Are WeatherTech's Cargo liners any good?

[SunnySunshine]

So our family is going to be picking up our new Ford Expedition MAX Platinum sometime in April. We opted out of Ford's Cargo Protection Package because we'll have the 3rd row down most of the time and we need a mat that goes to the 2nd row. Are WeatherTech's Cargo/Trunk Liners any good? Also does anyone have any experience with WeatherTech's pet barrier? Is it any good? I heard great stuff about their floor mats, but wondering if anyone has experiences with their other products.

I have the weather tech liners in mine and have no major complaints. I also leave my third row down 99% of the time as well. I will say that my cargo liner does tend to shift towards the rear door after a few weeks. I don’t think there is any grip to the bottom side of it for some reason. I also wish they made the walls around the edges a little taller, but that’s just being picky. Strange enough, I don’t have these minor issues with the Weather Tech cargo liner in my Explorer. I have seen some other cargo liners on Amazon that basically has one piece that covers the cargo area and separate pieces that attach to the back of the third row seats. I like the idea since it would allow you to utilize the third row seats without having to remove the single larger cargo liner that Weather Tech offers. However, it would allow dirt/small debris to fall between the third row seats when folded down so I didn’t go that route. That’s my two cents.

@SunnySunshine something else I forgot to mention about Weather Tech's "HP" floor mats for the Expedition Max is that the second row and third row floor mats attach together. You can basically install those and fold the third row seats up or down without any interference. If you decide to go that route.

We have WeatherTechs for all 3 rows in our 2022 max. However we went with the Ford cargo liner. Can't recommend it enough.

Didn't know they made one of those that support folding up the 3rd row! That does seem interesting.

I've got the Weathertech liner in my '22. I keep about 2200-300 pounds of gear in the back on it. About once a week I need to remove the gear and slide the mat back toward the second row before it gets completely curled up at the door. Anyone done any fixes for that?

The Ford liner uses hook & loop along the perimeter to stay in place. I would imagine retrofitting the Weathertech with the same would do the trick (just the hook side as it will grip the carpet).

I had Weathertech in my Excursion. I never realized how hard and noisy they were, until I installed Maxliner/Smartliner mats in my Expedition. They fit perfectly and snapped down just like factory. They clean up better, have a nice sheen and seem more rubbery but still very thick and sturdy.

I had it on my 2021 limited, rear cargo was great caught everything and easy to remove and clean

I have the WT cargo mat. Solid product. However, I didn't like that I couldn't use it when the third row is up, so I went with the Ford folding cargo mat setup. I still use the WT mat when I need to fold the 2nd row and cover those seat backs as well to prevent damage with whatever cargo may need it.

Just traded in my 2024 Timberline, but we had the Husky X-ACT Contour 3-row set and they were great. Also had them in my 2018 F-150 and still have them in our Kia Sportage. Did not have their cargo cover.
Prior to those we had the Weather Tech, but found the Husky mats to feel less "plastic" and not as slick or slippery while providing the same or better coverage.
YMMV.
