Worth the money!Jul 10, 2011
By OregonBay To start off with, you need to know that this basket is designed to work with TOPEAKs' brand of bike racks. Like anything else for bikes it's pretty much universal, so you could use it on another bike rack, but it's made for their own specially designed version to work best. If you don't have a rack yet, the TOPEAK Explorer MTX Rack is a good choice to go along with this basket.
The folding basket has a ramp that slides into a channel on the bike rack and locks into place with a quick locking system. It's a pretty slick system, and makes for an exact fit, placement, and it's super fast to attach/detach. There are NO worries about the basket or other accessories sliding around with this system.
Overall the basket seems to be pretty durable for a lightweight basket, and the fact that it conveniently folds down for travel and storage when not in use is an extremely nice feature not found in other baskets. You need to know that this basket is designed to carry items up to 19.8 pounds, I suspect if you overload it like you would a milk crate that it would not hold up very long.
The handle/rolling feature is also very nice, and not found in other baskets.
I'll just do a brief overview of PROs and CONs for review:
PROs
Attaching system/Locking system Folds for travel/storage Lightweight Durable Rolling system
CONs
May not hold up to heavy usage over a long period of time Rattles during travel (not a big issue for me) Only comes in the grey color
Overall - This is an awesome product, the only real complaint for me (and minor at that) is that it doesn't come in Black, which I think would look a lot better on my bike. But it does look good on my bike since it is grey anyway, so I'm probably just nit-picking here. This is a great basket for light shopping or carrying any items around 20 pounds.

Perfect for going to the farmer's marketDec 19, 2010
By Sarah D.

So far this has worked PERFECTLY for me. I go to the farmer's market, pop this basket off, wheel it around and fill it up with delicious foods. Then strap the bungee net on top (you probably do want that to go with this!), and head home. It does feel kind of flimsy, and it rattles a ton. But so far, so good!

WorthlessDec 23, 2010
By TeacherMac No quality control here!
Perfect as a toy for kids up to 9 for their schoolbooks if they use as a trolley and never on a bike! (it may last a few weeks longer!))
Everything shatters from road vibrations and there are is no place to get parts replacement.
Total junk and the company has yet to respond to the quality of the garbage I was sent (3 units all defective)
Milk crate and bungee cords from now on!
Extremely disappointed!

Well constructed, works great!Oct 23, 2010
By J. Austin This product does exactly what it says it will do. I use it to go grocery shopping. It slides on and off the Topeak bike rack beautifully. I have to be a little careful not to overload it, as it makes my bike seem a little harder to balance, but that's not the fault of the product. I would recommend this product.

The family that rides togetherNov 29, 2010
By Jaycal This is a fantastic bike basket for carrying around relatively larger loads. I purchased this bike basket for my wife, who neeeded something more than the wire mesh 'shopping basket' I have for my own bike. The folding/unfolding procedure only took a few minutes to master and now my wife uses it for carrying materials for Girl Scout meetings, swim gear, work materials, etc. and can wheel it around when she's off her bike.
Since we went with the Topeak system, we now have the added benefit of choosing which basket we want to use, or just the spring-loaded bike-rack they integrate with. HIGHLY recommended.
