Just picked up a Lincoln Nautilus Hybrid and I am obsessed with the interior, but I have two golden retrievers who think the backseat is their personal playground. I really need to protect the leather before they ruin it. Im looking to spend under 300 bucks if possible.
Im torn between the Covercraft precision fit ones and the cheaper PetSafe hammock style. The Covercraft looks way nicer but I worry about the hassle of installing them. Are the custom fit ones actually worth the extra cash or should I just grab a generic one? Really dont want to ruin these seats...
Congrats on the new ride. Honestly, skip the custom-fit covers for two goldens. I used to run Covercraft Carhartt SeatSaver covers, and while they look professional, cleaning dog hair out of that heavy canvas weave is a nightmare once it gets embedded. Plus, with a hybrid interior, you really dont want anything that traps heat or moisture against those premium materials. I would suggest grabbing a heavy-duty hammock style like the 4Knines Dog Seat Cover Extra Large instead. It provides way better coverage for the doors and floor, which is where your dogs will actually cause damage. Just make sure to throw a dedicated rubber mat underneath if you have leather seats, because dirt still works its way through the fabric over time. Keep it simple so you can toss it in the wash whenever you need.
Honestly, skip the custom covers. With two goldens, you need something washable! I use the BarksBar Luxury Pet Car Seat Cover and it is amazing for the price.
Re: Congrats on the new ride. Honestly, skip the custom-fit covers for two goldens. I was struggling with the same issue in my ride and honestly, the heavy duty fabric wins every time for durability. I eventually picked up the 4Knines Rear Seat Cover Heavy Duty and it works well for cleaning.
