Allen Deluxe 4-Bike Hitch Mount Rack (2-Inch Receiver) Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It was really easy to put together and use. It was well packed - it emerged unscathed from a very scathed box. The steel seems thin until you relaize that it is just carrying bikes, not a trailor. It is strong enough and doesn't weigh a ton.
However... It comes in three main pieces that you bolt together. The resulting rack does exactly what it is supposed to. And it is solid. That's almost enough. The problem is that a thief must remove, at most, two bolts to steal your bikes. I used some Locktite on the bolts and cured that little failing. Now the bolts can't come out and the rack is about perfect.

This Deluxe Hitch Mounted Bike Carrier by Allen holds four bikes and is ideal for weekend biking trips with friends and family outings. A tie-down system securely holds and protects each bicycle while 22-inch carry arms drop out of the way when not in use. Appropriate for two-inch hitches, this carrier includes a strap which eliminates lower bike movement. Minor assembly and simple set up of the carrier is required.
About Allen Bike Racks In 1967, after a few years of working on the aerospace technology for the Apollo missions, Dick Allen was out of a job. Government cutbacks led Allen, a Harvard-trained physicist, to transform his garage hobby into a new industry. A cycling enthusiast, inventor, and family man, Allen had a personal need for a bike-carrying device. On weekends, he would take his sons and wife to Cape Cod or the White Mountains of New Hampshire. What proved difficult time and again was the transport of his family’s bicycles. Rather than fight through inconvenience with twine and a dinged car, Allen sought an answer for himself as well as a market in which he foresaw major growth possibilities.
Always a pathfinder, Allen took to work in his Lincoln, Massachusetts garage in search of a more efficient way to transport bikes. Drafting designs during the day and constructing them throughout the night, he put together a model made of electrical conduit, metal strapping, and fire hose casings (for padding). At first, the Allens tested the prototype on weekend excursions. Finding the first trunk-mounted rack to be a success, Dick started Allen Bike Racks. Dealer acceptance came quickly, and by 1971 Allen Bike Racks were sold nationally through a number of major bicycle distributors. Today, the company owns over three dozen patents and offers a versatile product line of bike racks while Dick’s son Alex now owns and operates the business. What started out as a small garage run operation now operates three warehouses nationally, two factories abroad, and has products sold in more than a dozen countries around the world.

Coleman Propane Grill Stove Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After being disappointed with the taste and troubles associated with using a campfire to grill burgers and hotdogs, I bought this Coleman Grill/Stove combo about two years ago.
It has been an instant hit on every outing. The compact size allows for easy packing. Two 1-lb. propane tanks last me all weekend. I've even used this unit at home when my patio propane grill ran out of gas.
For breakfast, I use the griddle attachment for pancakes, sausage, eggs and bacon, while the stove keeps the coffee hot. The griddle has two small drain holes at the left edge. You need to make sure the unit sits level or slightly downhill toward these holes so that the grease will make its way to the drip tray. However, when I cook for a large group, I find that the drip tray fills up quickly when cooking bacon, and it's not easy to handle when the grease is still hot. For lunches, I've cooked six hamburger patties at a time on the grill surface, although I must say you get some impressive grease flares and will have a dirty grill when you're done. About six hot dogs can be cooked at once with no problem, but I always have to make sure they're turned frequently and keep the burner on a low setting to avoid burning the dogs. For dinner, chicken breasts and steaks under 1" thick cook up just fine while a 10" skillet on the stove warms up pasta, chili, or whatever sounds good.
If I had to find any downside it would be that the flame can be blown out by a good wind when on the lowest heat setting. Also when on a low setting, the flame is dim and very hard to verify if it is on in daylight conditions.
My recommendations:
Buy the version with electronic ignition if you don't like fiddling with matches.
Use only nylon utensils to keep the non-stick surfaces free of scratches.
Put a couple layers of aluminum foil under the grill surface for easier clean up, and be sure to punch out a little hole for the grease to drain into the drip tray.
Consider Coleman's fold-away aluminum stove stand for this unit. It brings the grill to the ideal height and is quite stable (the feet even have holes for tent stakes).
You can keep a stock pot of water simmering on the stove while you use the grill side to have warm dish water after your meal.
When it's time to head for home, always pack the unit flat. If you store it upright (on it's side), stray grease will eventually leak out and make a mess of things. Once back at home, you can dismantle the grill and use a garden hose along with a sponge and some dish soap to quickly clean the Grill Stove for storage until the next campout.

