Super impressed with this product. It works!
Size: 50"
I am really impressed with the Malone Versarail. It is easy enough to attach in just a few minutes (after the initial installation which takes 45 min or so); it is secure enough for highway driving; and it is quiet (it doesn't create wind noise when you are speeding along at 70 mph). The key is to read and follow the instructions. And, I rather think this isn't a good long term solution for transporting kayaks; I plan to stop using it once I see signs of wear. We use it on my wife's 2002 Honda Civic, to carry two kayaks on Thule Hullaport J-hooks. I worried that it would be little better than strapping the boats on the roof with foam blocks. But it isn't like that all all. The product itself is sturdy. The bars rest on large suction cups at the bottom of the adjustable towers. You position the suction cups as close to the edge of the car roof as possible, because that is where the car frame is strongest. So unlike what happens when you strap kayaks on foam blocks on a bare roof, with the Malone versarail you won't dent your roof. The instructions say that the product works even if one of the suction cups gets unstuck. But so far, that hasn't happened. Once you attach the straps that go through the car doors and give each tower a push, the suction cups stick well and the bars are surprisingly stable. The suction cups are easy to unstick by pulling a tab, and they do not leave any marks that I have noticed. The straps and metal buckles are very strong. The straps may not seem to pull very tightly, but once you close the doors they are sufficiently tight. The straps do not vibrate or cause noise as you speed along down the road. The first installation isn't hard, but it is just a bit fussy. You need to position the towers evenly, and the bars within the towers. Don't overtighten the metal screw that attaches the towers to the bars; there is supposed to be some looseness here. You need to position the bars at least 2 feet apart. What we did after the first use was to mark the position of the towers on the car roof with a sharpie marker. The marks fade in time (but we don't care because it is an old car). This makes it very easy to set up for the next trip. We take the Malone Versa rail off the car after each trip and then install it anew for the next trip. I am pretty sure that it what the manufacturers intend you do do. So its not like an expensive Thule or Yakima car roof rack that you install once and leave there for good. The reason to not store it strapped to your car is that sun and rain could wear out the straps, and once they go, the product isn't going to work. We have used it for trips involving a few hours of driving on the freeway with no problem. Be sure to follow the instructions carefully. They say important things like, don't use the product in the rain. Water will run through the straps and into the car. I am not sure the suction cups will work as well if wet. The instructions say to remove dust with a cloth from the suction cups and the part of the roof where they will be sticking. This improves the suction. Be sure to buy the right length bars for your car. I have no idea how long the product lasts. If I see any wear or tear on the straps or suction cups I plan to discontinue using it. For us, this is a very affordable (I think I paid $140) short term solution for carrying kayaks on a car that we do not plan to keep long enough for it to be worth fitting with a $500 to $700 Thule or Yakima roof rack. If you don't have a lot of money but you want to take up kayaking or some other hobby that requires hauling things on your older car, this will probably work for you, for a while at least.

Outstanding
Size: 58"
I recently purchased a universal roof rack for my 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe, and I must say it has been an absolute game-changer for my adventures! This remarkable accessory has truly exceeded my expectations! First and foremost, the installation process was a breeze. The rack came with clear and concise instructions that made the setup quick and hassle-free. Within no time, it was securely attached to my vehicle, and I was ready to hit the road. One of the standout features of this roof rack is its exceptional build quality. Constructed with sturdy and durable materials, it feels incredibly robust and reliable. I have used it on multiple trips, and it has effortlessly withstood various weather conditions, including heavy rain and scorching sun, while keeping my cargo safe and sound. I particularly appreciate the versatility of this roof rack. It boasts an adjustable design that caters to my specific needs. Whether I'm carrying bikes, kayaks, or luggage, this rack can be easily modified to accommodate everything I throw at it. This versatility has truly expanded the capabilities of my Santa Fe, allowing me to transport larger items and make the most out of my journeys. The safety features on this roof rack are impeccable. The built-in locking mechanism ensures that my gear stays securely in place throughout my entire trip. I have complete peace of mind knowing that my belongings are safe and won't budge, even on rough terrains or during high-speed drives. Furthermore, the stylish design of the roof rack adds a touch of elegance to my Santa Fe. It seamlessly integrates with the vehicle's aesthetic, complementing its overall look without appearing bulky or out of place. Lastly, I must highlight the exceptional customer service provided by the company. They were prompt in answering my questions and addressed any concerns I had with utmost professionalism and care. Their dedication to ensuring customer satisfaction has only added to my positive experience. In conclusion, this universal roof rack has been a fantastic addition to my 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe. Its easy installation, durability, versatility, and top-notch safety features make it a remarkable choice. If you're looking to enhance your vehicle's storage capacity and embark on exciting adventures, I highly recommend this roof rack for its outstanding performance.

