Good rundown. I've owned all three, and the Husky liners hold their shape better and longer than the Weathertechs. Oddly, I prefer the Weatherbeaters to the Xact Contours. Thanks for the review!

Next month will be 2 years since I purchased my 2016 F150 and the X-act Contour mats. They have been great for protecting the carpet. They clean up really easy and look almost new each time. I also have the rear mat. The front mats fit perfect, the rear mat almost perfect. I use my truck for daily use; I live in the city...so the mats do not get heavy mud/wet usage. I am very please after 2 years.

[@cheefussmith9380]

haha, throwing in the OEM really drives the point home. thanks for posting this - big help

I purchased the weather techs for my Subaru. Yes the hard plastic does not feel good Under my feet but they are a big improvement over the factory supplied floor mats that came with my car.

I have a set of Weathertechs in my 2008 Grand Caravan that I put in when I bought the van new 10 years ago, still look great.

[@plmn93]

Nice review. I had WeatherTechs in my last F-150 and Husky Weatherbeaters in our van. I prefer the pliability of the Husky, the WeatherTechs deformed quite a bit over the years, curling up on the edges. Went with Husky in the new truck and like them. Both are lifetime warranty and made in the US, I like that.

[@A_Based_Entity]

Do you still prefer the Husky's over the WearherTechs? Do you have the Weatherbeaters still in your truck? An update would be much appreciated!

[@plmn93]

@@A_Based_Entity Not sure why I didn't see this. It's been nearly 5 years and the Weatherbeaters have held up great. There are some scratches and a little fading but they still look pretty good. I also have had Weatherbeaters in a Town & Country for 8 years and have no complaints.

[@zyepod]

I'm using WeatherTech now and they do a great job protecting my carpet. Not to crazy about the stiffness of them which is why when I buy another set I'm gonna try the Husky X-Act Contour... You did a great job comparing the three. Thanks for sharing.

[@BTB1337]

I'm just curious as to why you chose the weather techs? not to be bias towards one or the other I've just heard a lot of people prefer weather tech vs husky (I prefer the x-act contour between the 2 husky models). Is it more of a popularity type thing like well everyone else has weather tech and they like them so I'll get them. Or is there particular reason such as certain features people enjoy more? thank you!

[@GreenMachineXXII]

Some husky x- act contour aren't exact look them up before you buy

I'm a big fan of my WeatherBeater Huskys. Your feet don't slip around, can catch a gallon of water per side, cleans up nice and are durable.

[@laneblount9888]

I’ve had weathertechs for over 3 years and I love them. Wouldn’t want anything else. My carpet looks brand new under them and I use my truck for work hunting and everything in between so they get abused but hold up great

[@DirtNassty]

I own a detail business and have been detailing vehicles for almost 20 years! Weather techs make life SO Much easier as you could imagine! Theonly thing i do not like about Weathertech is the black color mats....they ALWAYS looks like absolute ass when they are dirty...when you clean the black they just look all scratched up and really faded looking...i have a light beige color interior in my truck so i have the tan ones and they look brand new everytime i clean them up...as well as the cocoa color we have in the ol ladies jeep overland.....I def recommend WeatherTech, but would avoid the black color if possible! They just do not clean up as well as the other ones, they show ever single scratch and always stay looking dirty even when cleaned up, afte using them for awhile of course

[@Count_Grishnackh]

Use trim restorer and they will look brand new

[@DirtNassty]

@@rommelbuena998 yes... If you want to shine them up once they look like crap after awhile they become very slick..and trust me I've tried MANY different dressings and sprays and anything that actuslly works and makes them actuslly look decent makes them really slick.. Ive had weathertech in my last 3 or 4 pickups and opted for the RAM oem slush mats in my new 5TH Gen ram and I like them a MILLION times better than the weather tech options for these new trucks, so that's always an option too! The ram mats have a much better fit and finish to them and look alot nciwr with the ram logo etc..

[@jimshort9266]

@@DirtNassty … I was wondering if you tried 303 protectant to shine them up. I’m not recommending 303, I’m actually curious. I have only used it a few times on exterior stuff. I doesn’t leave a high gloss and it’s recommended you wipe it off after letting it sit a bit so it might not leave a slick surface. I don’t know though is why I ask. It could leave it slick and it may not hide the scratches well. If you don’t have any experience with it I guess I’ll just have to give it a try.

[@jrzoska]

Great vid thanks! By the way...how about vacuuming that carpet for me.Lol ; )

[@AaronBeihl]

I have a set of the weather tech ones in my main vehicle but I thinking about getting these husky rubber ones for my truck. I find that the weather tech ones make the car sound a bit louder inside since it is so rigid. I really like the idea of a more maluable rubber mat that reflects and possibly deadens more sound.

[@knz9701]

Ty for this video.. It really helped me to choose the right investment for us. I would choose the same as yours Husky Xacto.. Thanks again for a great review on all 3!

