I love this simple bike rack.
So simple to put on and take off. Good for two lightweight bikes. Well designed and well made. Unlike any other bike rack I've had, I actually love this one. The one issue, not a dealbreaker: sometimes one bike crate slides a few inches down from its designated position. Doesnt cause any operational issues.

Good value for the price, simple to use
Previous reviewers are 100% correct: the instructions are non-existent. I figured out how to install the rack based on the photos I found of similar vehicles. It’s really not that hard once you have an example to follow. Took my bike to a forest preserve this morning and everything seems to be holding up just fine, the bike was stable, nothing shifted. A photo of my Compass is included.

It's perfect for me and easy to install

Cheap but functional for very short distances.
It's easy to install. Looks good. But very flimsy, hard to get the bike to sit solidly on it once driving. The bike shimmies when driving on the highway. Nevertheless, it's functional for the price with very short drives.

Nice and Easy
as advertised. Comes assembled and that makes sense.

Unstable
Tough to get the straps to hold tightly and therefore bike rack wiggles a bit on the carAlso, where the bike is placed on the holding pads of the bike rack, is unstable. The pads slide back and forth while driving and caused a scare that the bike was going to fall off

Fits My 2 Door
Note: Got this from Amazon Warehouse so the deal was smokin good.I have a Hyundai Genesis Coupe and since I traded in my Crown Vic for this thing I lost anything that could lug a mountain bike around. I did a lot of research and the Saris models were recommended by other coupe owners. I looked at the difference between the Boned and Guardian and decided that for the price the Guardian would be a winner.Slides up on my trunk no problem. Felt sturdy when I got all the straps in place as well. I’m only using it for one bike as well. But it’s cool I have the option to bring a friends bike. The straps look okay. Wouldn’t mind thicker ones or maybe I’ll get a second set just in case. But outside of that I’m happy with it.Overall this looks like a good match for my 2 Door Coupe. Really happy with it.

Reliable for one women's bike
I purchased this primarily for a multi-state drive/move and didn't have room for the bike in the trailer. So it ended up on the back of my car. I have a women's bike so it doesn't have a bar that goes straight across, so for 9 hours it sat cock-eyed. I was worried about it falling off a few times but it was pretty sturdy. I had to adjust it about 2 or 3 times during the drive because the weight distribution made the handle bars/front of the bike scoot away from the car. I would be much less concerned driving shorter distances.
