Thule SideKick Rooftop Cargo Box is a compact titan, tailor-made for smaller loads. You know, the golf clubs you’d love to bring along for that weekend getaway, or the camping gear for that spontaneous nature retreat. The SideKick has been an absolute lifesaver, freeing up invaluable space inside my car.
One of my favorite aspects of the SideKick is its sturdy U-bolts, complete with reinforcement plates and adjustable brackets. These provide a secure fit to the rack, giving me peace of mind as I take on the open road.
Its compact design has an added benefit. It leaves enough room for other roof-mounted accessories, making it an ideal choice for those who like to bring along a little bit of everything. But here’s the real clincher – the passenger-side opening. It’s such a practical feature, making loading and unloading a breeze. No more climbing over the car or reaching over the roof to access your gear.
Now let’s talk dimensions. The SideKick offers 8 cubic feet of storage space, with external dimensions at 54 x 25 x 15.5 inches and internal dimensions at 48 x 23 x 13.5 inches. Despite its compact size, it has an impressive load capacity of 75 pounds. The product itself is lightweight, tipping the scales at just 16 pounds.
The ease of use is a major selling point for the SideKick. Its space-saving design still leaves plenty of room for other items on the roof rack. Plus, it includes 2 locks to secure box contents and lock the box to the carrier, adding an extra layer of security.
Durability is another area where the SideKick shines. Its heavy-duty design safeguards your gear and helps to keep out the elements, which I can attest to after a few unexpected downpours. Lastly, it’s designed for a perfect fit. It fits Thule rack systems, round bars, and most factory racks seamlessly.
