Buy Yakima LoadWarrior Rooftop Cargo Basket

Description

Like its big brother, the MegaWarrior, the LoadWarrior rooftop cargo basket is perfect for carrying bikes, skis, boats, luggage, spare tires, shovels, double basses, grandfather clocks, miscellaneous knickknacks and the kitchen sink. It’s just a wee bit smaller so you can’t carry quite as many of them.
Features LoadWarrior rooftop cargo baskets are sized to fit most vehicles (44” x 39” x 6.5”) Custom wind fairing included for extra noise reduction Accessory bars act as crossbars for gear-specific racks like bike/boat/snow/box Weather-resistant heavy-duty steel construction Optional locking bracket (sold separately) secures your basket to your car rack system Universal attachment system fits car rack systems with round, square and most factory crossbars
At Yakima, we believe the outdoors is more fun when shared. The more the merrier. Because the outdoors is not just about the adventure, it’s about the stories told, the inside jokes and the shared memories. Memories that remain, long after the trip is over. It’s been 30 years now, and we not only make safe, secure racks for your gear, what we really do is make room for butts in seats. At Yakima, we’re extremely proud of what we do. Because we’re not just making the world’s finest car racks – we’re getting the gear out of the car and more friends in!

Features

Useful basket
Sean Russell

I attached this to my 2006 Nissan Xterra's existing cross bars. I had no difficulty assembling and mounting it on my own. I did run into one hitch when I found a nut was missing from one of the locking knobs. A trip to the local hardware store for a 1/4" nut solved the problem. Nice basket, fits well on the Xterra.

LoadWarrior a nice rooftop basket
Jason N

The basket was easy to assemble and relatively easy to mount since I was doing it by myself. The basket was great for our trip, very sturdy and held enough luggage to make things much easier.My only real complaint is that the mounting is not as flexible as I'd like and though it says it will fit my vehicle with the factory bars it is right on the edge and really can't be mounted with bars centered in the clamps the way the instructions say it should be, that's why I only gave it 4 stars for the way it mounts on my Honda Element with factory cross bars.The product shipped right on time and was delivered as predicted.

Yakima vs Sportrack basket
Lorgan

I borrowed a friends Sportrack basket and really liked it. When I went to buy one of my own I did some research and liked the ability of the Yakima to attach other Yakima accessories (snow racks, bike racks, etc). I have a few Yakima racks so I went with the Yakima, hoping I'd like it as much as the Sportrack. I really like the Sportrack, but I love the Yakima.A few differences between the two:- The Yakima allows you to attach other bike/snow/boat/etc racks. Any rack that supports round crossbars will work.- The Yakima has a better/easier crossbar attachment mechanism. Its not hard to get either basket on/off, but the Yakima is more sturdy and easier to use.- The Yakima fairing flips down for carrying long stuff like lumber. This was a surprise and one I really like since I buy lumber fairly often.- The sportrack is quieter out of the box. The Yakima fairing rattles a little, but can be fixed with some tape or rubber bumpers.In the end the Yakima with extension was about $15 more than the similar Sportrack, but I think it's worth it if you want the features above.

Easy
J. Restko

I purchased rack to go on my Mini Cooper with Mini brand cross bars. It was very easy to assemble and seems to be very sturdy

Useful, good value, quality control issues
Nikwax

I've just purchased my second LoadWarrior roof basket. The previous one went a long way towards addressing the hideous load bars on the current generation Outback, providing a platform for all kinds of hauling goodness, such as my 16 foot canoe. The new one is sitting on my Volvo C30.I like that the LoadWarrior provides load bars at either end, giving a long, wide platform for loads. Lumber runs, Ikea runs, no problem. Add on canoe clips or other accessories and you have a truly useful system.Quality: my rack arrived with a number of quality issues, such as a missing bolt hole in the fairing, a gouge in the finish, and mysterious white powder covering one half of the rack. None of these amounted to returning the rack, and who knows if a replacement would be any better, but it does indicate that quality control in the Taiwan factory that makes these for Yakima is not as good as it could be.

