Swing away hitch carrier

Anyone have any experience with the swing away hitch carrier for skis or bikes? I'm considering an X5, but it's a little small. My wife is too short to reach the roof, so I'm looking at exterior storage options, and the swing away ski and bike carrier seems perfect.

I'm wondering if anyone has laid hands on one - the type that goes into the receiver, not the one that bolts to the screw boss at each corner of the bumper (although it's cool too, just doesn't do skis).
