Maxpider Vs. Weathertech and Husky Xact | CX-9, F-150, and Boss 302

[@mainmast7806]

Thanks for taking the time to review. I've had over 12k people on a set in a 2k7-2k9 Camrys, you could not ask for a better fit or better protection. First day I had them a rider dropped and extra large Dunkin' Donuts coffee in the rear and it held it all. Nothing hit the carpet. Not sure if it has changed but the husky liners I bought were lifetime guaranteed.

[@shanewhittemore]

Great video my friend, My Husky's will be here Wednesday for my 2022 Tundra. I purchased the x-act like you mentioned. I had the weather tech for my old Tundra and they were just ok. They curled up on the edges. Thanks for the great information.

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

Thanks, Shane. I would do the same with my Tundra, if I had one. Seems like a great truck.

[@1Sanantoniomatute]

Thank you. For a sedan I think i'll go with the Maxspider, I was not aware of them. They look more the part of a sedan.

[@Melonheadinbed]

these are far and away the best floor mats for your car if you can find them. they also make your interior look clean. they almost completely adhere to the contours of your carpet. they aren’t cheap but are the best. i had a full set front and back and for my cargo area on a 2016 explorer limited and i just bought a full set for an f150 crew cab.

[@VanityandSinh]

Maxpider or Husky?

[@timothyyates6130]

I've watched 4 floor mat videos in a row. This is by far the best one at simply demonstrating how well the mat performs and you really didn't do anything special. What you didn't do is roll up the mat, try to fold it like paper and throw a bunch of water on it from just inches away. All the other videos were worthless because no one is going to do those things. Keep it real and I subbed just for that.

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

Thanks Timothy for the comment and being "real", and for the sub. too.

[@ronnymb67]

Three years ago, a friend talked me out of WeatherTech based on his experience of the sides sagging after a year. I went with the 3D and couldn't be happier. They look better and clean up is a breeze.

[@bakwalker40]

I was researching floor liners/mats when I came across your video a couple months ago and hadn't heard of the 3D Maxpider before you mentioned them. I added them to my list of comparables for my 2016 Ford F150 Lariat and ended up buying the Maxpider so... THANK YOU for bringing them to my attention. I'm very happy with the fit and quality of them. All the best!

[@scottwieland8907]

Brian thank you for the positive feedback on the video and the Maxpider. As you may have noticed,I had gone to the Husky Xact for the F-150, so it is good to see that the Maxpider's work well in a truck as well. Take care.

[@scottwieland8907]

I appreciate the positive comments Nicklous. Take care.

[@douglasdever6134]

Grated the 3D mats do look great, they will do the job better than the summer type factory mat, but I'll bet the Husky X-act contour will do better just do the overlap of the mat onto the floor entrance panel, protecting the carpet inside the footwell from salt water, debris, etc.

[@jonnadesigns]

@Zinbad I have a 2018 Mazda CX-9, I couldn’t tell by your video but does the 3D cover all carpet from the door? Similar to how the Huskey overlaps and covers that area in your truck? I want all the carpet covered and wondered if there are any gaps between door panel and liner edge. Thanks for your response!

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

The 3D Maxpider's do not have as much coverage as the Husky for CX-9, however, at the time the Xact's were not available. Perhaps the availability has changed.

[@FrozsteiN]

Loved the video and the review!

[@solano760]

I've had maxpider for a couple years and they do not hold up over time the pad on the driver's side mat will start to come off, the velcro like material underneath has started to detach, and the back mats where two corners meet have started to tear, and color has started to fade. hope this info helps out because those mats aren't cheap.

[@angelberrios7843]

Great video on the car mats. Made in the USA goes very far with me. Only negative thing I noticed was the covering of your vehicles license plates. You don’t drive that way do you?

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

Thank you Angel and no I do not drive with the plate covered. Lol!

[@hdtvkeith1604]

Yeah Weathertech is nice, but does not lay flat and has gaps. These Husky look great as does Tux,at, but they don’t make either for as many cars.

[@douglasdever6134]

Just ordered the X-act Contour front liners for my new vehicle, weathertech was not an option, had them not impressed. Smartliner are better than weathertech, and order a set from Amazon twice but they failed to deliver the correct liners...twice. So, a neighbor mentioned Husky. So they look good,, so ordered. Time will tell. The Maxpider has no liners for my vehicle, so that was a pass. But thanks for the view of the mats full of dried salt. I moved to Idaho from Michigan (through Utah for a six years) and I really miss the salt that was used on the roads in MI and other surrounding states. Really sorry that Idaho does not use salt by the ton for every five feet. (Yes, being sarcastic.)