Love the rack, it does cause a bit of noise
Critical Consumer

This rack was installed on a 2011 OutbackThe rack offers so many options for carrying materials, equipment, bikes and other outdoors needs.The assembly goes together quickly, I installed the extension with it and that took little extra time. I have used it for bikes and hauling building materials will be using it to travel and carry extra cargo.Proslarge capacity, multitude of uses, ease of set up.ConsFairing is loud on the outback due to the way the wind hits it. Over 30 mph will vibrate and it can be obnoxious. I have installed weather stripping behind the fairing to cut down on noise but still there. The fairing just has too much flex if you have a similar car model i would recommend making your own out of a more rigid material.

Great Rack - purchased for 2012 Subaru Outback
SBKaren

We have a 2012 Subaru Outback with factory installed roof racks. They run down the side of the roof top, but you can swing the arms out across the top of the car. We are planning a camping trip in August and wanted to open up some space inside the car since we are traveling with our dog. This rack is very sturdy and it didn't take long for my husband to put it together, and it took even less time to get it up on the car. We took a test drive with the rack on top of the car and never even noticed it was up there. Only time I heard a bit of noise was when I opened the sun roof. But, that said, we can open the sun roof! that was something we questioned. So, it's no problem! It also posses no problem when opening up the back lift door. All-in-all, we are very happy with our purchase.**Modify - we have since been on our camping trip and we were amazed at the amount of gear we could get in this rack. We purchased a bag for our sleeping bags, and it was large enough to put even more gear in. So, on top of our car in this rack we had two sleeping bags, misc. cooking items, camp stove, tent, screened in tent [to put over picnic table], sleeping pad (queen size)/pump and a few other assorted items to fill it up. We were quite impressed with the amount of gear it held. We did hear a slight vibration noise from time to time, but the front park of the rack is adjustable. It didn't happen all the time, so we weren't sure exactly where it was coming from. But all-in-all we were very happy with the purchase. It opened up A LOT of space in the back of our car.We also purchased the webbing that goes with this rack and it was all we needed. No additional tie downs were required at all.

Customer Reviews

Very nice for the $$$.
Drew

I really like these earrings. They are unique enough that they get a few compliments/questions and they are relatively conservative as far as men's earrings go. If I could have done it over, the only thing that I would do differently would be to buy at least the 2ct. size, as opposed to the 1ct. size as they are a little smaller than what one might expect. Other than that, more than fair pricing, quick shipping, good value for the $$$.

Just get the right size
L

Darker, more mysterious, and with interesting reflections, this actually works for all genders. After reading previous comments complaining about size, I selected the 2-carat, and was rewarded with the perfect product: small enough to be discreetly tasteful instead of garish (can be worn as single studs), and large enough to display all the colors properly. All in all, as long as you select the right diameter, this would be a worthy investment.

Pretty!
rok_starr

I got these for my 2nd lobe piercings. I can no longer wear cheap earrings...at least not like I used to. So I got these b/c of the silver posts.I purchased them in the 2ct size. Which is good...any larger and they'd knock against my plugs (11mm). But if you have 2+ lobe piercings at a standard gauge, you won't notice it.These don't have quite the color/spark that the picture has...mine seem duller, more green than anything else. I like the color, though, so I won't complain. But I will knock off a star for the photo not being true to the product.Nice every day earrings!

Nice earrings
Willow

For the price, the earrings are nice, I am used to jewelry coming in little boxes and this was not, so if you are gifting it, you will need to place it in something else...it arrived with one earring post embedded in the other and placed in a black zip lock bag...otherwise, the earrings are very pretty and you won't be disappointed with them...fast shipment..

Brilliant and subtle.
Shibfilet

It's hard to find good jewelery for men that isn't too flashy but just subtle enough to make an impression, and I'd say this design achieves that goal.Besides the underlying black background, green and purple are the colors that reflect the most off of the cubic zirconia.The 2ct size is almost perfect. 1.6ct would have been my first choice, but if life were indeed that perfect then I would only buy jewelery from Hephaestus himself.

beautiful and perfect size.
manofsteel7890

I wear these all the time and they just look great. The color they pick up really depends what color I'm wearing and i have gotten many compliments on these earrings

Color
Jen

These earrings are very pretty! The ones I received are not the color seen in the picture. They are much lighter. They are still very pretty though so I don't mind. I got the 2 carat size and feel like they are a little big for me. That is just a personal preference though. I have received compliments already and am happy with my purchase.

