I installed a Bak Revolver 4X on my 2018 F-150 when new. It looked great and I was pleased with it. Now at 3 years old the covering material has started to crack and split along the rear slats. The rear slats also tend to jam up when folded and make it difficult to fold flat to close & latch it down. You didn't mention the price, but I paid about $1,000 for mine, 3 yrs ago. This is quite expensive for a top that has these issues after only 3 years. I am in Michigan and this truck is garage kept and doesn't stay out in the sun for long periods of time. I also want to mention that the water leaking in at the tailgate may not let much water in when on a level ground, but if you are not parked level, and the front of the truck is low, quite a bit of water can accumulate at the front of the bed.

I have a 2018 Chevrolet Silverado and bought a BAK Revolver X4s fall of 2018. My rolling cover is an older model than this one on the video. I have not had any major problems with the cover. It even keeps out the water fairly well. Six years, and i am satisfied. The only recent issue is a felt strip that is designed to hold the slats from separating has come loose from the underside of the cover. I contacted BAK. Even though i am out of warranty, BAK said they have a newer model of the cover that uses a newer technology for holding the individual slats together, and they wanted to 'do right by me' and has replaced my cover for free. In a couple days, when i am off work, i am replacing the cover. Just roll it up; undo the 4 bolts; remove; put the new cover on; bolt it on; roll it out and done. I have put a lot of miles on my truck, hauling belongings and cargo between Pennsylvania and Georgia, and Florida, through rain, snow, heat, and scorching sun. I am happy with the performance of my BAK Revolver.

I've had this cover on my '19 Ram 1500 for 4 years, and I've been quite pleased with it. I have a new Tundra on order, and I'm trying to decide what I want on this next truck. My only really complaint with the X4 was how handled Minnesota winters. Water would seep into the tracks and make it almost impossible to roll up. It wasn't a big deal for me, since my truck was mostly in the garage, but every once in a while it became almost non-functional. Any thoughts on better solutions for harsh winter climates?

I hope your X4 experience is better than mine. This is my second X4, as the first one I received the rails were too long for my tailgate to close, and the cover itself was too short. The company replaced both under warranty. The second cover I’ve had for two years. The glue holding the felt onto the underside has released and the felt has come off, and there is a 5 inch split in the top material right in a seam between two ribs. The weatherstripping on the rear edge has come off, and I’ve had to glue it back on. I really want to like this cover, but I’ve had too many problems with it.

The "S" version addressed many of those concerns (X4S). It doesn't help prior X4 owners, but I was impressed that Bak learned the weak points and made improvements on newer models. They replaced the felt with harder, rubberized plastic, improved the end-caps where it latches and improved the clamps that lock it in the rolled-up position.

I have had this cover on my tundra for almost a year now. It has been replaced once under warranty because several of the aluminum slats came unhinged and the cover would not lay flat or lock down. Fortunately the manufacturer came good on the warranty and I had a new one in just a few days. The other issue I have with this cover is it does not like to roll in the winter when ice and snow come in contact with it. So if you need to roll this cover and you live in an area that actually gets winter then this is not the cover for you. I may be replacing mine, but I haven't found a suitable replacement yet.

So much easier to open and close than a tri-fold and they roller cover has less water then any of my tri-folds. The last two MX4's I have had has a slow leak right in the middle of the cover. Bakflip has replaced it twice and same issue. I too agree I don't expect them to be 100% waterproof (then are not) but when going to the beach suits cases go in the middle and beach chairs, coolers go around the tailgate. great video...God bless

I have the X4 and like it a lot. I see yours has some improvements. At the tail end of the left and right flexible weatherstripping has some rigid flaps to keep the weatherstripping down, I wish they did that on the front as well. I see along the left and right underside, they removed the felt and replaced it with what looks like rubber or plastic. That is so your skin on your hand doesn’t get pinched in the pivot points of the slats when closing the cover.

Although thats true about finger pinching, the main function of the felt, and now rubber, is to not allow the aluminum slats to rub on the vinyl when you roll it up. The felt on my X2 was its biggest drawback, peeling off inside the first year of ownership. I wonder if BAK addressed the curved front edge of the RAM beds which is another failure point with my X2.

I recently saw the upgraded one and noticed the bare aluminum underneath is gone, which it also appeared in the video. I imagine they coated the bare aluminum so when the cover is down, items in the truck bed might rub the cover and don’t get black or dark gray from being in contact with the cover. In addition, when the cover is rolled up, it won’t rub bare aluminum onto the topside of the cover.

The tracks started coming apart, the vinyl started coming off. Long story short, I took it off and ordered a hard tri-fold because this cover became unusable. After trying to sell it online for a while I ended up tossing it in the dump. I definitely would not recommend it.