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

Thanks, Douglas. The salt may keep people safe, but the depreciation on the vehicles is crazy due corrosion. I always wondered if Utah was a good place to live/retire? Idaho not so much.

Nice Video - I was debating between the Weathertech and these for our Chevy Malibu. Based on the video, I'm going to give these a try.

[@beastgirl43]

Phil Chapman I just got a 19 Malibu RS. How do you like these in yours?

[@JeremyCharette]

Is it just me, or do the connectors on the front mats not really seat on the posts on the floor? They seem to sit on the posts, but there's not snap, and they pop off easily if you pull up. Wondering if I'm doing something wrong. Watching the video, looks like yours fits the same.

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

Jeremy, I no longer have the CX-9. I do not recall having any issues with the posts. I'm guessing you are not totally centered. I suggest peeling back the liner enough so you can see it engage. The factory mats that come with the car, tend to have a definite "click", which is missing from the Maxspider liners. My current BMW uses only velcro and no posts. Sorry I could not be of much help.

[@tylergilliland]

Well done. The exact video I was looking for to compare the options for my new car. How are the Maxpiders doing after 2 months? Still laying down nicely? Are they cushy at all?

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

Bob P Hey thanks. I'm glad you found the video helpful. The Maxpider's fit as well today as the day of the video/install. They are "cushier" than the other liners. On par with the factors carpeted mats.

[@xninjagrrl]

Bob P I popped some 3d maxpiders in my Challenger a month or two ago. Perfect fit and def cushy compared to weathertech and husky. They also look sleek as hell. The others are too industrial looking for cars imo.

Daryl, I could not be happier at this point with the Maxpider liners. Still the best option, in my opinion.

Great job and not too wordy to get your point across (for my short attention span :-) )

[@scottwieland8907]

Thank you.

[@YouMotorcycle]

Good video, especially for a first video. I subscribed. Cheers :) PS: Which of the liners is your favorite for snowy/slushy conditions? (Asking from Canada)

[@scottwieland8907]

A lot depends on the style of vehicle and availability. I have all but turned away from Weathertechs and the Husky liners due to the sometimes sloppy look and slippery when wet behavior. They, however, are most readily available for most vehicle models. I think for trucks the Husky Xact is a great option, but for cars and crossovers, the Maxpider would be my go-to option. Another viewer commented recently about another option called the Aries XD, which look like a more stylized Maxpider in form, fit and function, but they seem limited on which vehicles they currently offer. So last month I bought the Maxpider for a BMW X3M40i, which confirmed they are still a great solution. Thank you and take care, my Canadian friend.

[@YouMotorcycle]

@@scottwieland8907 much appreciated. Wasn't sure if I should pay extra for the more established name brand, WeatherTech. But now I feel more comfortable just giving these ones a try and saving a few bucks. Going with the max for the interior, three rows, and husky has the best price for my trunk liner for the pup. Drive safe and thanks again.

[@xhuff317]

How would you rate the three after having experienced them over a winter season? How have the 3D mats held up to the test of time? Thank you for the informative video.

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

Since I made the video, I have sold all the vehicles. Our BMW X3 now has the Maxpiders which are doing well and still my go to. For trucks, I prefer the Husky Xacto's because of the ruggedness, but Maxpider 's would still be a good option.

[@tacticoolgent1784]

Does that 3D logo come off the maxspiders? Nice vid, I agree, the weathertechs dont conform well in the corners. I'm looking at the xact for my Tahoe but the spiders looks pretty sweet. How are they holding up?

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

I apologize, I missed your comment. I try to reply to all as I receive the notifications. You may have already learned the answer, but others may benefit moving forward. Unlike Weathertech, which glues its emblem on, the Maxpider is riveted. I have had a Weathertech emblem separate from the liner. Maxpider emblems are more secure, however, the rivets can wear the carpet underneath. A recent Maxpider purchase provided a piece of felt to help prevent this from happening. Time will tell. I still recommend Maxpider for most applications, but trucks may benefit from the look and ruggedness of the Husky X-acts. I also noticed that Weathertech is now offering a similar product called HP, which might be another good option. Take care.