Rainbow Peacock Topaz Square Princess Cut
Nicole

Very pretty earrings. They arent very big but they werent expensive either. I wear them almost everyday, but some days they irritate my ears and they get sort of sore.. If you have really sensitive ears you might not want these incase they would irritate your ears. Other wise they are very nice :)

Great for Packing Lunch
an honest reviewer

I've been using this set for packing lunches, everything from soups, potato salad, regular salads. I just love the very small containers too. I add olive oil and vinegar or any other salad dressing and no leaks!The food stays fresh for a reasonable length of time (I keep mine packed and refrigerated until use)They wash very well, are very easy to store when not in use.I find these American made containers superior to all the other plastic ones I've tried. I do like the Pyrex glass containers, but they're heavier to carry.I'm extremely satisfied and would recommend the Mr. Lid container set in a heartbeat!

containers are too small
da cap10

1st of all let me say these seem to be well made products and I love the attached lids. However I don't know about other people, but when I am storing products or using these containers for lunch there are only 4 of the 10 that will even work. The other 6 are TOO SMALL!! And certainly do not appear in the sample picture! Too bad because as I said they are well made. But 6 are useless to me.

Love these ultra sturdy containers!
C. Bills

I have been using these for a couple months and love the fact that I don't have to be searching for a lid that fits. They wash up fine in the dishwasher. I would highly recommend these. Grab them if you can find them!

I lLip my Lid for Mr Lid
Mule Farm

First- Disclaimer - I am a consumer with no axe to grind or benefit but I saw this on TV and I have order 3 sets already--two thru Prime. My review is simple. I have had them over a year. They stand up to my rough dishwashing and inside my dishwasher when I have room in it. We cook a lot. The reason why I just ordered my 3rd or 4th set ( I can't remember) is I LIKE these things ! I don't have to look for containers to put leftovers in to match lids - a Continual Problem with all those other things in the drawers--I keep putting them in the recycling bin when I run across any ! Eventually I will ONLY have Mr Lids. They "nest" together easily when they are not in use. The only problem I have is I don't have enough of them and I just ordered 10 more. We have a refrig in our main kitchen and one in our "canning" kitchen and we keep the Mr Lids being used ! I have never lost a lid due to it being torn or ripped off....They haven't "stained" and they clean easily. Whoever invented these is a genius and probably very rich and deservedly so. I would give it 6 stars on 5 if I could.

Must have
randi gonzales

For all you Tupperware people and the ones who search not stop for the right lid---well YOU HAVE to get these, this is my second set. LOVE THEM.

misleading
joe

I expected larger containers, the picture is misleading. I would not recommend. These would not hold much of anything like leftovers.

larger and flatter
Bonnie

My one complaint is the size and shape of the containers. They should be larger and flatter for different types of food.

Good but a little pricey
Sue P.

They are a little difficult to open for my elderly Mother. But so nice not scrambling for lids. Wash up well.

Customer Reviews

Tiny & cute but not compatible for all bikes
GracefulGhost

Although this is a nice looking, sturdy basket, the velcro is not long enough for any bicycles with adjustable speed and brake cables running around the front and to the back of the bike. This basket is strictly for single-speed bicycles that have regular sized handlebars to accomodate the short velcro straps.

cute small bicycle basket!
H. Sawada

I read all the reviews before I placed the order. It was cute small basket just as other people mentioned. The dimension ( I measured the interior of the basket.) is Width: 10 inch ( the widest part )/ Depth: 7 inch/ Hight: 6 inch. It is big enough to put 6 oranges, size wise.. I like my basket. The little problems are, 1) the velcro is little bit short for my handles. 2) The basket ( velcro ) comes off from handle when I go over the bump on the street. 3) When I put a small water melon , about 4 Lbs weight, the velcro came down from the handle. This is not for heavy shopping anyway. Still, I am happy because of the look, and it goes with my little folding bicycle look anyway. Since I live in Down Town LA, when I lock my bicycle at a market parking, I always take the basket with me. It is very easy to remove the basket from my bicycle. The price was very good deal as well. I am happy about my purchase.

Ver Cute Basket
Ocean Lady

The basket is well made, looks pretty, and fits my bike perfectly. Size is a little small. If you want to go to farmer's market, this would be too small to hold any produces. I had read the review before I bought it, so it is expected. However it would be nice if they put measurement numbers in the description.

