 Just what I expected October 30, 2008
For the amount I paid for this, I wasn't expecting a perfectly crafted high-end bike rack. I have a Toyota Matrix, fitting to the back hatch is a little tricky, but it is perfect for what I need/expected. I would be nervous putting more than 2 bikes on it, the straps seem to loosen up pretty easily (again, not high end), and I find myself tightening them every day (whether we've had bikes on the rack or not). I have had it on my car continuously for 3 weeks now, and it has made toting around my teenager's BMX bike much more pleasant (and the dog appreciates having the back seat to himself!)
Holds the bikes September 25, 2008
No problem with this. It holds up the bikes. But the funny thing is that it comes with a lock and cable so that you can lock the bike to it. But it easily removes from the back of the car (I keep it in the trunk until I need it) so the lock is kind of useless.
 Defective Rack September 14, 2008
I'm using this rack because its not worth the hassle of trying to return it to Target. Perhaps the rack would be worth 5 stars if didn't come with a manufacturer's defect. I had to bend the metal plates open so that they could receieve and lock the arms in place. I still don't have a perfect fit and worry about the arms giving out. So far it is holding one bike up very well but with my next purchase I'll go inspect the rack before purchasing.
Beginner Bike Rack - Fits SUVs August 28, 2008
This is my first bike rack. It was easy to install and holds the bike securely. I was specifically looking for an SUV bike rack, but have no hitch or roof rack. Most of what I looked at cost 2-3 times as much. The only real drawback to the rack is security. Even if the bike is "locked" to the rack, the rack can be easily removed by cutting the canvas straps that hold it to the SUV, allowing the thief to then remove the bike from the rack at his leisure. So if you need to have your bike SECURE, this isn't a good rack. If it's strictly to get from point A to point B, and you can lock it once you're there, this provides good value for the price.

Bell Locking Three-Bike Rack
I have owned and used lots of bike racks and have always viewed the Bell brand as the department store brand. I made a trip from Florida to Michigan and back using this Bell bike-rack. It worked like a charm and did not leave any dents, smudges or damage to the van. The only thing I would like to see different in the rack is for the arms to be adjustable. On this rack the arms lock into one position. The slope of the rear window will dictate the angle of the arms. My van 's window is almost vertical which laves the arms horizontal. You would like to see the arms slightly angled. Nevertheless it worked find. I only carried two bikes a mountain bike and a beach cruiser. Very good quality and for the price it cannot be beat. The cable lock also is a very nice feature.
