What's the functional difference between the one with the "crossbeam" and the one with the "hanging bar"? I can't decide between them.

I wondered this myself, but finally figured it out! The "crossbeam" has an additional horizontal bar going across about midway up/down the laundry bags. You can see it in the picture if you look closely. Might make it a little more sturdy? But doesn't seem to worth that extra money IMO. Hope that helps!

If you are using this for a laundry cart the bar serve as a great place to hang blouses and shirts will sorting. Otherwise it makes it easier to push around. If it is only a few dollars different, go for the gusto. Besides, it looks professional with the cross bar. go for it!

My guess is the difference is one has the hanging bar. I didn't have use for the hanging bar so I didn't want it. I use mine to sort clothes before I launder them. I have them labeled "lights", "darks", and "towels". Whenever we take off our dirty clothes, we put them in the appropriately labeled section. Then when I do laundry, I don't have to sort them out. I don't use the cart for clean clothes so I didn't want the hanging bar. I love this cart. It is very sturdy and well-made.

It has a built in bar across the top and a place to attach a rope to hang it up. I used it camping for dishes and washing hands so I didn't hang it up. It worked great for us...I love it!

I use the angled as well, I cant understand what I'd use the other one for.

I don't really know the difference. It's pretty sturdy. It's just have some other issues. Like when moving it to a different spot in my home, some attached parts started getting loose.

Not sure what you mean. You get the bars that need to be screwed to two beams with the right distance between them (your own construction...mine is indoor)

The only difference that I know of is the cover on the 2014 covers the whole clamp, whereas on the 2013 it exposes part of the bar. It's only a cosmetic difference, really. I suppose it keeps your baby's leg from touching a potentially cold bar. If they had had the color I wanted on sale in the 2013 model I would have went for it. Edited to add: I hadn't thought about baby being able to use the bar to stand (my baby is only 7 months and can't reach the bar yet.) In that case it's worth it to get the 2014 unless you intend to buckle them every time.

Two cross bars and brackets. I wasn't too impressed with the rack so I returned it and got a Thule. Custom fit is the way to go.

Doesn't look like much of a difference except for the foot bar (on the $499 one it's not the boxy shape mine is) and it includes a 10" stand (what I assume is another version for the box. I've had mine for over a year and it works great! Good luck!

It is both bars, I've already brought up the discrepancy of the description to Amazon with no results.

Not sure what you are referring to specifically. The bars I see in this picture are part of the car top carrier itself not what I purchased to secure or kayaks. I can tell you that we are very happy with our purchase and it actually holds all three of our boats. Sorry if this is not helpful.

Hi, The middle part (shoulder) which connects left and right parts has not parallel connection surface. It's done especially to keep bars extended outwards. Looks like you connected it wrong way. Just unscrew it and connect it versa (upper bolt should go down), i.e. station bars will extend outwards.

It has two straps that cross each other in an X fashion. You can hang it from the center point where the straps meet.

The crossbars simply clamp down where you put them- there is no designated spot to place them, which is important for me because I have a rooftop cargo box that requires the bars to be slid to where its brackets are. I believe the safety rules are to put the bars as far towards the back as they can go to do the job. The bars are only put in place when you need to carry something up top. Otherwise, you take them off and store them. They have screw-down clamps on each end of the bar, and a "Key" which you use to lock the screw-down handle in place, but the key itself does not release the bar to re-position it.

There are 3 adjustments below the cross bar and I think 3 above. You press in thee button and move it to predrilled holes. The bar is in her home so I can't measure for you.

The one we have is on a full size bed i think they may come in different sizes it is really good the cross beam really dispurses the weight and is very stable

I used the Everlast Wood Beam Heavy Bag Hanger. It is hanging from a wooden crossbeam in the basement. So far so good too. You do have to make sure you get the screws as close to the middle of the beam as possible though so as not to break the wood.Everlast Wood Beam Heavy Bag Hanger
