly when there is external force applied. Plus the 300 litre of space is very useable despite the powerclick adjusters intruding somewhat. The convenient dual side access allows you to open the box from both the driver and passenger side which is a big bonus as it is not always practical to use one side of your car. The thule force xt sport is a good choice as an occasional roof box so for instance if you re likely to only need it a few times a year for holidays or trips away.

This is a total of 212 lbs which far exceeds the 150 lb roof rack limit specified by subaru. The cargo box is 47 lb and has a 165 lb load capacity. The largest xl comes in at 56 pounds which is a fair weight to move around despite the five thick layers of abs plastic that make up the diamond textured aeronskin shell. The thule force xt roof box includes a clever opening system called the lockknob and the thule comfort key can be used on either side of the box.

It s exactly what you expect from thule. It s sturdy well built and secure. Many users have praised this product for good reasons.