[@bad50]

I was a weathertech fan for years.....until my local store where i bought my topper talked me into trying Husky X-act for my 2018 F150. Weathertech is very good, but over time they will stain and are impossible to make them look new again. I went almost 2 years without cleaning my Husky mats, mud, dirt, rocks etc.(dont judge me :) LOL ) The husky's cleaned up and truly look like new with just dawn soap, water and a scrub brush.

[@TruckStuff1]

I agree. I'm a big fan of the Huskys!

[@butcherdronevideos8869]

If you have these mats, why all the dirt underneath the mat?

[@littledevildee]

Soo hard to decide; looked at 6 others and half are for the one of the others and half for Husky. I think subjectiveness still bears the weight of a review: type of car, preferences, specific needs/wants, etc. Thanks for reviewing.

I hate the weather tech floor mats. We have them in a 2016 mustang and a 2013 expedition. Both have large gaps in between the side of the floor and the wall of the floor mat. I also don't like how they hold dirt and turn a grey color. In my step dad's truck he has the husky and they look better. I am a fan of the more rubbery and malleable material. I'm going to get the husky.

[@willb6070]

Been looking at all 3 of these for my 2016 Edge. Think you pretty much confirmed the direction I am leaning towards. Great comparison video.

[@superf8433]

very informative rundown. my question is which floormat were you using that allowed all that debris to bypass and build up on your floor board?

[@mtkreger]

None of the 3 would let that amount of debris through to the carpet. I'm a Husky Weatherbeater fan. I've used them in 2 trucks and a car. They look good, after years of use, and keep your carpet looking like new.

[@dooflicker1]

@@mtkreger I am a fan of the Husky Weatherbeater's as well. Had them in my Ford SuperDuty & they worked great. Easy to clean as well. In my 2016 Tacoma, the factory floorliners were very similar to the Husky Xact fit & they were nice too but required more to clean them & keep them black. I found using a tire & wheel cleaner on them worked best to keep them black.

[@caseynahrgang5995]

Trey Spooner Have you ever had to empty the weather tech when it had a large amount of fluid in the bottom? It just looks like it would be difficult to remove and dump water out without spilling onto the carpet. Thanks!

[@chrisboyd4433]

@@caseynahrgang5995 I use an old bath towel. During the winter, excess water in the mat will result in frost INSIDE the windows. I keep a couple of old bath towels in the garage. Use one to soak up the water, then throw it in the wash.

Wait till you have the WeatherTech for a few years then the corner start curling up and don't quite fit as nice as they do when they're new. I've had several WeatherTech mats and now I like husky much better. Husky holds their shape and don't curl after a few years

For a review on floor mats to keep your interior clean, the carpet under the mats is filthy. Does that much stuff get underneath them?

[@MWDAdventures]

6 min mark you said the weather beat is the stiffer one . From other reviews I have seen they are saying the software one is weather beater and lays more flat. the x- contour I was told is closest to weather tech.

[@cstgx]

The weatherbeaters are the best hands down

[@douglasdever6134]

Not all Husky floor liners have the flap that goes over the sill. I just received a pair, no flap, driver liner did not fit tight at back or on side against tunnel, and there was a bulge by the dead pedal. Holes were not punched out, had to cut with knife. They are being returned. Ordered smartliner.

[@TruckStuff1]

There is a lot of variety in the style, for example 40/20/40 vs captain seats, single cab vs double cab. It sounds like you got the wrong style

[@dalenarobinson4846]

Now I am leaning more towards Husky. Which one should I get if I rarely will get mud tracks and a lot of dirt. I don't want to go too premium.

Thanks for the video. It would be helpful for you to explain why you prefer one over the other, instead of just saying that.

[@jasonashley9853]

I have the winter beater ones for my 2016 Focus and the driver side is letting water underneath it. The carpet is wet from snow melting and getting underneath the mat. Really disappointed with Husky on this one. The dead pedal is much better than weather tech but the point is to not let moisture on to the carpet.

[@JohnSmith-qj7hd]

Wore a hole through my x-act contour after 4 years. Bought a new set and just washed it and the husky logo fell off.... it was my first time washing it and it was on the passenger side which hardly gets used. Honestly for the price of these they should be better, I’m not impressed.

I have had weathertech in another vehicle and they held up really well, but I did not like the feel of them under my feet.

Can you speak to the fitment and longevity of the three piece liner?

[@07slowbalt]

Had my 2018 f-150 for 5 days now and this video just made me drop $107 on amazon!!! I have husky mats in my ford edge and ill be going with weathertech this go around. They have the best coverage where your muddy boots are likely to rub on. Very high sidewall coverage is where im basing my decision this go around. My husky mats are very nice but after 6 months they start transforming and peel away from the walls. This was a constant battle that let dirt beneath the mats. Had to use a 3m double sided velcro to secure them. It worked til the summer heat kicked in and then they gave out.

[@3rdeyemama]

It seemed by your comments that you liked the weathertech's coverage and look the best so I am curious whey did you choose the Husky ones as your favorite? You never really said what made you like them the best. Thanks!

