The shortbed is well made and comes with bungies, which was a pleasant surprise. It’s stable and doesn’t rattle, thanks to the rubber strips and plastic washers included.
The downsides are that it’s relatively frustrating to install due to the number of small washers used and the virtually nonexistent clearance under the rack for your hands. I was hoping this would be something I could take off easily to swap in the seat pads for my kids to ride along between grocery trips and deliveries but, honestly, it feels like a semi-permanent addition given the amount of time and effort required to install.
I’d gladly buy another if it had something approaching a quick-release system.
