    I know everyone likes weather tech mats but I noticed maxliners on Amazon and they get great reviews. Also have a lifetime warranty, has anyone here used both brands? Any thoughts?

    X 3 on the Husky x acts. They are the best mats that ive ever had. Slippery at first but very grippy and comfortable soon after. Never owned weathertechs but I prefer Huskys over the harder plastic of the weathertechs that I've seen.

    weather tech LINEAR here (not mat), but like others, never had experience with any other brand. Whole family have weather tech linear, I tend to buy them as gifts... in the taco, rav4, yaris, lexus, and 4runner. The linear are pricey but I think they are well worth every penny. They are clean looking and cover a lot of area that get dirty.

    Can't go wrong with Weather tech or Husky Liners, I have Weather techs in my Tacoma and my dad has Husky Liners in his tundra. The X Act contour liners from Husky are nice for the driver and passenger mats, but I did notice on the rear mat for the crew max tundra it feels kind of foam like and not as rigid. But from what I can tell so far the husky liners are just as good if not better in some aspects compared to the weather techs. They both are great.

    I also recommend Husky X-Acts. But I'm biased as it's the only floor mat I ever bought but consequently I can't find a single complaint about them. They fit perfectly and the material is awesome. I've had mine for almost 2 years now and no damage/wear to be found.

    Side note: people talk crap about Huskys but usually they are mistakingly talking about the weather beaters or other lower tier mats.

    Another husky vote. I have weather techs and the gf has huskys in her rav. The weathertech has a gap at the kick plate. Hers fit like a glove all the way around.

    I have Weather techs. They are holding up well although now that I've seen the Husky mats in person I like them better.

    No real complains with the Weather techs other than the branding kept coming loose...so I removed it.

    I am in the minority here as everyone on here convinced me those Husky Xact Mats were awesome but the fit around the transmission tunnel was absolutely horrible so I returned them. I bought Weathertech mat and they have minor fittimant issues also but nothing close to the gaps of the Husky.

    I was really stoked to get weather techs in my truck and then quickly noticed the gap on the driver side panel. It drives me freaking crazy now. I will be trying the husky x-act liners down the road.

    From what I understand about the Huskies prior to buying mine was that they have several sets of floor mats. Some universal, (That aren't model specific), and X-act fits which are. For me the Apples to Apples test was feeling the material of both brands @ a truck offroad shop. Huskies won me over easily and they were cheaper. Got mine from Amazon. Really nice upgrade mod that goes along way to maintaining the integrity of my truck interior. JM.02 cents

    After loving the Weathertechs initially, I'm not happy. they fit fine for about 2 months then this started happening, and seems to be getting worse... i'd go with something else