[@RonnieGreher]

Great video. My primary objective is to contain winter messes and prevent road salt from getting onto my carpet and staining it. With that in mind, I feel that Weather Tech is going to provide the best protection from the elements. I like the visual design of WT, the locking mechanism, and high sides. I would prefer a more rubbery mat, but ultimately protection will be my priority. The OEM rubber/all weather mats in my Honda Fit, particularly the driver’s mat, are shamefully inadequate and not inexpensive. It would be nice if Weather Tech would give us a choice on the firmness of the material, as Husky does, but price aside they seem to edge out Husky in many reviews. I’ll probably stick with OEM for the rear seats, as I don’t carry passengers that often, and have not experienced carpet staining in my 3 years of having this car. Weather Tech seems to be like Apple in their no haggle no discount pricing model. They also seem to take longer to ship. In the end, it’s all about interior protection.

[@Icutmetal]

ronnie greher I feel the same way. I want to replace the OEM liners in my new GMC Sierra; which are very nice, but have a large area underneath the accelerator pedal that I can’t stand. I like the X-Act contour Husky’s, but I want maximum coverage for muddy boots and winter slop.

Do your feet slide around on any of these mats?

[@ObamaPhoneProMax5G]

I have the opposite opinion. I’ve had weather tech mats in my old cars but due to the plasticy materials once you get it dirty it never looks clean ever again. The plastic material shows every scratch and the only way to make it look clean again is to use tire shine which defeats the purpose.

Can you review Road Comforts All Weather Mats?

[@pastortlc1]

Dude, two things. It may have helped to prove the effectiveness of the liners if your carpet was clean. I have a 2016 and my carpet still looks brand new. I use the factory rubber mats but I keep it vacuumed out. Secondly, do you think you may have had a better opinion of the Husky WeatherBeaters if you had the proper model and fit? I will thrown in a third, what about price and warranty in the comparison as well. I recently found the WeatherTechs on their site for $199.99, the Husky X-Act Contour were $209.95 and the Husky Weatherbeater is $119.00 on their site. All three for a full set front and back. Otherwise, great comparison because you actually show them in the truck and I do understand as you stated so well, "it is up to you because it is your truck." Thanks for the review.

[@TruckStuff1]

I know about my messy truck lol. I spend a lot of time in there with my dogs so it gets messy quick and I get complacent. But I probably should have cleaned it before this video. 2nd, no I don't think fitment affected my opinion, I just didn't care for the material is the weatherbeaters but I know a lot of people do.

[@kcsparrow616]

Did you get the mats for the back? If so how does it fit in the back? Thanks

[@TruckStuff1]

I did on some of them but didn't do a much of a review on them. They all covered about the same and they all had different texture and patterns. The weather tech curled at the corners. The husky was my favorite because it was softer and lay flat right out of the box. The WT probably would have laid flat eventually but I worried about the doors curling it up which has been reported.

[@snowbird29803]

Looks like all Husky has for my van is Weatherbeater and no X-ACT. The X-ACT appears to be more supple and would likely conform better to floor contours once in place for a while. Maybe Husky is trying to go head to head with WeatherTech on one product? I'll have to call Husky and ask.

[@OhPhuckYou]

Same with my 15 Fusion, but I am enamored by these WeatherBeater mats! They fit perfectly, clean up easy, feet don't slide around and they're more durable than the X-ACT.

[@whatfreedom7]

I own weathertech’s in a different truck.in mine and in most vehicles I’ve seen them in they don’t fit well. They usually end up with weird gaps near the trans hump and kick panel area. I tried heating mine to flare it out wider so it would be a tight correct fit but still didn’t help. I won’t buy them again I’ll probably go Husky or 3D maxspider. I have seen the maxspider in dozens of vehicles and they always fit great.

[@TruckStuff1]

Both the max spider and the husky are great options!

[@budman46360]

I recently purchased a used vehicle that had a Husky rear floor cover but had to remove it. The material was decomposing and emitting a foul smell that was reminiscent of a very old vehicle left out in the sun its entire life. Additionally it was curling up making it look awful. I have since purchased a complete set of Weather Tech mats (as I have for several of my past vehicles) and have been mostly pleased with them. The only negative thing I can say about them is that they don't extend upward all the way to the top of the dead pedal and of course that is where the ball of my foot generally is. So as a consequence water/dirt can easily get behind them. Unfortunately I know of no other brand that completely covers this area

[@butcherdronevideos8869]

They come with a lifetime warranty. Call Husky.

[@deegan727]

Maybe put a piece of that tacky clear film dealers use to protect there cars carpets and their courtesy vehicles.Or just any clear vinyl on that "dead pedal" area.Overlap it onto the mat so the water will go down the mat and not behind.Its just an idea to maybe remedy your issue hopefully it works or gives you an idea that does.End rant.

Had weather tech for 2017 f250 platinum , they are OK often over priced , they will deform after a few years from heat and cold, now have the xact contour and I feel like they are better since they are more rubber like and will mold better. Also weather tech fades faster I didn't like that
