    J’utilise ce produit pour charger et décharger mon canot sur mon véhicule seul sans l’aide de personne. Il est efficace et rempli le travail demandé sans difficulté. La seule faiblesse, c’est l’écrou situé au centre de la barre transversale sur laquelle est fixé la pointe du canot. J’ai un canot en aluminium. L’écrou endommage l’aluminium. J’ai usiné une pièce de veneer 1/2 pouce d’épaisseur en lui perçant un trou au centre pour compenser l’épaisseur de l’écrou et le libérer pour qu’il fasse son travail. Ma seule déception, c’est qu’à la réception de mon colis celui-ci était déchiré et il manquait une pièce à l’intérieur. Il s’agit d’un autocollant en caoutchouc synthétique.

    Pros: This rack is well designed and the construction is very sturdy. It does, as it claims, allow one person to mount a canoe without assistance. Some trial and error is required though to adjust the rack height correctly so the canoe height is correct for the truck roof but once that's done you don't have to adjust it again unless you're going to change truck models. The rack comes with an adapter plate that is supposed to connect under an existing towing ball to a ball mount. This allows you to tow a trailer at the same time. Since I won't be doing that, and because this seemed awkward to me, I purchased another ball mount so it has its own.
    Cons: The peel-and-stick rubber bumpers that that go on the crossbar to protect the canoe came off after only one use, so I'll have to figure out another way to protect the canoe at the contact points. Also, the bungie cord that's supplied to presumably secure the canoe to the rack for loading and transport is laughable. I certainly wouldn't trust that to hold the canoe in place, either for loading or transport, so do yourself a favour and use a more secure fastening method.

    Fait tout ce qu'elle avance. Le canot est facile à monter sur le toit avec cette astuce et son rajout assure un point d'attache et de soutiens supplémentaire pour mieux répartir les efforts sur la galerie. Complet et les pièces sont de bonne dimension et de bonne qualité. J'aurais apprécié plus de rigidité de l'ensemble lors du montage sur le toit d'un canot aux dimensions maximales, mais je comprends que les efforts au bout d'un levier peuvent permettre un certain mouvement. Très satisfait.

    Good to have to be able to lift my heavy canoe on top of my Jeep. Wish it tilts because once installed, I cannot open the Jeep's tailgate anymore since it's in the way. In the process, I learned to load the canoe, unhook the whole loader and stow it in the back of the Jeep so that I can free up tailgate access to the cargo area. Same when unloading: open up the tailgate, pull the loader out. Install it. Unload the canoe then uninstall it and stow it back in. So I am always planning around it while I shouldn't be.
    Reese: I am sure you can fabricate an tilt adapter for tailgates so that it stays on all the time. Sell it as an add-on or maybe a Version 2.0. I'll buy it. Thanks.

    This piece of equipment is very well made and fit for purpose. Very easy to use, makes loading the 18' canoe so single user friendly! I would have no problem recommending this item to others.
    Once loaded and tied down to the vehicle rack I noticed the support was a little shakey, so I added a couple of light quick latch corded tie downs to each side of the trailer receiver. Not only did this take all the slack out of the post it also added some directional stability to the canoe in cross winds. Basically it provided three point contact.

    This is heavy but simple construction and seems well enough made. You still have to get one end of the upside down canoe on the crossbar, but after that, loading the canoe to the car by yourself is much easier. Beware you need a wide parking spot on the rotation side.
