Hello everyone. Was hoping people would post pictures and specs of their tonneau covers. Maybe even add some pros and cons.

There's a subforum on just this topic with several reviews on different makes/models/styles already

Check out the undercover ultra or armor flex. Both are tri folds. I went with the ultra fir the smooth surface. The armor is coated with Linex. If you want a roll up look at the back revolver x4.

LEER Quadfold. Gives a little bit more room when folded. Better latching mechanism than the simply pull wire makes it harder for criminals to steal your stuff.

I like my Bak x4s. There are pictures on another post.

*edit link to post:

Pros:
Easy install
All black high-quality design. improved upon the x4 model.
Can see the rare tail light and use the bed camera when rolled up
Quality powder-coated aluminum rails front to back
Looks great
Logo sticker came right off
Super low profile
Does not take up bed space when rolled up
No prying eyes on my stuff(keeps more honest people honest)
Oversized
Through a few washes and has yet to show any leaks.
Keeps stuff out of the bed
One solid cover as opposed to 3 or 4 panels
Cons:
Where they cut vertical rails attached to the truck are rough/ looks low quality
Security is there but I feel I could get in if I wanted to rather quickly
One of my sides is slightly higher than the other by like 1/32 if that much

LoMax trifold. Very sleek and high quality

I have the Undercover ArmorFlex on mine, love it so far. The bed stays dry unless I pressure wash under the tailgate.

Armor flex. Sleek, quality material and low profile.

+1 from me for the Lomax Trifold tonneau

pros (for me):

• 30 minute installation
• No drain tubes
• Urethane finish matches spray-in bed liner
• No tools or loose parts to remove, uses quick release to fully remove
• Amazing deal out the door from truckalterations.com if you mention you are a forum member

cons (for some but not for me):

• Half inch profile (as opposed to zero profile like bak and undercover)
• No propped position against window (the Lomax Stance has this though)

Here is the thread you want where it is covered ad nauseum: https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/factors-to-consider-before-buying-any-tonneau-cover.693/

Retrax Pro MX.

Pros:
High build quality
Lockable at any position
Keeps all water out except for near tailgate if pressure washing.
Sleek and low profile
Aluminum panels are strong for strapping cargo on top

Cons:
You do lose some bed from the canister
Price

I have the Retrax pro XR and confirm the pros and cons above. another con though is that you can open the cover while the tailgate is closed and locked. this means you have to lock it with a key if you want the bed secure.

Bakflip MX4

It looks great, has worked flawlessly, and the best thing I can say for it is I have had it since my 2017 F-150, then it went to my 2019, now my 2021. In that time every one of the trucks has sat outside 24/7/365, which means it sat outside too. Between 100 degree sunny days and -20F winter nights with 8 inches of snow piled on it, and when I moved it to my 2021 it still looked like new.

I ordered some replacement parts for it before moving it because it has foam pads in a few spots, like where it would rest against the window if folded all the way up, and those were starting to come off at the edges (just on with adhesive). So $15 in some refreshed wear and tear items and it just keeps on going.
