Best all-weather floor mats for a Buick Encore GX?

Question

What are the absolute best all-weather floor mats for a 2024 Buick Encore GX because I am honestly stressed about ruining my new light-colored interior? I just picked it up and the carpets are that Whisper Beige color and with the rainy season starting here in Seattle I know they are gonna be trashed in like a week if I dont do something fast.

I spent hours looking at WeatherTech and people say they are the gold standard but then I saw a bunch of recent reviews saying they start to curl at the edges or they feel too plasticky and slippery when wet. I also looked at the Husky Liners but they look kinda industrial or like something you'd put in a work truck and I want something that looks a bit more sleek for the Buick. My budget is around $200 max but I really need them to arrive before my road trip next Thursday so I am on a super tight timeline and cant afford to order the wrong ones.

WeatherTech (worried about curling/fit)

Husky (too bulky?)

TuxMat (look nice but maybe too expensive?)

Has anyone actually tried the official ones from the Buick accessories site? I heard they fit the floor pegs perfectly but I am worried they dont have the high walls to catch all the mud. I just dont want to deal with the hassle of returning stuff through the mail if the fit is off...

Unfortunately, factory liners underperformed for me. Do you have the Bose audio system?Tip: prioritize total coverage. Check Smartliner Custom Fit All-Weather Floor Mats for a budget-friendly fit.

Building on the earlier suggestion, I actually have to disagree about settling for the budget brands. If you're really worried about those beige floors, saving a few bucks on a thinner material is a recipe for regret later on.

Look for high-wall liners from liquidators or overstock sellers instead of buying the cheapest retail option.

Consider checking forums or local groups for people parting out their leased vehicles. The weather in Seattle is no joke though, I used to drive my old Buick Regal through those coastal storms all the time. I remember one trip where the fog was so thick I could barely see the hood ornament. We ended up stopping at this weird roadside museum that was just full of old telephone poles and insulators. It was honestly fascinating how much history is in something as simple as a piece of glass on a wire. We spent way too long there and missed our dinner reservation in Astoria. Anyway lol sorry kinda went off topic there.