The solution to the problem.
Size: 58"
Ok. Like many vehicles out there on the market, mine didn't have any way to attach a cargo carrier at all. Thus, options for cross bars are limited. It's all fine and dandy if you already have those side rails that run the length of the vehicle, many option exist for cross bars that simply attach to those rails. However, what happens if you don't have those? Enter the Malone VersaRail Bare Roof Cross Rail Rack! These babies were the answer to my prayers when it comes to a functional cross bar for vehicles without side rails. I first tried a unit by a different manufacturer that simply used tension to secure the rails to the inside door frame of the vehicle. Not a good idea. Poor fit on my vehicle led to one of the bars coming off while traveling down a busy highway and nearly hitting the vehicle behind me. This, even after tightening the unit prior to taking off! Not good at all. This may not be the case with every vehicle, but if your door frames are even the slightest bit wide or have much depth to them from the roof of the vehicle, the tension style is NOT the way to go. On the other hand, this Malone unit utilizes suction cups for stability and is secured to the vehicle using straps that are secured within the vehicle using a ratchet strap-like mechanism. Now don't be put off by my use of the term ratchet strap. The straps that hold the unit on the vehicle are a breeze to attach without fussing with any actual ratcheting actions. Just loop it through, pull it tight, and let go of the locking mechanism. Done! Another plus to this system? No worrying whilst on the road! Pro-tip - With the tension unit, I was constantly looking up through my skylight to make sure nothing had come loose. With this subject design, as long as the straps are connected inside the car, there is nothing to worry about! I have used these cross bars on about three separate occasions all with a heavily loaded Thule cargo XL carrier and never had an issue with load bearing capabilities. No sag in the cross bars, not twisting of the rails, no movement on the suctions cups. Nothing. Overall, if your looking for a solid, dependable cross bar unit, this one fits the bill.

Much more stable than expected
I was a little worried when we first put these on the car. I mean, trusting our brand new kayaks to a few suction cups seemed a bit crazy, but it was easy enough to install and fit well. I am still a little nervous about taking it up to freeway speeds, but it works well so far on shorter journeys. My only complaint it having to have the straps right in front of my face inside the car while I am driving. For those looking for specifics, my husband and I mounted this on a 2013 Sentra, added some J hooks, and used it to haul 2 Pescador Pro 12 SOT Kayaks from our landing back to our truck at our drop point. Together the yaks weigh about 130 Lbs so it is a pretty good measure of how sturdy these cross rails are. Although we didn't drive far (20 miles) we did go down some really bumpy dirt roads with steep hills and these held in place perfectly.

Easy to install!
Size: 50"
I was unsure whether to buy this rack or one of the cheaper foam rafts. I decided to go with this one because I was worried about the kayaks being secure. I am very happy I spent the extra money! I used this roof rack on a Toyota Camry and attached two set of J hooks to the rack. The process of setting up the rack, adding the J hooks and attaching the rack to my car was really easy and fast. It took a little playing around to position the suction cups on a flat part of my roof, but once that was done the whole thing felt very secure. My husband and I have used it a few times to transport two kayaks and it seems very sturdy and we've had no problems. It makes a little noise when we go higher than 65 MPH but it doesn't seem like it's at risk of falling off or anything.

Great Quality and price
Size: 50"
Such a great set for the price. The straps are thick good quality and this system along with a pair of foldable j racks has my 07 BMW 5 series doing some work for a change. I bought these because I didn’t want to make the 500+ investment for custom racks for my car. I was worried about the previous comments about rain but haven’t had any trouble and I have had several back to back rainy days. The straps on the inside will certainly give you a bit of issue especially if you have a sun/moon roof and have a bit of a curve on the top of your car like mine. Since I have all that going on, the straps keep me from using the sun visor effectively but that’s why I have shades. The straps do not bother me when driving but I am 5’2 so I barely am bothered by much in the line of head room. They we easy to put together and install and have withstood 50/60 mph driving speeds for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. My mpg dropped, with both boats on as to he expected but not with just the racks on. I leave mine in cause if the weather is right I am known to hit the water on a whim.

Value for money, reliable, easy to assemble
Size: 50"
I used it along with a 15 sq ft car topper bag, I do not have bars on my roof so I needed something like this. It worked okay, but with many stop and go movements it slid forward a bit (after a week straight of traveling- highways and cities). They work pretty well though, it took a solid week of heat, rain, sleet, wind, and sudden movements to make the suctions slide a bit forward. I have enough trust I'll re use them. Also should note I had probably 50-75 lbs of crap pushing them forward, so that's pretty good imo. Worth the money for sure. Very easy to put together, but if you're a short weaker female like myself, you may need help pushing the suctions down and tightening the straps. Did the job at an affordable cost.

Great temporary cross bars for a bare roof vehicle!
Size: 50"
We were traveling for a weekend getaway with a newborn and needed extra storage space. These turned out to be great cross bars. We have a 2014 Chevy Equinox with a bare roof and couldn’t find any alternatives to mounting. I even emailed Thule, Yakima & Rhino and none had anything that would work for our vehicle. The Malone 50” was a perfect fit for our vehicle. Installation was a breeze, definitely easier if you have a 2nd set of hands but it’s simple to put together. Instructions are very clear. Once installed, I tried to move the cross bars and they wouldn’t budge at all! We also purchased a MaxxHaul roof carrier that attaches perfectly to the Malone cross bars along with a large storage bag that allowed us to store about four weekend bags and a compact stroller. I would suggest to check your vehicle’s roof weight capacity before loading. I didn’t hear any wind noise while driving and we were doing between 65-80mph from NYC to PA. I’d say for the price of the rails, it is definitely worth it. Only suggestion I’d have is that you don’t use it in the rain as the straps will get wet and water will slowly get into the vehicle. These are temporary cross bars, not permanent. Great value for price and enough storage for our needs.
