Perfect Travel Companion – Sturdy, Spacious, and Easy to Use!
I recently purchased the Thule Pulse M cargo box for a family road trip, and it exceeded all my expectations. First off, installation was a breeze. It took less than 10 minutes to mount it securely on my SUV's roof rack, and everything felt solid and stable from the get-go. The Pulse M offers the perfect amount of extra space for our gear. We packed two large suitcases, beach toys, golf clubs and a few smaller bags with room to spare. It's amazing how much it holds without feeling oversized or bulky. What really impressed me was how well it handled at highway speeds—no rattling, no excessive noise, and no noticeable impact on fuel efficiency. The aerodynamic design really makes a difference. The locking mechanism is secure and easy to use, giving me peace of mind when leaving the vehicle unattended. The single-side opening is super convenient and made loading and unloading simple, even in tight parking lots. Overall, this cargo box turned out to be an excellent investment. It's rugged, reliable, and has already made our travels so much more comfortable. If you're looking for a durable and stylish solution for extra storage, the Thule Pulse M is absolutely worth it!

One year of use and still going!
Bought this for long trips as we have 3 kids and a dog -- so we need more space even though we have a large SUV. - Overall great product. Fits bags, sleeping bags, etc. Easy to set up. Light enough that I can easily take on/off the car though not sure my wife could. I'm not really sure why you would buy a more expensive one unless you needed a bigger size. Size is pretty much perfect for my family needs. - Latching onto the car roof rack is simple. Seems like it would fit any roof rack bars -- we tried it on our SUV standard ones and our aftermarket bars. Locks on and stays tight entire trip. For long trips I do tie it down too just in case because I am paranoid on fast highways with these things but its stayed perfectly tight so what Im doing is overkill -- but better safe than sorry. - Only real pain is trying to lock it. Its like there is a fine line between everything being too loose or too tight and then when I close and try to lock it, I have to lift up the lid and readjust. Not sure I've ever had one of these that made that easy but there has got to be a way haha. - I assume this will last forever and I'd say its a good in between model between the really cheap and really expensive ones. Makes that perfect for me. I didn't want to cheap out but also didn't need to spend $1200 either. - Finally I can fit this on my SUV and still fit my surfboards or slim cage next to it -- that was a goal of mine and it works with my 60" crossbars easily.

Fits Mazda Factory Racks
I wish I would have bought this years ago. I scoured the web for used boxes and finally bought a new one. The install is insanely quick n easy. Zero tools needed. The clamps worked with factory Mazda bars too. No issues with noise. I was able to fit 8 snowboards and one pair of skis in it( half were splitboards with bindings removed). Drove it 1400 miles on its first trip and forgot it was up there. Highly rec

Its a good unit, a little on the expensive side. Not sure its worth $599 but it did well.
I purchased this "used like new" for $474. I had previously missed out on the deal for $398 and I am still angry at myself for not purchasing the cart. I wouldn't pay $599 new for it. People all over the country buy these and use them one time, like myself So the good I like that it opens from the side. My buddies opens from the back and its a huge hassle. Can't reach anything. As you can see, I used a step to get it mounted, and we traveled with a small folding step stool to make it easier to pack the top. Because it has hinges down one side, and latches down the other, its more sturdy. The lock is in the center, but the latch side actually latches in three places. I liked this. Solid. The mounting system was very easy to use. There isn't a lot of parts. It will grab any oval / wing / square within its size capabilities. You shouldn't have any issues with that. It did the job well. I think I fit more items inside the cargo top than I could in our trunk. It really is the perfect size for a CX5. The bad (well, its not really that bad) When its empty, its pretty floppy and it rattles a lot. This is really thin plastic so it doesn't weigh a lot, but it also doesn't have much structure. When its full, its more rigid and there's no rattling or noise. So that's good. The only added noise was a little bit of wind noise when the sunroof shade is open. There's no weather strip or seal around it. There's about 2-3" of plastic that overhangs a lip. This doesn't seem to affect it too negatively, in the rain. There's plenty of free play so I might add some. So here's the bad bad - Its not completely water proof. The water seems to come in from the slot system in the bottom. Even in a light rain we got a little water inside. We had to drive home through tropical storm Ophelia. It was crazy. So we first put a couple towels down in the bottom of the cargo box. Then we bagged anything that went inside in black trash bags. I fit the stroller, a travel suit case, the bouncer, 2 diaper bags, 2 bags of toys, youth life jackets, youth "chair in a bag" and some beach accessories on the way home. It fits a lot. Our system worked good; the towels were pretty wet but everything else was relatively dry. In all, I would recommend this unit. Just don't pay $599 for it. Its a giant thing of plastic. It is significantly better than the ones my friends have. IDK why there's no weather stripping whatsoever. And it does get a little water in the bottom so be prepared for that. But it does add a huge, huge amount of space to the CX5. Like, I don't know how we'd even make the trip without it! If you like my writeup click helpful =)

This will be great for Camping and other road trips. It is very easy to mount on top of the crossbars on my Rav4. I would advise keeping large light things up there that you will be able to reach when you dont have a ladder to reach across to the far side. like sleeping bags, pillows etc. Great product!

Si no acomodas bien las cosas y queda ligeramente mal acomodado, el aire hace que se abra y salgan tus cosas quedando tiradas por la carretera. Una vez bien acomodado todo no tiene problema. Contento con la compra, algo caro pero la calidad lo vale. Es algo difícil de guardar cuando no está en uso, en mi caso lo tengo que desmontar pues no es práctico traerlo en el techo todo el tiempo y mi cochera no es muy alta. Pero para viaje con equipaje de cuatro personas es más que suficiente.

Estuvimos buscando algo funcional y necesario, ya que al levantar la tercera fila de asientos, necesitábamos más espacio de carga, ha quedado muy bien, vamos a ver durante su uso como se desempeña, más adelante estaré dando mi opinión nuevamente. Luce muy bonito, perfecto para entrar y salir del estacionamiento de la casa, nada estorboso, y muy ligero para subirlo y ponerlo en la camioneta
