"As a retired aerospace engineer I tend to be very critical of product designs. I looked at several other manfacturers and kept coming back to the extang Solid Fold tonneau cover for my new F-150 truck. The design is very simple and extremely easy to install. It almost took me longer to get it out of the shipping box then it did to install it. Other products had way to many parts (multiple rails, drain hoses, compound mounting brackets etc) to go bad or malfunction. That's what sold me on the extang. There's no drilling required and it sits right on top of the bed sides. When closed it also has a LOT smoother top thereby not having small grooves to trap dirt, or up north, water and/or ice which would end up damaging the seals and hinges between the folding panels. My only negative ctitic would be with the latching straps that hold all three panels together when folded up. The anchor bracket for the tie back straps should have been placed in a more solid part of the frame, but then that would have required a much longer strap. With my locking tailgate I now have a nice dry and secure bed. The extang customer service guys were great to work with in determining if it would not interfere with my OEM bed extender, which the locking latch handles clear with no problem. Overall, there's not much that can go wrong with this cover and I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting a good reliable tonneau cover for the bed of their truck."

"The cover arrived with two sections seperated. The glue joint had failed. I reassembled the two covers and it seems to stay together. I was a little disappointed because the cover looked great with no defectects. I still don't if it will hold. The look is great and I can lock up my stuff"

"Well packed and arrived with no damage. That said, no installation instructions came with the Extang. I called AutoAnything, and was told instructions and warranty card would be sent. Nothing has arrived. I then called Extang, and the customer service rep e-mailed the instructions. Installation was then very easy. Very well made and sturdy cover. Much easier to use than a one-piece cover. Removes easily. Great value. I would highly recommend the Extang to any truck owner who is looking to keep the truck bed secured."

"I like everything about the cover. It certainly exceeded my expectations on fit, appearance, and so far it's shown good weathertightness. Installation takes less time than wrestling with the carton and removing the contents. Now, Extang has to work on getting the price down a little bit. I would highly recommend the bed cover."

"Shipping was quick, received with no damage to cover. Received the tailgate seal the day after the cover. This took about 10 minutes from unpacking to install on truck. Front corners do not seal completely on bed(very small gap) but I haven't noticed any water in bed. Work well with locking tailgate to secure contents."

"It's a nice enough cover. I wish the rear latches were more adjustable for tension, or that they were of a different design, it's a little tough to reach around the corner of the box to unlatch. It would also be good if there were some sort of latch on the mid section. It springs up a little bit, as the foam wears, it may begin to leak. The tailgate did not seal well at all, but an extra piece of foam tape along the lid helped out. For new GM trucks, the use of a cover will fill the bed with dust on gravel roads, much of the interior of the bed is open to the wheel wells, and there is an open seam along the front of the bed. The tail gate gap is amazing, you can stick your finger almost all the way through."

"The cover looks great, I haven't had it in any real weather yet so I cannot comment on how tight it is! It seems amazing that four clamps hold it on so well! Mike"