Perfect for a Child's Bicycle
goonius

We bought this basket to attach to a retro-looking 14" Diamondback Della Cruz bicycle for our four year old daughter. When the basket arrived, I initially thought it would be too big for her bicycle. But it turned out to be the perfect size. It is bigger - wider and deeper - than most children's plastic bicycle baskets. This has turned out to be quite a good thing. When my girls go bike riding, my daughter is always pleased to be able to carry the larger stuffed animals or her lunch sack or a huge pile out outdoor treasures (rocks!leaves!magnolia cones!).It's held up really well. I'm ashamed to say we've left the bike out in the rain a few too many times, but the basket - despite a slight change in color - is sturdy as ever!I'm not convinced this would be the ultimate basket for an adult's bike, but that all depends on what you're wanting to tote along. You could carry a small purse in here, or maybe a few (2-4) library books, or a small Sigg bottle and a paper lunch sack. But it's definitely not good for a trip to the grocery store or anything.For our purposes, however, it was absolutely ideal. It's also easy to attach which is nice. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a smaller basket for an old-fashioned single-speed bicycle.Country of Origin: China

Fits my 5-speed bike.
Allison

Before buying i wanted to check out the reviews and most consisted of its too small or it can only fit one speed bikes. I placed the order anyway and took a chance. It's actually not that small i can fit a towel and all my swimming stuff for when i ride down to my pool. It fits on my 5-speed mountain bike. I just had to maneuver the straps through my brakes. its durable and hardly moves when I'm riding. I live in a neighborhood with literally no cracks in the sidewalk so that might be a factor. it looks great and i would recommend this product to anyone looking to buy a bike basket for a low price(:

Good Buy for the Money
zelmo

I bought this for my college-bound daughter's new bike. When I showed her the online picture, she thought it would be too small, but upon arrival, she was pleasantly surprised to find it large enough to hold many more things than she expected. It's a great size for her bike, and since she wanted an old fashioned look to go with her retro bike, this was perfect. She really likes the quick-release velcro and handle in case she wants to lug it with her shopping or to class. I can't speak to the durability of it yet, she's only had a month, but at $9.99, I can buy another one or two and not break the bank. Overall, I give it a B+ to A-

Great Bike Basket
Darla Wylie

I bought this basket on a Friday and I had it by Monday. I love this basket, it is not big, but I like it because it fits my water, garage door opener, cell phone, wallet or whatever I might need for my ride. Love it!

Broken before first use
Maricky

My daughter was so excited for this to hang it off of her new bike. The straps broke when we put it on and we have not been able to use it.

This is what I was looking for. Solid quality for an affordable price. These will hang from a rod in the shower for individual storage.

Exactly what the description says
jtgreen1310

Pros:-Sturdy base-Great height-LightCons:-WidthThis is great if you are in a dorm with a community shower or if you have hard water deposits.For instance my shower tends to have harder water deposits than normal, so if I leave my shower stuff tends to accumulate dirt and such if I leave them sitting there. This shower tote is a perfect solution to this.

Great
Katarina

I'm using it as my shower caddy and it works amazing, it can hold like 4 shampoo bottles and more space is left for soap and scrubs all at once.

Cute storage box
Leonard Martin Solomon

Actually, we don't store much in it. We keep it behind the passenger seat in our family jalopy and use it for trash (crumpled tissues, broken toothpicks, banana peels and the like). It's not huge, so we need to empty it each time we fill up the tank. We had one just like it, but somehow or other I lost it and my wife was disappointed. Needless to say, when I spotted a duplicate on Amazon.com I was ecstatic. Now my wife is once again a happy camper each time she discards a tissue.

Cat toy box
Virginia Lordan

Bought this to throw cat toys into. It is nice and small and light and helps keep these off the floor (where I used to step on them).

perfect for what I planned it for
S. Roach

I go to the gym before work and was looking for a small basket to carry my shower items in. This works great for full size shampoos, conditioners.. I add soap, razor, facial cleanser, etc. Good size and easy to carry around.

Customer Reviews

This is fast and easy to use and we found it easy to clean!
jjceo

This is a very nice garlic press. It is made of stainless steel and we found it very easy to use and to clean. In my video I press a garlic clove that has been peeled and one that has not been peeled. The results were amazing and the one that was not peeled was minced just as quickly and thoroughly as the one that was. (Please see the video.)The press does require you to at least start the crushing process using two hands as the handles of the press are quite far away. After you are partially done pressing the garlic you can use one hand. The ergonomic handles were comfortable and easy to use.Press is strongly built and the flip out basket made it easy to rinse out the press. After pressing the garlic 90%+ of the cleanup was done by simply rinsing the press in warm water for a few seconds. I gave it two swipes with a brush and it was as clean as new. This unit is dish washer safe and of course we will always clean it with hot soapy water or in the dish washer. I just did the quick rinse to see how hard it was to clean it up.This is a good product and I rated it at 5 stars.I was supplied a sample for test and evaluation and I promised to provide a fair and honest review.

