BDK PolyPro Car Seat Covers Set, Red/Black

جيده و تادي الغرض لكن ليست بالكسوه الفخامه

Review applies ONlY to my experience with installing these seat covers on a 2024 Toyota RAV 4
Pros-price point, does not smell like chemicals, customer service responds quickly to emails, passenger seat cover fits just fine and was easy to install. Fabric is comfortable. Poured capful of water and it soaks in but it still felt dry under the cover.
Cons-Driverside cover is difficult to secure under the seat, but not a deal breaker for me. Headrest covers all the same size, so it’s baggy on rear headrests and there were only 4, so I did not cover the tiny middle headrest. Seat covers are secured behind the tear seat, but that is not possible with the rear bucket seats as the fabric is sewn to the back and runs down thru the trunk. Customer service responded quickly to my 2 emails but I was advised to unhook the back cover (it’s sewn in) and then advised that their customers often just tuck the edges in instead. That did not work for me with passengers and dogs, seat cover was messed up in a day. Seems to attract more dog fur than regular seat but, if you consider that “grooming”, that would be a plus.

Appearance is fine, no smell, box arrived damaged but product was intact in a plastic bag, don’t forget to note the instructions about the front airbags when installing. That’s important!

First off, I did not end up using the clips. I mainly have the trunk down because I am a fur-mom x2 (no 2 legged children); except for the neighborhood kids I take to church on Wednesday and Sunday, then the seats are back up in the sitting position.

Back to the clips! Seeing as I have the seats down and pups in the back (American Staffordshire Terrier and Blue nose pit) I didn’t want them walking on them, so they don’t hurt the paws or snag on the felt interior. Also, the last picture I put a trunk cover down and didn’t want that torn.

For the non-dog car rider people these clips go at the end of the elastic and it was tough for me to pull the elastic under the crevice of the seat and trunk then stretch and clip. One end is the loop the other is like a tighter L-shape and I would use pliers and close them into each other to fasten more securely. The clips work but not sure how long it will stay and not pup moving the seat from up to down position. Therefore, I secured mine with zip ties! They seem to fix it all just like electrical tape! j/k. The zip ties wont hurt the pups paws; I could give it more slack in the stretch attachments that come on the seat covers and it doesn’t feel so tight that it is gonna rip them.

To be honest; that was my hardest part. Getting the backseat part on and then making sure they were nice and snug around the back part. Oh, and the front seats have a velcro snap to secure under the seat. Have to go under both sides of seats and feed them through the seat adjuster then velcro it.

The part about removing the headrest and cutting small holes to fit the headrest back over and also cut holes for the seatbelt snaps was easy. For the head rest cut a small pinch out about the size of a dime and that is perfect to fit it nicely. The seat belts about the size of a quarter and you can wiggle them through and if it gets too tough just cut a tad bit more and they fit nice.

My front seats look a little baggy in the picture because I have arm rest on my seats. I am going to got back and do the same like the headrest. I will remove the arm rest; pull the car seat cover into place taunt and then cut a small hole and put the arm rest back on. I was just getting tired and the rain was coming. Otherwise you could just cut a vertical line long enough to slip around the arm rest bar and down to the bottom of seat but that could be a lot of material cut versus a small size dime hole like the headrest.

I also purchased the product for less than the NEW price. I picked the like new for about $13 dollars and they look brand new? I don’t know if it was because the box appeared opened then taped back but mine look brand new and had no cuts or tears in them. What a deal!

Item arrived quickly packaged nicely with no damage. Again, budget friendly for my fixed income disability budget. Seats are protected from dog hair and a quick spill of a drink if it happens. Got them in my favorite color too! Very pleased; would order again.

When you have kids even the slightest bit of extra protection for the seats is useful. I knew these wouldn’t be super high quality because of the price, but honestly I was surprised, in a good way, with how good these were. Since they’re universal, you have to cut holes, stretch, push, adjust until it fits your seat. For $25 that’s worth it. My 2024 Kona has a driver power seat so the velcro strap wouldn’t work. For the front passenger seat there were too many metal bars underneath the seat to use the velcro strap and I wans’t worried it may rip it. Even then it fit pretty snug after I make some adjustments. Cutting a small hole for the seatbelts helps keep the covers in place on the edges. In the back seat I was able to put the bottom cover on with no issues, but was not able to put the back cover on. The back cover requires you to be able to pull the cover in the crease where the bottom of the seat and the back of the seat meet, which is nearly impossible in the new Konas. Not to mention there are car seat hooks in the back so it would require over a dozen holes to be cut in that cover alone. So, it wasn’t worth the trouble and I was more concerned with the bottom cover. No issues at all with the headrest covers.

A small gripe is the material that it’s made of. Any clothing that rubs against it makes a “sandpaper-ish” sound that is louder than against the regular seat material (in my car at least). Just a personal ick, but again, this was purchased for the protection not for high qualtiy material.

It looks great and matches the rest of the car so it blends in well. This is only Day 1 with the covers installed so I will update if I find any other tips or gripes throughout my use.
