recommend your 4 bike car rack please!

[coolae]

Hi ladies! I am looking for a hitch-mounted, platform-style bike rack to carry 4 bikes on our minivan. I actually had ordered a Yakima last week from etrailer.com, but now they're saying it won't be here until late July. So I'm starting over and getting bogged down in reviews! Any advice would be much appreciated. I'm willing to spend in the $500-600 range.
Thanks!

We have a Yakima but it is not a platform type. I need help to lift it to the hitch because it is about 50 lbs but after that it is easy to use.

We had a hitch installed on our van from u Haul and use the Thule hitch rack. That's the way to go!!!!!!! Highly recommend

Agree the Thules look NICE! They're closer to $1000 😳

We have a Yakima swing away that weighs too much for me to manage on my own. My truck won’t fit in the garage with it installed so I bought a lighter weight Thule rack. It’s just small enough that I can fit it in my garage bay without needin* to remove it.

We have a kuat rack. The base model comes with 2 spots for bikes but you can buy an extension for another 2 bikes. We love ours.

We use Kuat too and it works really well, very sturdy, easy to load and works for thicker tyres. You can remove the add-on when you need just 2 bikes.

We have this cheaper one and it works great! Very sturdy and easy for me to load all five bikes even by myself. Allen Sports Deluxe Locking Quick... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0793CFPPQ...p_mob_ap_share

We got this one last year. I like it because it can be used as 2 or 4, it does t just hang the bikes, and it stores OK. I got it from this retailer. They seem to have plenty of racks in stock and you can get them in June.