Great garlic press
Benjamin M. Davis

This is a great kitchen tool. I used to chop garlic by hand, but found it time consuming and ended up with uneven sizes, that cooked unevenly. I have tried smashing the garlic, but that's even more uneven. I had a prior garlic press, which did a great job of quickly and easily producing a nice uniform output. However, after a couple of weeks of use, I noticed that the aluminum-like finish was peeling off, revealing a black body construction. Since whatever mystery metal ( some bottom of the line pot metal) this was made of was leeching into my food, I looked for a stainless steel replacement. As I had some time on my hands, I read a lot of reviews here, on CR, as well as Cooks Illustrated reviews. What I found was that many of the highly rated presses are new generation versions of old favorites. Many individual reviewers complained that the new version of what they had previously used and loved were cheaply built, and most suffered from the problem I described above - a rapidly lost veneer over a mystery metal construction. As this was precisely what I was trying to get away from, I avoided the highly rated big brand names, and looked more closely at customer reviews, focussing on stainless steel models only.I settled on this one for its clean lines, solid SS construction, simple design, and high ratings. And I am very pleased with the result - it works great, does not pinch the hand, is reasonably easy to clean, and feels good in the hand. For those who complain of wasted garlic, let's be reasonable - you lose maybe 5% of a clove by using a press - any press. That's insignificant, and is the price of the convenience. The only improvement I could suggest would be to incorporate a swing around plastic piece to mate with the press holes and press the skin and debris back out. Otherwise, this is as good as it gets.

Propresser vs. Priority Chef vs Garlic Twist: Three Outstanding Garlic Mincers!
RWM

*****I'm a garlic nut. I put garlic on everything, because it's good and good for you. I've come across three garlic presses that impress. They are the Propresser Stainless Steel Garlic Press, the Priority Chef Stainless Steel Garlic Press, and the Clear Garlic Twist. Both products are excellent, with different attributes.The Propresser Stainless Steel Garlic Press (Garlic Press Stainless Steel - Get Perfectly Minced Garlic By Pressing the Whole Garlic Clove Using the Best Garlic Press - Go Without Garlic Peeler or Garlic Chopper - Premium Quality Garlic Crusher - Make a Miscellany of Garlic Recipes with This Garli...)This is the first garlic press I've come across that lets you mince unpeeled garlic cloves. When I make minced garlic, I make it in large batches and put it into small glass containers, one of which I keep handy in the fridge, and the others I freeze. The problem with this is peeling all of those cloves, which seems to take forever. So, when I learned of this product, and noticed that it claimed to be able to mince unpeeled garlic cloves, I had to try it.This is a heavy duty, quality product. It's stainless steel, so it won't rust. I like its heft and feel and its sleek appearance. But I was most impressed with the fact that I can mince garlic without peeling the cloves. I doubted that it would work, but I tried it on both peeled cloves and unpeeled cloves and concluded that this press really works well on unpeeled cloves.I can put one VERY LARGE garlic clove in the Propresser at a time.Cleaning is not a big deal.Read more ›

Sturdy and Easy to Clean
Tony

I am a personal chef, and therefore, I spend a lot of time in the kitchen. I was looking for a garlic press that could handle a lot of work. This press is very heavy duty and made of very sturdy material. It is also super easy to clean which is a huge blessing and makes my life much easier. I am so happy to finally have a garlic press that will last!

The caddies are PVC free and the dyes used in the textiles are entirely formaldehyde-free. Any wood stain that is used on a SaraBear basket is water-based and lead-free. The packaging was deliberately designed without the use of plastics. At a moment's notice or a baby's cry, take everything you need to care for baby from one room to the next.

