Reviewed by dani from Alaska on Wednesday, May 08, 2013This whole system was much, much floppier than expected. The only real way any part of it can stand up on it's own is if it's completely full (and probably with something that helps it stay square. I expected the cubes to be actual cubes, that had some stiffness in them, so you could throw things in them & take it out and they'd stay standing/open, etc. But it's just basic woven fabric, even the outer bag--so if you take a cube out, the outer bag will collapse a bit into that spot (so you'll need two hands to get it back in). I'll make it work for my trunk but it will take a lot of cardboard and wire to get it to work the way I wanted. What I wanted was an organizing system for my car, where I could keep things (such as gear, groceries, packages, dirty outerwear, raingear), or have room to throw things, as needed. With them all floppy then it would only work when they are full... which doesn't really help. So, I'm not sending it back, but I'm surprised at Mountainsmith that they designed something that isn't all that cool. I know other people mentioned that they were floppy but I didn't think it would be THIS floppy!! I'm glad I got it with an extra 35% off coupon, otherwise it probably would be going back.

Reviewed by sarah from seattle on Friday, May 03, 2013The only reason for just 4 stars is the same thing other reviewers mentioned - it would help if the grey carrier would even somewhat stand up on it's own. I have wanted one for years, so glad I finally bought it. Even though I measured, It is still a bit large for the back of my car, a Honda Fit. I wanted it on to take up just one side, so it is a bit tight behind the back seats. Great organization and the back of my car doesn't look like a junk closet!

Reviewed by uberchik from ravena, ny on Wednesday, May 01, 2013We have not used it for travel yet, but it is well built and the compartments are a decent size. Large enough to hold things, but not too large that they will become too heavy or impractical. We are contemplating purchasing the larger version of this as well and think it would make a great gift!

Reviewed by Dan from Washington on Friday, April 19, 2013The modular hauler is perfect when you have a baby and travel by car. I am giving it a 4 instead of 5 as they should have thrown in a shoulder strap to make this thing perfect.

Reviewed by Colorado Girl from Fort Collins, Colorado on Thursday, April 04, 2013This is a great product! I always love Mountainsmith products- the utmost in quality and materials. I live in a remote location and travel to town for supplies and groceries- this is a great bag to toss in the back of my car as a container for my stuff. The smaller bags can be removed and the larger "tote" has many purposes. Great product.

Ask a Question-
Question “Can this bag be checked on an airplane? It looks like the 3 compartments would fall out.”
-
Answer I would not recommend checking the Modular hauler on an airplane. The compartments could/would probably fall out.
-
-
Question “what are the cubicle dimensions?”
-
Answer Size: 15x15x7-½" ( each cube)
-
-
Question “Are these insulated? I want to use it for packing up food for a road trip with ice packs in it. Would it work for that?”
-
Answer The Mountainsmith Modular Hauler 3 is not insulated. It's made of nylon, so it wouldn't keep the cold in by adding ice packs, and would likely start to sweat on the outside of the bag.
-
Answer Not insulated.
-
-
Question “Could you use this as checked luggage on a plane if you linked the modular units to the carrying bag?”
-
Answer I do not believe they would allow this as check luggage since it is an open top. You would have to check with the airline.
-
-
Question “Does this model have the modular units with foam sides so they stand alone?”
-
Answer The hauler has piping for free-standing access, but the modular units only have cross panel webbing for added stability. They will stand on their own though.
-
Answer No; mine collapse almost flat and are unlined.
-
Answer No, the modular units do not stand alone.|Maybe once they are full, they might.|But, they are too flexible and soft to stand.
-
Answer No foam sides. That would be nice.
-
Answer There isn't any foam on the sides of the Mountainsmith modular Hauler but the modules fit well in their carrier by using straps to compress the modules. The modules have a see through top and also a storage slot to keep a storage inventory list or whatever.
-
Answer The cubes aren't standalone. They fold flat. In order for them to fill up the space allotted in the hauler, they need to have something in them.
-
Answer They don't have rigid foam sides. It isn't a problem if you stuff the individual bags full- The outer bag has no foam sides either-
-
Answer No they don't stand alone.
-
-
Question “Is this bag completly waterproof?”
-
Answer This bag is water resistant but not water proof.
-
Answer pretty much but i wouldnt take it on a raft in class five water
