Strengths:
Holds two bikes with plenty of space.
Weaknesses:
The holding brackets slip along the pipe while driving, making all of the bikes cram togther. Also since the whole thing weighs a ton, it bounces a lot while driving.
Similar Products Used:
Strap on car racks (all tolerable, but not great.)
Bottom Line:
Go with a hitch rack over any other kind, but do not use this rack.
