You'll get what you pay for.

That price seems too good to be true. I wouldn't be surprised if that cover starts to fall apart after a year. As the saying goes, "you only pay for quality once". If you do buy it, please post some pics.

looks like a cheap "snap" style cover, it might last you through the winter if you clean the snow off the top of it, after that you'll be over it and want something nicer

I have had an extang trifecta for almost 4 yrs now and it is still in awesome shape. I first bought it for my 08 LMM then when I bought my 2011 HD I switched it over. Been worth every $$$ and I have had 20" of snow on top of it and it never bowed. Best cover I have ever had.

I second that you get what you pay for. If you're looking for a roll up tonneau cover, I have a Roll 'N' Lock. You can stand on it and it's completely secure with a solid lock. If you never plan to keep valuables in it unattended then cheaper would work. I'd think about what you plan to use it for. Good luck!

While I agree with the "you get what you pay for" with most all products that doesn't always stand to be true. I have bought several things off ebay at discount prices from tail lights, grills, emblems, ect, and have had very good luck with them. For instance I purchased an ebay billet grill for $60 when most aftermarket retailers were at $150 or more. It has gone through 2 NW Indiana winters and is still going strong. Another example would be my LED tail lights I purchased for this truck. They are exactly like Anzo's with retail in the $250 to $300 range and I purchased them for $180 shipped to my door. Quality and material is the same, installation the same, function the same.

 

I would be leary of some items at a cheap price but not everything at a discount price is garbage. Just my experience.

im more of sayin the design looks cheap, not concerned over the price, it looks like a big pain in the butt it looks exactly like an older snap cover for the most part, very difficult to use in colder weather... just my opinion, truxedo makes nice roll up covers... more expensive but with a life time warrenty on their lo pro model

I had an Extang classic snap cover on my 99 F-150. Hated the snaps in the winter, but it kept water out. Could never get them all snapped together under 30*, even on a sunny day. I bought an Access Cover Limited for my 2003 that still looks and works the same as new. That is, it rolls up great regardless of the temperature very quickly and easily, but water leaks in the bed, partly because of the 01-03 F-150 Supercrew curved bed design.

 

For $140, I'd be willing to try this one. Maybe ask for some more pictures of the latch and bows. As with all vinyl bed covers (and interior trim), use 303 Aerospace Protectant every couple months. Compare that to $400+ for Access/Truxedo.