Allen Deluxe 4-Bike Hitch Mount Rack (1.25-Inch Receiver) Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It's a nice strong unit, albeit a little more akward to use than some carriers. The thing that disappointed me most, though, was the need to use a tie-back strap at the top of the carrier.
If you look carefully at the first picture, you can see a thin line going from top of the carrier back to the car. The instructions say to "Hook metal hook at the end of the top strap to a solid metal edge at the top edge of rear door/trunk."
This seems to provide a strong opportunity for scratching the car, since the painted surface of the car is now being used as a structural element by attaching a "hook" to the edge of the trunk.
Otherwise, it seems ok.

Coleman Camper's Storage Tote Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My husband and I bought this as a way to keep all our camping cooking stuff together. His two burner Coleman stove fits perfectly in the bottom pocket and the top pocket holds just about everything we need (dishes, pots/pans, dishtowels etc.) There really is a lot of space. There are elastic pockets on the inside that hold propane bottles, utensils etc.
Now the part we don't like. There is no support on in this bag. We thought this would be like the collapsible coolers, where the sides would have some sort of padding to help hold the shape. There is no support. If we don't fill it completely full, everything just slides all over the place.
We are happy with it overall and will be using it, but thought it could have a much better design.

Adams Original Folder 24" Shifter 7sp Trail-A-Bike 24" 7 speed Pewter Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Before buying this product I was concerned that 24" is rather large for a trail-a-bike. But it turned out to be excellent for a 7 to 8-year old child. The seat can be adjusted to accommodate younger or older kids. My son really enjoys the 7-speed which helps a lot when we climb a hill. In many ways he likes it better than his own bike because we can travel long distances in the nearby state park, and go much faster. Like all trail-a-bikes, there is a bit of wobbling when your child tilts it from one side to another. But in time both you and your child get better at it, and stop wobbling.
The bike is nicely built and is easy to assemble. We don't use the folder at all but it is good to know that you have the option. So, yes, this bike is fairly expensive. But I think it is definitely worth the price.

Allen Deluxe Swing Away 4-Bike Hitch Mount Rack (2-Inch Receiver) Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The 740RR (MSRP: $400) is a swing-away hitch-mount bike carrier that permits access to the rear of a vehicle without first dismounting the rack or its load of bikes, a convenience that you'll wonder how you ever got along without. The 740RR folding design is unique from other competing swing-away bike carriers, admittedly very cool to see in action though it provides no obvious advantages. An animated video of the 740RR movement is available on the manufacturer's website.
However, the 740RR seems to suffer from a few design flaws that quickly become apparent during typical use, raise concerns about the product's safety, and may eventually render the rack unusable. My observations after using the 740RR:
1) Unnecessarily complicated swing-arm.
The 740RR folding swing-arm requires more component hardware and pivot points than competing single-hinge swing-away carriers. More pivot points mean over a half-dozen lubrication spots, more mechanical points of failure, and several exposed and potentially serious pinch hazards.
2) Swing-arm flex.
The 740RR swing-arm flexes considerably when it is swung out from the vehicle under a full load of bikes. The flex can cause permanent misalignment of the locking mechanisms that hold the rack safely closed. When this happens, the 740RR is unusable.
3) Poorly designed locking and safety mechanism.
The locking mechanism is the most significant problem with the rack. The 740RR clicks closed by use of a spring-pin. However, this pin does not secure the carrier to the vehicle. Instead, the owner must subsequently hand-tighten an ordinary threaded bolt before the rack is safe for transport. Forget to tighten that bolt and the carrier will swing away from the rear of the vehicle at the first bump regardless if the rack is empty or carrying bikes, an unnerving thing to experience.
Note that securing the rack with a threaded bolt appears to be a typical safety feature of most swing-away bike carriers. However, the 740RR's implementation seems poorly applied:
- The long threaded bolt must be tightened from the front of the swing-arm, access to which is difficult and awkward when the rack is loaded with bicycles;
- The bolt threads become stripped under normal use and eventually can no longer be tightened, making the rack unusable;
- Neither the spring-pin or the bolt will engage if the swing-arm is misaligned, again rendering the rack unusable.
4) Significant weight.
The 740RR is heavy and cumbersome to attach/remove from the receiver hitch, and awkward and bulky to move when detached. The carrier does not stand up on its own when not mounted. As an alternative to hefting the thing up onto wall hooks, the manufacturer sells a stand which allows upright storage of the 740RR.
5) Instructions contain errors.
The 740RR design has apparently changed since the instructions were last updated. A few images do not match actual rack components, and some parts are mislabeled.
Great Warranty.
The manufacturer warrants their products as such: "If one of our products fails to function properly due to defect in materials or workmanship over the lifetime of the original purchaser, return the product and we will repair it or replace it free of charge." Indeed, to my satisfaction, the manufacturer replaced my first problematic 740RR (on which this review is based) without any hassle and free of charge including shipping. The replacement rack has lasted longer than its predecessor, but the threaded bolt again shows signs of eminent failure.
Buying a Used 740RR.
It is probably a very bad idea to purchase the 740RR used. The original owner may be unburdening themselves of a rack afflicted with one of the many inherent problems I mentioned above. Also, you would loose the protection of the manufacturer's warranty.

