Roll up soft bed covers

Im looking to purchase a soft roll up bed cover. Trying to keep it simple and affordable (to me). I have no desire to spend a grand or more, I dont need the features.

Looked at the made in the USA Weathertech, but Im finding too many reviews that are negative about overall durability.

The TruXedo soft roll up has mostly good reviews all around and a price of around 350 bucks which works fine for me

I also looked at Tyger Auto T1. Its pretty inexpensive at close to a hundred bucks less than the TruXedo. It also gets good reviews, but does come up that the materials to build it are not up to the TruXedo quality.

I looked a bunch of others but most seemed really cheap. Any comments on any of these listed or any ideas on a brand I may have missed thats good quality? I dont think Id want to go over 500 bucks and that seems high for a roll up soft cover.

Re: Roll up soft bed covers

I just did the Truxedo for my 2015. Got it through the Summit catalog.

https://www.summitracing.com/parts/TRX-272401

Had it on there about a month and had the opportunity to exercise it a couple times. No complaints so far.

Re: Roll up soft bed covers

I had the tygre, it lasted about 5 years. I thought that was good for the price.
I think it was around $150 then

Re: Roll up soft bed covers

My Dodge cummns had a TruXedo when I got the truck, I think it is. Seemed real good quality, But I took it off cause I dont care for bed covers .
Put on a big cross bed tool box
