I love the Malone truck bed and roof load extender! As a cancer patient, I have lost a lot of strength recently, and loading my heavy kayak alone was too much. With this, I can either load it inside my Toyota Highlander or turn the extender to load it on the roof rack. Now I am able to get out without having to bother people for help.
Great product at a good price. Very solidly built and easy to use with a 2" inch hitch receiver. In my case, I need an extension when it's the vertical position, but that's only a few bucks more. I've used it in both horizontal and vertical configurations to haul lumber, fencing and plywood using my mid-sized SUV. It's not the same as having a pick-up truck, but for the handful of times I need to carry stuff like that, it's a lot less expensive and takes up next to no space when stored.
Extender was easy to assemble. It is exactly as advertised and what I had hoped it would be.
Well made and sturdy. While I haven’t hauled anything yet, having sat on it to see how sturdy it was, I’m confident it will perform.
I bought it to haul long lumber but I believe it could also be used to haul a couple of kayaks.
Would recommend.
This rating is for the easy, clear, and supportive customer service when I called to ask questions and then placed the order. Very pleasant transactions.
Aldo, the delivery was as scheduled with good followup delivery notification
I only had the opportunity to use the extender 1 time to haul a 18ft sea kayak in the bed of my chevy colorado. Worked well and the boat was stable in transport.
Thank you
Value driven purchase -- IMO eTrailer is "the" online retailer -- the Malone extender is EZ to assemble, and works as advertised -- shipment via UPS with no issues -- three days from online order to doorstep-- as we say down south, "ya can't beat it with a stick" -- great email follow up from real person & not a third party marketing company -- eTailer is my "go to" for truck accessories -- cheers //
Works like it should. I needed to make my Porsche Macan into a truck. Every June I remove vegetation for fire prevention to a debris bin to a local park. I made the bed out of 1x6 and it doubles as a work bench. It only takes about 10 minutes to transform the Macan.
etrailer’s service, processing and shipping was excellent. Product is solid US engineering and manufacturing. A bit more money than similar on [online], but I’ve had Chinese shackles fail under load. Not taking a chance with a load at highway speeds.
Looks good. Easy to adjust. I will use it in a front hitch for long boards / scaffolding.
I have owned this extender for one year +. I use it to carry two 12.5 ft. Kayaks. The extender does its job, safely and securely carries the yaks all over the Midwest. The only modification I made was to the "goalpost uprights" I cut a swimming noodle to length, cut a slit to allow the noodle to fit over the uprights. The uprights are a hard point of contact, and needed something to protect the kayak. Quality product.
Awesome company you deal with knowledgeable humans on their products,great prices and they do what they say!!!!! I will recommend etrailer to all......
Have it come with a wire harness for turn and brake lights
This is a very nice bed extender. It’s strong,easy to assemble and meets safety requirements.I love mine and use it everyday at work.
versatile, and easy to use.
Let me count the ways ! High quality stuff, low prices, great customer service, and free shipping with lightning fast delivery. I hope I never have to go anywhere else
Haven't had a chance to use it but it seems to be very well-made, went together very easily. Took all of 10 minutes to assemble it and hook it to the back of my pick up looks like it's going to do the job.
Well built but joints a but wobbly due to mismatch tube size. I had to shim all of them . Also the anti wobble attachment is not useful if you take the rack of and on often as it has be bolted on with a socket wrench every time.
It works great, easily adjustable and sturdy! The stabilizer is key.
Easy to assemble and use. I'm using it primarily for hauling long kayaks in a short bed pickup.
etrailer processed and shipped the Malone Axis Truck Bed and Roof Load Extender on the same day ordered and it arrived 3 days later. Assembly was a breeze and it appears to be just what we needed for carrying long loads in our Tacoma bed or going vertical with the extender and using it for loads across the roof or over the tailgate. We look forward to putting it to use with 10 ft kayaks, a 17 ft canoe and all sorts of lumber and other long items. It is heavy duty, well built and flexible in how to orient the extender for a given load. The parts are a bit loose fitting so expect a bit of rattling, but that may better than tight fitting pieces that could be difficult to assemble. It comes with a brace that fits over the top of your hitch and over the 2x2 tube of the extender to firmly stabilize it in place at the hitch. My bet is the load on the extender will tighten the other components so rattle may only be noticeable when in the hitch without any load on it. So far, it appears to be just what we needed in terms of flexibility of use (vertical and horizontal) and in the load it will handle (375 lbs).
Product is as advertised and makes transporting items that are longer than the bed of your truck much safer.
The support seems to be well made and should work for my truck. There is a problem when assembling the two sections of the long support. It is very difficult to slide the second metal section onto the coupler which joins the parts. I had to file the weld on the inside of the tube and sand off all of the paint plus use grease on the other piece to get the tube to slide on. The safety pin is not needed because they are never coming apart again. Other than that it seems to be a good choice and to me is worth the additional money over the less expensive choices because the unit is designed to carry 4 x 8 sheets of material.
Works great in my 2013 F-150 5.5ft bed. I like how the bottom bar is angled upward, this prevents it from scraping on my steep driveway.
I ordered some extra DOT red/white reflective tape from Amazon to add to what was already there.
The anti-wobble clamp bracket is a big plus, not every bed extender comes with one of these and those that don't have it rattle back and forth everytime you go over a little bump.
My main use is lumber and my kayak.
Finally had an opportunity to use our new Malone Axis Bed Extender today and was very pleased. Needed the bed extender to transport my 12 ft. kayak. It was easy to assemble & install and remained stable throughout transport. It's heavy-duty construction ensures it will remain useful for many tasks in the future. It's better than I hoped it would be; just an excellent product.
Perfect for helping me load a 15' Gheenoe on my truck roof racks. The versatility of being able to reconfigure the carrier so it supports the canoe when transported in the truck bed is very convenient,
After I purchased on line from etrailer for I received a Cabelas catalog the day after I received this product, where it was advertised.