@@GearsGadgets It was the version being sold in 2017. It did not look like this one at the 4 minute mark in the video. What is that, plastic holding the tracks together? In place of that it had cloth glued to the tracks, which eventually came off, which allowed the tracks to separate, which made it a real pain to close. Hopefully this system is better. In addition to that though, like I said, the vinyl also started coming off. It came off right where it wraps around the end, where you are pointing at 2:20 in the video. Also there were some cracks that appeared in the vinyl from being rolled up. In fairness, those cracks could probably be prevented with routine use of armorall like products but after the other issues I basically "let it go" because I planned to replace it.

@@tommeier5714 . Material mx4 is made of is the problem. Water stays on top of the cover and freezes. It’s impossible to remove ice that builds up, specially when it’s snowing also. Surface of mx4 isn’t completly flat like a window, that’s why ice sticks to it like glue. Won’t work to scrape it. Now that doesn’t sound like a big problem until you read the manual which states you cannot open it when there’s ice on the cover. Doesn’t say why but guessing you will damage it and then your warranty won’t cover it. Where i live temperature is close to freezing or below most of winter so snow melts or sometimes it rains and then it all freezes. Maybe if you live in Canada and have real winter everyday it won’t be that bad but still i will never buy anything from BAK again cause it’s not waterproof and there was no info about it when i ordered mine. There’s a simple reason to why they don’t mention it. Hope it helps to make your decision.

Had an earlier version of this cover on my 2015 Ram 2500 which I transferred to my 2019 Ram 3500. Love this thing 90%. The only thing I didn’t like about it was the older versions had buckles on nylon straps on the exterior front of the cover which is what the interior straps/buckles connected to when the cover was rolled up. This worked great except that the exterior buckle would flap around in the wind between the bed and the cab when the cover was rolled out. The buckle would flop around hitting the cab and the bed causing an irritating clatter when driving. I fixed the problem by glueing some Velcro on the buckle and the cover and sticking the buckles to the cover when not being used. This worked great, but looked kinda like a like it was… a fix for a poor design. I see they have fixed that problem now with a more intigrated exterior buckle. My truck was recently broken into when the scum jumped up on top of the cover and kicked in the back window of my truck. Unfortunatly, the rear window wasn’t nearly as tough as the cover since the window shattered easily, but the cover was unscathed by the thief jumping on it! I just ordered a new BAK Revolver X4s!

I did love the safety aspect of the cover not so much on your water test from the car wash. Im sure that if it was just a down pour the water leakage would be none or way less then the car wash. I have a different cover for my truck that I failed to add a foam strip at the front of the bed. At car washes I get some water leakage but its way way less then you showed on yours. For the amount of money that you paid the safety aspect is great for a cover I think that it could have been better on the car wash test but like I said it is probably non existent in a regular rain storm. Oh and while my cover doesnt have a better security it was way cheaper. I just bought it for improving my gas milage which it did add very little lol.

I wonder how it rolls up in the freezing weather, will any of the parts crack? Will it roll at all in the freezing weather? I like that it doesn't have that bar at the back tailgate for loading access, but if I were to load up our clothes washer or dryer to take it to the appliance repair shop during the freezing winter, can I roll up this tonneau cover?

Sorry but regardless of one's expectations for water tightness in a cover, for a $1000+ it should be better than that!

After one year of use, the material broke, the company did not accept the repair under the warranty. I bought a new cover from LEER, it is so far great, made in the USA.

Bak just replaced my revolver because it started falling apart and changed color in 3 years exactly. It looked terrible. If they didn’t replace I was ripping it off. This is the cover they replaced mine with. Not much difference besides the plastic covers on the end by the tailgate and the inside doesn’t have glued on fabric that falls off.

Great review and I found it at a perfect time. Just about to order my new GMC but I'm not really a fan of there factory ordered covers. Soft or a Trifold is not what I am looking for but I think this one may be the one. Now to find a decent price here in Canada or as Covid protocol loosens up cross the border and bring it home?

Buyer be aware. The cover they shipped me for my 2021 Ram 2500 does not fit my truck. It was apparently manufactured “out of spec”. The vendor has finally admitted after my many attempts to install it. It is too wide at the tailgate end, over by at least 3/4”. Not at all pleased with this. You cannot install this cover in 45 minutes either….that is a gross over statement in my opinion.

Just say NO to loading your Harley in the back of your truck! Dumb idea, you are just asking for a trashed bike and trip to the Hospital. They make trailers for that very reason. Used to be in the motorcycle business for a long time and witnessed a lot of HUGE mistakes loading street bikes into trucks. Thanks for the info, I think I will order this BAK Revolver