They are holding up as well as the day, I put them in. Just dirtier. I would still highly recommend the Maxpiders over the Weathertechs. Take care.

[@stupidrules1000]

First: Nice video. I have and F-150 and am deciding between the xact and the 3D. I had two questions: 1) how are the 3D's holding up? and 2) if you had the choice to use the 3D in your F-150 instead of the xact which would you choose? Thanks for the vid.

[@scottwieland8907]

Great question Gregory. I am very happy with the Xact's, because of the coverage, Durability and the industrial look for my XLT sport. The 3D's are holding up great, however, they are probably less durable in my opinion, because of the rolled edge. The edge allows for a nice finished look but, because of it, they seem like the edge could be kinked if not handled properly when you pull them out for cleaning. They have a more elegant look, if you will, which seems more appropriate for cars and some SUV's. Having said that, if cost is a factor in your decision-making process, I believe the 3D's are a good value. I hope this reply helps. Take care.

[@stricklerjosh]

Man I am in the same spot. I can’t decide between the two. My truck is more our family vehicle than a work truck so I won’t be hauling around a bunch of stuff in it but I do have three crazy kids who can dirty up anything lol

[@Snyperx77]

I was curious to know if you are having any issues with the driver side heel pad delaminating? I was reading some reviews that this seems to be a common problem with the Maxpider's after a few months of use. I have a set inbound for my 2014 Mazda 6 mainly because they are the best looking mats.

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

Snyperx77, I have not had any issues, how about yourself?

[@EmilPacurar]

actually I got 1st and 2nd row maxspider (2018 cx-9)and I am not happy with the 2nd row at all, uncovered areas that gets dirty with 2 kids :( 1st row looks nice I must say

[@scottwieland8907]

If you are referring to the section on each side of the second row, I left the small carpeted mats from the factory remain in place and overlapped with the third row Maxpiders. I hope this helps. Take care.

[@EmilPacurar]

no, right next to the chair. I keep them pushed back so kids can get in easily, but that creates an uncovered middle area that gets dirty. I got the husky ones and they are much better, at least for the second row. Much more coverage. Just they don't look that cool :)

[@scottwieland8907]

I am glad you found a bit of a solution to the problem. Thanks for sharing.

[@erickhuang579]

Hey there! great review. I'm debating in between getting the Maxpider or Husky Liners. I am wondering which material is easier to clean. Since I have two dogs and my floor mats are covered with furs, which one would you recommend out of the two?

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

I have always had difficulty getting my Weathertech liners to look clean. They offer a specific cleaner on their website. The Husky liners would be similar as far as mud and dirt showing. I can not comment on the fur, as my dog "doesn't shed". The Husky X-act clean up pretty easily and if they are available for your vehicle I would still recommend them over the Weathertech and Husky liners. My experience with the Maxpider's have been positive and Amazon reviews would support my findings. The Maxpiders, I have not yet cleaned, because they have shown very little dirt. I recommend the Maxpider to a fellow co-worker, because of the lower cost and nicer look, however, he found one bad review on Amazon, which reads as follows: 3.0 out of 5 starsAhhhhh... ByP.Aon August 15, 2016 Color: Black|Verified Purchase They are way nicer than any mat like it and it fit pretty good too but, I rinsed them off with the hose and left them in the sun while I cleaned my truck the lost all shape like I mean totally flat like a sheet of paper, I couldn't believe my eyes. Amazon was nice enough to send a new set and they were missing the floor grommets so it wouldn't stay in place on the drivers side. Sure are nice looking though :( When I get around to cleaning the Maxpider's I will try and update you. Take care.

thanks for the info I like the husky. would you have gotten the husky if it was available for your car?

[@zinbad-carreviewsandmore1476]

Short answer - Yes. I am impressed with the Husky Xact (heavy rubber), but not the Weatherbeater Husky Liners. Since the Xact's were not available, I kept looking for a better option than Weathertech's and found the Maxpider's. They look better than all the other options in my opinion and you get more for your money, such as a third row for the CX-9. The others did not provide the third row for the same money.

Does the Maxpider give you a more quieter ride or is there no difference?

[@scottwieland8907]

I would say they are on par with the factory carpeted mats. I would imagine they are quieter than Weathertech or Husky liners. Not a scientific approach, I suppose one could have used a before or after decibel meter reading, but this would still end up being a subjective test based on road and weather condition noise.
