Hi, Matt with etrailer, and today we're talking about the line of etrailer soft roll-up tonneau covers. And this is gonna be on our GMC Sierra today, but this is going to come in multiple variations or fits, so what I recommend doing, is just plugging your vehicle's information into our fit guide to find what's gonna be the best fit for you. This is gonna be a soft roll-up tonneau cover, and you're mainly gonna have two types, and you're gonna have your hard tonneau covers and your soft tonneau covers. Your hard tonneau cover is gonna be more for security. So if you have anything really important in the back, this would keep those items secured so no one can access them. While the soft tonneau cover like we have today, is just gonna keep things more out of sight and outta mind.
So, I'd recommend keeping things less valuable back here, but it's also gonna be a lot easier to work with, being able to roll it up completely, save a little bit of extra space, and it's still gonna give you a lot of the same benefits giving you a clean finish on top of your truck, and we're gonna help you with that fuel economy too. This is a roll-up style, (tailgate thudding) so, how that's gonna work is you're just pulling these levers, (cover thudding) and release this. And since this is soft too, (fasteners scratching) it really binds into itself really nice. (fasteners scratching) You really start to notice it at the very end when I have it right here next to our truck, or the cab of our truck. And how that's gonna operate is when you have any boxes, maybe you wanna push all the way back here, this is gonna have the ability to really push into itself.
So if you are a little crammed for space, you should should still be able to maneuver this a little bit. And you're gonna secure this down. You have a couple buckles that you'll just wrap it around and secure to the other side. And this is how it's gonna be when you're in the open position, (buckle clicking) and you can tell this gives you a really good fit. I only have one one on right now, but I'm not worried about securing this at all.
(buckle clicking) And if you need to tighten it down a little bit more, if you've noticed things have shifted a bit, you can just adjust these buckles and give this a tight fit. If you are looking at soft tonneau covers, you're gonna have two choices. You're gonna have those fold-up options and you're gonna have those roll-up options. Both of them are gonna give you that protection on the back of your bed from any elements from outside, like rain, and they both are gonna give you more of a clean finish on the back of your vehicle too. Now, one of the major drawbacks to a fold-up tonneau cover is you're only gonna have two thirds of your bed that you can really use or access.
The roll up tonneau cover really solves that issue because it's gonna be able to roll up into itself, giving you a lot more bed access. And it's really my choice of a roll-up tonneau cover, because like I just said, it's gonna give you more room. We can take a deeper look at how this is all gonna work. So we're gonna have these clamps that are gonna attach your rails, to your bed rails. And what I really like about these clamps is they don't require any tools. It's just a knob on here (knob clicking) that you tighten up. And so if you ever needed to remove your entire tonneau cover, you wouldn't need any tools to do that. And how those rails are gonna sit on top of your bed rails, if you notice at the very back, we're gonna obstruct our stake pockets just a bit, so if you are wanting to use these, this might be an issue for you, so definitely reassess what accessories you have. And right next to that, we're gonna have this tensioner. I'm a big fan of this tensioner because with a vinyl tonneau cover, it's eventually is gonna start to stretch, that's with any soft type of tonneau cover. So what this does is you can adjust this really easily to help keep that tension on your cover. And you can really see what I'm talking about when I start to unroll this, (cover flopping) because right now it looks pretty loose, you can see a lot of wrinkles in the tonneau cover itself, but once I get to the very end, the way this is gonna really seat into (tensioner clicking) that tensioner, it's gonna tighten itself up. Removing all those wrinkles. Giving you that more smooth look on top. And afterwards, just come back through the sides and apply pressure to the hook and loop system we have on our bed rails, so we can really secure our tonneau cover to the rails. I know I talked about this being weather resistant, so let me show you what I'm talking about. So we're gonna have this rubber seal at the very end of the tonneau cover that'll press up against your tailgate. And next to that we're gonna have these foam gaskets on our corners, along with some additional padding going down the sides. And one of the things I really like about it is we're gonna have these aluminum rods that go all the way across, and kind of makes this bow up a little bit, and that's gonna help with water runoff so you don't have it pooling on top of the cover. Now no cover is completely waterproof. You're always gonna get a little bit of water getting into your tonneau covers, but I think for this one being a soft tonneau cover, it's gonna do a really good job with it. This is actually one of our coworkers, Dan's truck, and he's been driving around with this tonneau cover for a bit. He really likes it, especially with the amount of water it is keeping out. And it is flapping around in the wind just a little bit, but that's gonna be something you face with any soft tonneau cover, 'cause as you can see, just that material is just gonna wanna really move to any high winds you drive through. But that's pretty common with any soft tonneau cover. And honestly, I think the soft roll-up tonneau covers are gonna do most people just fine, because if you are just looking for that basic weather protection, this is gonna get the job done. Well that's just a look at the line of etrailer soft roll-up tonneau covers. Thanks for watching.

Soft tonneau cover protects your truck bed and cargo from the elements. Rolls up for full truck bed access. Durable, matte black polyester and vinyl provides a clean look. Manual tension control helps to maintain a tight fit.I've been testing this tonneau cover for the last couple of months on my 2023 GMC Sierra. I've been impressed with the quality of the construction and the usability. The biggest thing though has been the peace of mind. We're currently building a new house, and I've had everything from power tools, unfinished furniture, and light fixtures under the tonneau cover during some torrential spring rains and have never had an issue with anything getting wet. Big relief when you're spending so much money and effort on the project not to have to think about the weather! 100% would recommend!
I'm giving 5 stars, because I knew what I was buying.
etrailer was awesome. The ordering and shipping process was seamless, I received several emails regarding the status of my order, and it was on my step when they said it would be.
As for the product itself, I did not have unrealistic expectations about buying a $200 tonneau cover. I just wanted something to keep the majority of the elements and prying eyes out of the bed of my truck. This cover does that. If you are overly obsessive with appearance, spend more money. The cover itself is straight and neat, but the fit and finish isn't. The lines of the cover do not sit with the lines of my bed. I had to scoot it rearward almost 2 inches so the cover would extend to the top of my tailgate. The weather stripping is just barely on the top of the front bulkhead and tailgate. I thought at first I may have received the wrong cover, but I made it work. I expected to need additional weatherstripping if I want a weather tight fit, and I was right. But as I said earlier, I knew what I was buying. This truck is 6 years old and over 100k miles. This cover will do what I need it to do without spending too much money.
