Floor Mats Comparison Review: OEM vs. 3W vs. Husky X-act

[Pootklopp]

I was sent a set of @3Wliners Floor Mats (front and rear) for my automatic Off road double cab. At this point I have tried the OEM, Husky X-act, and now 3w floor mats.

Of the three I'm happiest with the 3w mats. Here is my opinion of each.

Material: personal preference here, but I like the rubber texture of the OEM mats the most. Husky and 3w are slightly more rigid and less tacky. But neither are so slick to be an issue for me.

Fit: OEM and 3w fit really well, they lay flat and hug the interior how I expect mats to fit. The husky mats did not fit well for me, they bunched up in areas and snagged my shoes at the edges. OEM could also snag your shoe in back since they were kinda thick.

Coverage: 3w and husky have great coverage. OEM leaves too many areas uncovered where dirt and hair collect. This is especially true in the rear with having a 2 year old and dog as my rear passengers.

Quality: OEM and 3w have the quality I would expect from a product in this price range. My husky mats were so bad I returned them after opening, they had scratches and defects in the rubber just from shipping.

Hope this helps! I haven't tried weathertec or lasfit at this point. Not sure I need to as I'm happy with the 3w mats.

Has anyone found a set for the hybrid? Every brand I’ve seen post “not for hybrid” on theirs

I just bought the currently available mats. My back seat will hardly ever be used and the rear mat will have a bump for something not there. It'll protect enough of the floor.

We glad to hear you're satisfied with your 3Wliners mats! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the fit and coverage—it really helps us improve. We hope they serve you well on your adventures. Thanks for posting on this forum and giving others a helpful reference!

Ok, so I luckily won a full set of 3Wliners floor liners and I've had them in my truck for a little over a week now. Here's what I think of them:
Let's begin by discussing the material they are made of. It is something called TPE I believe, and once you let them heat up in the yard, around noon to one here in Texas, they seemingly melt right into a perfect form-fit for your truck. This material also appears to be flexible and yet ruggedly robust at the same time. These mats do provide ample coverage, but not as much in the front as I first thought they should. However, after using them for a week I've determined that they actually do cover anywhere that my feet can reasonably reach while sitting in the truck. So, that said, they do cover everywhere they need to though I can see at first glance why someone might think that they wouldn't. If I were in charge of production design at 3Wliners, I would consider getting the front mats to reach back toward the seat just a bit more as perception in marketing often serves as reality to the consumer. This is not a criticism, just a suggestion for the sake of first impressions. The back mats are in my opinion perfect. I wouldn't change a thing there. They reach father under the front seats than your passenger's feet possibly could. Additionally, they cover the rest of the back footwell just fine. These are priced very competitively for what your money gets you and I'd definitely buy them knowing what I know now and having had the opportunity to try them out. If anything problematic should arise concerning the mats in the future, I'll be sure to add to this post and let y'all know. I'd also like to thank the people at 3Wliners for giving me an opportunity to review their product.

Thank you!

Your comment is accurate and fair. I will promptly relay your suggestions to the factory. If you have any further suggestions or opinions, please feel free to share them with us.

Additionally, thank you to all the winners for their honest feedback. I'm considering creating a collection of real feedback and addressing everyone's questions and comments on the product.

Thanks, keep us updated

I went with these mainly because they don’t curl up on the edges and are super easy to clean after hikes or beach trips. Fitment was spot on with no trimming needed.

 

[TX-BluStreak]

I hear Tuxmat are the best as they provide the most coverage but they're a bit pricey tho...

 

[Sideways]

I tried the Husky Weatherbeaters and hated them. They are too slippery and cause my foot to constantly slide while I'm driving. I replaced them with TripleALiners and have been exceedingly happy.

Good info. Any pics of OEM? I usually get weathertech in my vehicles. My Tacoma will come with OEM all weather floor liners when I get it. I have read that there is not as much coverage in the driver front with them.
