I've used 2 cheap trunk bags. The first was https://www.ebay.com/itm/TopSun-Rosw...IAAOSwrHhc6GCA. It's OK if you really need to save money, but even though I'm on a fixed income, after half a season, I thought something more solid was worth the cost. The foam in particular is very soft. It's wider than my rack, and it sagged on the sides.

I have pretty much the same one... same comments :-). It's used as a tackle box and I just leave it attached for all my rides with short bungee cords.

It's serviceable and since my mtn bike is diminutive in height, I have no problem mounting over it.
