  • The quality of the box is low-quality due to the lack of durability.
  • The lid is flimsy and difficult to open while on the go.

Summary:

The Yakima RocketBox Pro 11 Cargo Box is an easy-to-use, simple, and user-friendly portable storage method for ski gear or other outdoor items. However, the lack of durability, cheap materials, and low-quality construction does not make this cargo box a good choice for those who want a multi-year product to withstand tough driving and weather conditions.
