i had one in my FJ. not sure of the brand but it was some sort of similar chinglish name. it has loops that go over the 2 tie-downs but is mainly held in place with 2-sided tape. i liked it. i used it mainly for emergency supplies, stranded in a snowstorm stuff. a couple bottles of water, some snacks and emergency blankets. i don't think i'd like it as something that i went in every day. it would be better if it had stiffer sides but it works good for stuff you want to keep in the back and not have rolling around.

Always worth a look, it can always be returned if it is rubbish. I’ve bought lots of storage bits on amazon this year and found some really good (Chinese branded) cheap stuff such as seat back molle panels and some very poor stuff. HuntVP brand is excellent, as is Wynex if you want molle stuff.

I was kinda curious about that storage bag too.

A trunk storage tote / organizer can be a wonderful thing to have. Makes buying groceries a breeze (the contents no longer roll all over).

Just be sure to get one that folds flat for the times you don't want it in the way (or plan ahead and leave it in the garage for those days). Measure the width of the rear area and buy one that long. For fore/aft sliding prevention I put down a strip of carpet faced floor runner from the hardware store, cut to length and use a velcro first aid kit stuck to that, to hold the tote against the seat backs.

I have the same one, same brand! I generally like it since its customized to fit the left-hand side and looks very good/normal. It wouldn't sit correctly on the right-hand side since that one has a dip for a potential FJ subwoofer. But, I wouldn't say it is for heavy duty usage which is disappointing for the price. I say this because the loops that go over the FJ's hooks are rather weak looking and feeling, and the hot climate I live in caused the double-sided tape (for Velcro secure) to detach with the first tilt of the bag while taking a turn. I have a book and first aid kit in it along with other items. The first aid kit is solid steel. My opinion is that even with the contents they advertise it holding, the weight will cause the Velcro glue to detach. However, if you know how to reinforce the loops on it, I bet this thing will last forever. The two loops are its weakest spot. I got rid of the Velcro tape. Odd design where they could have ditched the Velcro and made the loops sturdier.

I have this item as well and like it a lot. I have a flat panel LED work light and a small compressor (the cheap kind for tire inflation) in the rear pocket, and a bunch of tools and a tow strap in the front. It's quite a bit of weight and has held fine so far, about three months. I did take the trouble to wipe down the contact surfaces for the velcro tape with alcohol before sticking.

I ordered a pair of those a few weeks ago; I really like 'em. The velcro that comes with them is not all that great, so I put a strip of 2" heavy duty actual velcro brand velcro about 6" from each end, and so far so good. All they have to do is hold the bottom of the bag still. As far as the cargo area hooks, I put These
over the factory hooks, and the elastic loops on the bags go around them perfectly. I saw them in a guy's video on YT.

Oh wow...blew my first post on this. oops...

Could you that have this organizer post a picture of them? I’d like to see how they look especially with items in them.
