    Autoanything has a pretty cool side by side comparison:

    RealTruck's comparison:

    And another TW thread with guys going back and forth about which one is better:

    My opinion: I own neither - I have stock Toyota ones. After reading the reviews, it seems they're both going to do the same thing. I'd just pick one and go with it, brother. But just my two cents!

    Thanks. I've been reading and reading and finally was like " I'm getting weathertechs" Then kept reading a little and decided " Im getting Huskys!" Ive been circling for a couple days now lol. Hopefully one of your links will stick a fork in it.

    I don't think any of those links will stick a fork in it, unfortunately! I think this is one of those products where they're the same product just marketed slightly differently by two different companies.

    You can't go wrong.

    Just pick one! :-D

    I had WeatherTechs in my 2010. the did the job, but they were stiff. So, they fit, but in a 'rigid' way, with gaps. I got Husky Xact fit for my2015. They're flexible, fit better, and cover better. No comparison, IMO. YMMV.

    Have WT in mine. Glad I have them. Never considered Husky but imagine they do the same thing.
    IMO, go with which ever will save you more $$.

    I don't think you will go wrong with either. I have huskys but I have had weathertechs in the past. Just make sure you get the ones that go over the back seat hump in the back.

    I don't know if weathertechs have this but my Husky all weather mats have little rubber spikes on the bottom. Holds the mat in place nicely but you have to be very careful putting them in because they will tear up your seats if you do it wrong..pretty much have to bend them to get them below the seats and then unfold.

    I don't think WT makes something similar to the Husky X-Act Contour. I think that is superior mat.

    Floor mats are like door mats. They just get stepped on. Pick which one looks sexier and you won't go wrong. I have wt in the rear for the kids.

    One thing to consider is you can use a coupon code at AutoAnything for the huskies, but you can't for Weathertechs.

    Had both Weathertech and husky in my tacoma. Bought the Husky's first based on reviews from members here and online...I hated the glossy look, slippery finish, and the general fit. Returned them and got the Weathertechs. Weathertechs look nicer, are more rigid and fit better. as far a durability....I imagine they both would hold up well.

    I have weathertech and no experience with huskyliner. Got weathertech because I found a used set, practically new, in a local CL ad. Have had them for 3 years now.

    Yes they do the job but one thing I don't like is when I'm taking them out to clean them up. The front is so stiff that I have to be careful when taking them out or some stuff might fall off the mat - especially my driver side with the retainer clip.

    The rear mat is so long that I almost don't want to scoot up both front seats to take them out when I clean my truck. My daughter has spilled liquids and food back there where, again, I have to be careful when taking out or it can fall off the mat.

    The mud and dirt I accumulate during rainy, muddy outdoor activities have stained the mats up front. I've rinsed, scrubbed, and pressure sprayed them and they don't rinse off easily like advertised in their commercial so my mats are black with brown stains :p

    If I can get a good deal on Husky I'd switch to see how they are and compare/contrast between the two and sell off the one I don't like.

    I bought the Husky's and had to return them because the fit of the drivers side mat was terrible, huge gaps along the transmission tunnel, I'm now debating between the Weathertech and Toyota all weathers.

    Which Huskys did you buy?

    I have the X-act fit version, and by no means are they glossy and they fit perfect.

    Not only that but they cover further up the floor area than the WT's. They cover the entire dead pedal.

    Driver side fits perfect, slight gap against the floor hump on the passenger side though.

    Husky Liners 98951 WeatherBeater Series Black Front and 2nd Seat Floor Liner

    They did cover the foot rest more, but everywhere else they had less coverage then Weathertechs. Also the Weathertechs have a much deeper pan for the rear compared to the Husky's.

    I have the weathertechs and I'm pretty happy with them. They fit well and cover 100% better than the toyota all weather mats which I had in my last tacoma.

    Having said that, I recently had them replaced under warranty because both the front mats started to get this sticky tacky film on the undersides. It didn't happen on the exposed side. I tried scrubbing them down, but couldn't get them cleaned. They left a nasty residue when touching and I wasn't cool with that sitting on the truck carpet. I called autoanything about it and they had me send pictures. Once they had that they sent me a new pair.

    The rear mat never formed the residue. They were 2 years old when I had them replaced.