KL Industries Water Quest Basstendert Fishing Boat (10.2-Feet) Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great little boat for small areas, such as a small lake or river. I use it on a small river in central Florida. I power it with a 40lb. thrust trolling motor, and it moves it very good. They are trying to eliminate combustion engines on this river so this unit works great. I put the trolling motor on the front so I can see the areas I want to fish easier. It does "skid" a little like this when I am alone, but when two people are in the boat the control is much better. It has a small livewell, which is perfect for the panfish I catch. The rod holders are nice and use the navigation lite holder for another rod holder since I don't go out at night. The seats are comfortable, and there is adequate room for the gear I take. You can't stand as easily in a bigger boat, but you have to consider the cost. I think I have $1500 total including boat, motor, battery, etc. I use a utility trailer to haul it, but I think it will fit into a pick-up truck.

2 Bike Carrier - Rear 2" Hitch Bicycle Rack Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The bike rack will carry a couple of bikes but the quality is pretty poor. Very cheaply made, very bad 'paint' that flakes off when you tighten any of the bolts. Rusts instantly (Really!!!) Some of the bolt holes do not hold the bolts properly for tightening, so you will probably need a vice-grips for assembly.
You will need to add padding to the vertical posts that you fasten the bikes to unless you don't mind scratching up your bikes.
Figure on a can of gloss black spray enamel to touch up anywhere a tool touches and padding for the uprights and you will have a functional bike rack. Takes about 30 minutes to assemble if you work reasonably fast.

(More customer reviews)I tried a friend's very similar to this. Also bought a different type that uses the rubber straps for securing. I prefer these plates that screw down. Also, my friend's bolts are shorter, so with bikes with fat bars, you had to use an adapter. Still have to use adapter for one 24" bike, but the 26" bike has enough clearance between bars to slide the bottom plate through. Just wish it would swing down for easier access to liftgate.

Heavy Duty 4 Bicycle Bike 2" Hitch Rack SUV Car Truck Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I use this unit mostly to make only about a 20 mile trek to our favorite riding area. The unit itself is sturdy enough but has several flaws. The most glaring is that the bike mounts seem to me to be about 2-4" closer together than I think would be optimal. This results in a jigsaw puzzle when loading 4 bikes on the unit (if you can do it with your bikes at all). It took me about 20-30 minutes to load it up with 2 adult bikes and 2 kids bikes the first time. During the trip, the bikes were held steady (make sure to use the yellow nylon strap and not rely on the velcro straps to hold your bikes!)but when we arrived I had a heck of a time getting 2 of the bikes off. the pedals/cranks had gotten crossed up and I had to remove both bikes at once to get them off the rack. Then I had to figure out how to get the cranks unstuck. It was a pain and would likely not have happened had there been additional space between the bikes. I ended up throwing one of the kids bikes INTO the SUV for the trip back.
Also, in hindsight, I wish I had sprung for a few extra bucks for the more expensive "pivot away" type units that would allow me to open up the SUV hatch when necessary without removing the unit from the hitch.
A good basic carrier, but stick with 2 bikes and dont bother trying 4.
