Customer Reviews

Easy assembly. Built like a tank!
I own a Jeep Wrangler. If you know anything about Wranglers, you would know that the trunk in a wrangler is just big enough to hold a pair of socks...if you fold them carefully.

I bought the Valley Deluxe Carrier about 9 camping trips ago and I couldn't be happier! The unit works like a charm. Unlike the last hitch carrier I had, this one has a nice "rise" feature built into it. This is very handy when going up or down steep driveways and roads. I also found that the "rise" feature helps keep your stuff cleaner in rainy/muddy conditions because it puts your items higher off of the ground and away from the tires. I have loaded it to the max and it works flawlessly.

The tall sides are a nice feature that set this unit apart from those of lesser quality.

If you buy this (or any brand) of carrier, be sure to get a nice set of 3 or 4 ratcheting straps to hold your gear in place. Ratcheting straps also hold my kids in place very well as I found that they always seemed to be able to wiggle out of the bungee cords :).

Does what it says but be careful of picture
The hitch worked great, easy to mount and put together. Be careful though, someone uploaded a picture that depicted the hitch being a fold up. You have to buy the folding shank separately for about $75.00. I was a little peeved because I thought it would be a fold up, but in the end I didn't need it to fold. If you plan on using it all the time, for a wheel chair for example, get the folding shank.

This does not fold up without separately sold accessory
The product description is accurate: --this is a Valley Hitch Mounted Basket Cargo Carrier which measures 60 long and 20 wide.

It has a formed 2in. square reversible extension bar to drop or raise position. Heavy-duty, all-steel 5/8in. diameter tubular construction. Weather-resistant black powder coat finish.--

The pictures shown for this item include both the basket itself, and the basket folded up against the back of a truck.

However, the picture of the basket folded up represents the Valley Folding Shank for use w/ Deluxe Hitch Mounted Basket Cargo Carrier # 90590 (ASIN B00078CK58,) which is sold separately.

This Cargo Carrier does not fold without the use of the separately sold Folding Shank.
