Buffalo, you are correct, it is designed to open from the rear of the vehicle and done in a way so that any of the three sides made be opened to prevent what's already in there from falling out. From your description it sounds as if you want it to open at the front of the vehicle instead? Still taking feedback from existing MIXP (pocket net) purchasers....

I'm glad I placed an order for this product last night.
Question for the people that have them already, what have you guys got stuffed in them? I'm planning on putting jumper cables and some miscellaneous bungees and hold down straps in there. I think Eddie said something like 20# weight limit so I sould be fine, right?

Sorry eddie I would like it to only open from one side that side being the back or once its mounted the side closest to the rear hatch, do you have plans for this or does it depend on the feedback you get from the ones you have already sold.

Pinoy - I just have 2 windbreakers, 2 winter hats, and some gloves up there. However, what you are talking about putting up there sounds like it should fit fine.

So, just the center of the back to open? I don't see the advantage to this, (simply do not open the sides?) would limit the size of items that would fit in it I would venture. On the other hand, I am finalizing the feedback as you mentioned above, anyone else would desire this variation? One could simply sew the two outer side shut I suppose..... maybe I am missing something on this idea. confused

[QB]This is very similiar to the smaller internal XNET we have had, except is made out of a much tighter mesh and a heavy seam of Velcro to form a pocket to tuck just about anything that will fit in it out of eye level. Still has the heavy duty fastening rings (but in Stainless steel) and the military style cam buckles. Feedback and comments are welcome. If anyone gets asked, we just are launching two Pathfinder nets as well today and fitting the Armada.

Great a new product to store my wifes purse and a bra.

All I'm saying is this: if I'm going to purchase a product in this case an accessory for my Xterra is going to be something thats verry useful, and in order for me have an interest
on a certain product I would like to see the product in action, something that's going to make sence, and to be honest spending 80 bucks on a product that the purpose I see is to hold a purse I rather have My wife hold her own purse.
(to make mt story short, Advertising is the key to success.)

Yes you did get before the price increase to retail. Should be Fed Ex. Send me an email if you don't have the tracking by Wed. night. Should auto send to your supplied email.

Ordered mine yesterday, hope you guys still honor the special price as advertised since it had not been changed on the website. I can't wait to put it to use.

Regardless... looks really nice Eddie. I'll be calling to place an order in a few minutes.

Received mine today and installed it! As always, it's excellent quality and fits well. It will hold a raincoat or two (depending on size), a couple hats, and a few other small items that would otherwise clutter up the cargo area. What I found too is that there's enough space above it that if you have a large blanket or such you can put it on top of the net and cinch the straps up to hold it. THat's what I did with my blanket.

Here are a couple pictures...

I've had mine installed for a little over a week now and here is my feedback. Keep in mind that I had the previous x mini net before this one.
Pros: Much larger than mini x net
Can store very small items

Cons: prefer metal buckles on mini x-net,
much easier to cinch tight
buckles seem like they will fatigue/crack over time.
sagging in the midle is much lower in the middle than with the mini xnet (keep in mind that I currently have a small pair of binoculars and 2 handheld radios in the pocket)

Overall I think this net is an improvement over the mini xnet but I would have liked the metal buckles with the full size straps instead of plastic buckles with narrower straps. imo
