4 stars because they're a bit of a faff to work out, especially the locking system, instructions aren't the greatest. However, they secure to the roof well, they're cheap and they do the job, don't expect Thule type rack, these are just a good cheap rack set, no better and no worse than a Thule in their primary job, secured two canoes to my roof happily. Just remember for curved roof cars or low roof rails to switch the ends so they are on the outside of the roof and not inside, and to unlock them when doing them up.

An OK roof rack but with some design failings. Fitting is relatively easy but the actual grip mechanism around the existing roof bars that come with our Berlingo is poor. It is let down with the too flimsy wheel nut tightening up the grippers. It took a long while to stop the roof racks from slipping along. Tightening the plastic wheel is difficult as it faces down near the car roof so is really hard to get your fingers in. The tighten flaps with a lock one each side are OK but they get in the way of loads which can easily flip them up and loosen the whole rack. A simpler tightening mechanism with a larger locking nut that you can tighten with a spanner would have been much better. The locking device is to be honest not much help as there is only one lock for each bar. You can easily loosen the other non-lockable side and then pull the whole bar off. I'll use it but only for light loads.Read full review

The quality is good, and it was value for money. It has it''s drawbacks as a universal roof bars as the shape of the locking mechanism is opposite to the shape of the longitudinal bars on the C-Max. There is also wind noise at speeds in excess of 60 mph

The installation instructions say to tighten clamp to roof rail, then flip plastic clamp over. If this is complied with, it is not then possible to flip the clamp over. This fold-over clamp feels physically that it will self release with little persuasion. The metal component of the clamp distorts whilst securing to the roof roof rail under reasonable force to effect the operation. The flip-over clamp material is not of metal and feel the thin plastic will not have much longevity. The lock is only on one end (difficult to see both ends of bar in the photo). Not confident these roof bars would remain in place for more than a short journey. Overall opinion - Poor

The product does not fit, the bolt holding it to the roof bars is cheap and nasty, i would not recommend them to anyone, the rubber that's there to protect the roof bars is rubbish its loose and is not fitted, the bolt knob is hard to get to and i would hate to try to use these on the main road, save your money and shop elsewhere.
