Cargo Carrier Recommendations Needed

[toolbelt diva]

Does anyone have either of these cargo carriers from HF and would you recommend either? Or would you recommend one from someplace else?

For some reason your links don't work. Here are some that do:

I've no experience with either but I would go for the aluminum one. It won't rust and it will be a lot lighter for the same weight carrying capacity. It also has higher sides.

I've got the 92655 and would recommend it highly. Very well built and being that it's aluminum its lightweight and very easy to mount. It does go on sale on a fairly regular basis so I wouldn't pay the full $80 price for it.

Thank you so much for the recommendations. Someone posted a $59.99 coupon for the aluminum one in the Bargain Alerts section, so based on your recommendations and the sale price we'll be getting that one.

Advantages to the aluminum are 1/2 the weight, rust proof, and rails on all for sides. I would go that route unless you need the open ends or extra 11" of length for what you will normally carry.