Features

• Large compartment holds baby wipes container in place

LOVE IT.... BUT $10 LESS AT TARGET!!
Jacqueline Hauser

This caddy is wonderful. It truly meets all my needs and then some. My only complaint is with Amazon - I come to Amazon with almost all of my baby buying needs (well, all of my buying needs if possible) because I feel they will undoubtedly have the best price around. Lately this has not been the case. I was seconds away from purchasing this caddy a few weeks back when I randomly remembered seeing it in Target. At the time I thought Target was trying to rip me off with a price tag of $29.99. I remember thinking, "Amazon will have a better deal." HA! So glad I went back to Target a few nights ago and purchased this there. They have both styles of the caddy in stock at my local Target. As I stated before, the caddy is exceptional. I have have purchased 3 caddies over the last few years between two kids and this one is my absolute favorite. I highly highly recommend purchasing one. The design is absolutely precious, can be used for either sex, and really has a pocket or space designated for anything you can possibly think of when it comes to baby needs. I can fit all of my son's diaper needs (diapers, wipes, buttpaste, changing pad, etc) as well as his bath needs and a few miscellaneous items such as a thermometer, nail clippers, etc. I love this thing! And after I no longer have a need for it as my son gets older I imagine I can easily transition this into a toiletries container for my own personal use. Seriously, if you are looking for a diaper caddy look no further. Just check your local Target for one $10 cheaper!!

Love this caddy

This is my second Sarabear portable diaper caddy. I initally lived in a one-story home and had a different pattern but found the caddy to be indispensable on the diaper changer. It is sturdy and the pockets are great for organizing the essentials. I bought the white waffle one once we moved to a two-story home, as I found I desperately needed one downstairs as well. I looked at other options in store when I couldn't find Sarabear at buybuybaby or babies-r-us (where I initially purchased). The other ones were cheap, small, and ugly. This thing is large but in a good, holds everything way. Not for travelling or anything so I wouldn't want something smaller where I was jamming things in or having to restock the diapers every day. My ONLY complaint and I still give it 5 stars even so because I love it so much is that the wicker on the bottom can scratch delicate surfaces. We have one on the chocolate dresser/changer top and found it was scratching the finish. We solved this by setting the caddy on top of a clean cloth diaper that was left over from part of a baby shower game. Another option would be to rest it on top of a plastic changer pad (we used them even over the regular changer foam pads since there were so many poop smears on the fabric changers that we got sick of washing them every day)Next kid will buy another for their room if my daughter isn't potty trained by then.

Great organizer for wiggly babies!

I love just about everything about this organizer. It's cute, functional, and makes diaper changing a snap with my son aka the wiggle worm. When it's time to change, I just grab the caddy and I have everything I need right at my fingertips. It really takes the hassle out of the whole process. I can bring the whole thing down from his room to his play area during the day so we don't have a huge interruption when it's time to change.Holds about a dozen size 4 dipes and a box of wipes sits snugly in the middle. The other pockets are great for as-needed items like powder, rash cream, hair brush, and I keep a rolled up changing pad in there in case of #2 or if I need the protection from a cold/hard floor.The only slight flaw in the design is that the bottom has exposed nail heads which could scratch delicate surfaces. I had the same problem with a previous basket. I put a cloth diaper underneath it where it lives on top of the dresser, or you could use a table runner, or keep it on the floor if you don't have a curious baby who would get into it.

Essential for your changing table

My wife wasn't registered for this item at her shower but what a great surprise it was to receive. I'm not sure what we would've used to organize all the items we keep in it. The quality of the basket and liner is superb.The basket is located right next to our son's changing pad and has-A + D Ointment-Aquaphor-Baby Wipes-Lotion-Miscellaneous creams-Brush-Diaper garbage bagsPlease view the customer image.

So handy!

I love this caddy! It is so handy that I have 2 of them.... 1 in the nursery and 1 in the family room next to the pack-n-play where my baby girl naps and hangs out. It's the perfect size and fits all the baby essentials - diapers, wipes, Boogie Wipes, butt cream, lotion, nail clippers, thermometer, rattle, etc. Bonus points to Munchkin for making this basket pleasing to the eye so it fits right in to any room.

Good, but small
Mennorose

Wish there was something larger I could put all my cloth diapers in, but I can't fine anything out there. This works well to hold wipes and creams and some diaper covers.

Great mommy tool.

I love this caddy. It keeps everything I need in one place, I can drag it all over my house so I don't have to run back to the changing table, but I can have it in the room where we're spending a chunk of time. I also love that the center part holds a full size wipes carrier. I have even bought this as a gift for people!
