Got the handirack from Aldi's a few months ago for I think £29.99 but someone on here said they got one there the other day for £19.99. Have never seen the handiholdall anywhere else except the internet. Have to say though that it is a really good piece of kit, so glad that we got ours.

We have the rack and the holdall and are very happy with them.

We can an unbelievable amount of stuff in the holdal and it is waterproof so everything stays dry

The only thing is that if you pack it once it is on the roof, it is hard to get it a decent shape so the first time we used ours it kind of looked like an elephant had sat on it lol

So now we pack it then lift it onto the rack and attach it. It is a little trickier to attach when full but it is doable.

Sorry cant help with retailers as we dont live in the UK but the website is here and maybe you can contact them and see if they have other stockists?

The straps are at the same height as the top of your car door.

It does help if you thread them through the handles above the door if you have them. OH is 6' 2" and he only curses them if his seat is too far forward.

Hope that helps

We found that the straps were not too low, but it also helps if you fold down the sun visor so that hey go behind that a bit.  May not work for all types of car though.  We were also amazed at how much we can get into the holdall.
