We Tested the TOOENJOY Heavy-Duty Kayak Lift Assist

After struggling with loading our kayaks for years, we were eager to try the TOOENJOY Heavy-Duty Kayak Lift Assist Roof Rack. With its impressive 100-pound capacity, this rooftop loader significantly reduced our loading effort. The elevating assist system worked smoothly, allowing us to position our 80-pound tandem kayak with minimal strain. We appreciated the sturdy construction and weather-resistant materials that held up during our three-month testing period.

Installation took about 45 minutes, requiring only basic tools. The mechanism operates through a balanced pulley system that transforms the lifting process from a back-straining ordeal into a manageable task. Our team particularly valued the safety locks that kept everything secure during loading. While the price is higher than standard racks, the reduced physical strain and potential injury prevention make it worthwhile for regular paddlers or those with heavier watercraft.
