The first thing you should know about the etrailer tonneau cover is that it doesn't have Bluetooth, or any other unnecessary feature found on many of the other national brands' over-priced covers. When we decided to offer an etrailer hard, folding tonneau cover, we knew we wanted to keep it simple, to offer a quality cover that looks great on your vehicle and leaves money in your wallet. And because we aren't baking the cost of a national ad campaign into the price of our covers, we were able to do just that. The etrailer hard tonneau cover is a well-built, folding cover that will keep your gear dry, protect it from theft, and look great doing it. All this for less than some of the competition's soft, roll-up covers.

Ratings & Reviews
Seems a solid and well-built product, especially considering the very good price. Only weak point might be the system used to fasten the rails to the bed, which, on my Chevy with the factory plastic bedliner, anyway, leaves them feeling slightly wobbly. This is very much the nature of these "no-drill" systems, though, and so I don't much mind that I will probably end up screwing or bolting the rails to my bed. To be clear, it works fine as it is. Nice product!
Does exactly what I needed. A cover that is secure, dry and at a fraction of the cost of others. If you want flush this is not for you. But that did not matter to me.
Love it so far after 1 year.
The quality of the cover seems to be there but installation could have been easier. Installed the distance between the rails was a 1/4 inch too narrow and the top would not close. The brackets which were completely different from the ones in the video had to be modified to get my 1/8 inch on each side. Also the were no spacers and brackets to lock down the forward section. Once I modified everything the cover fit and looks great. It would be nice if the installation video included the current brackets which do not work as constructed. I would suggest you try to install the new version of the brackets.
So far the Tonneau Cover seems fine, and a great value for the price. My review is largely for the cover. With appropriate instructions it should take less than an your to install.
Unfortunately the instructions are inaccurate and the video is out of date. The video is fairly close, I would recommend following the video and ignoring the printed instructions. The bed rail clamps have changed since the video was made and a couple of the cover features are a little bit different.
Trying to follow the printed instructions cost me an extra 3 hours. I suspect the instructions were written for a different vehicle and mistakenly reprinted for a 2026 Tundra. The first step is to remove the bed rails and then insert spacers to lower the bed rails. The included tool to remove the rails is the wrong one (allen not Torx). I had to run out and get a tool. Then after removing the bed rails I discovered that this instruction step was incorrect. I had to remove the spacers and reinstall the bedrails. Very frustrating, as you can imagine.
High Quality feel and materials. Fit was perfect for my Tundra. Read the installation instructions thoroughly before installation. Extra parts come in the box to adapt to different type installations. Separate the parts you need and it installs as directed.
My new tonneau cover fits great on my 2019 Chev Colorado. It was easy to install, easy to engage with the latching and sturdy when closed. I'm happy with my purchase and recommend it anyone considering this product.
There a rolled rubber seal on the back panel, does it stay inside or do you roll it out?
I purchased this because the Bakflip I had extended too far into the 5'9" bed of my Sierra when folded, and interfered with my fifth wheel hitch. I was skeptical of the etrailer brand, but found both the design and construction superior to the Bakflip. I especially like the straps on the latch release of each section. I took off one star because the latches on the rear-most section do not consistently catch, but this has not been a problem.
For the price, this has been a nice cover. I have had it more than a year now so I have a few thoughts. First of all, the installation was simple and straightforward. The cover itself isn’t too heavy and I was able to put it on by myself. The butyl tape came in handy because on my truck, I had a 1” gap on both forward corners and the tape sealed them up tight. At first, I had trouble with a couple of the side latches staying latched. What I discovered was my truck had a bent side rail where something heavy had been dropped on it. Once I figured that out I was able to add a shim between the attached side rail and the truck bed rail that raised it just enough for the latches to stay latched. I also like that I can leave the cover on when I hook the 5th wheel up to it. I’m using a Gen Y Executive hitch and I have plenty of clearance between 5th wheel and cover. The Tri-fold system is nice and it has straps that secure it in the open position when going down the road.
I do have one negative comment. The rear seal between the cover and the top of the tailgate is so tight that the tailgate won’t open on its own, even with the auto open feature of my truck. I don’t see any way to adjust it to take the pressure off so I’ll just have to live with that. All in all it’s a great tonneau cover and it suits me perfectly.
This is exactly what I was looking for. Form, fit and function are excellent and the installation was easier than what I had anticipated. All for a fraction of the cost of getting a similar product installed by the Toyota dealership. My only issue is that currently 2 of the 8 latching mechanisms are not catching the side rail when I close the cover. I suspect this requires an easy adjustment that I haven’t taken the time to figure out yet. The cover sits flush and secure to the truck bed side rails so I’m sure I can figure this out.
This cover has worked flawlessly.
It has kept the bed dry in all but the heaviest wind blown rain. Better than any other cover I have had
I just finished installing the bed cover on a 2026 Tundra. The product itself is hard to complain about; seems to be good quality, time will tell. The instructions and the etrailer video leave a bit to be desired.
Thoroughly appreciate everyone I spoke to at etrailer and the quick shipping and fantastic pricing. That being said, maybe take a few days and give the instruction sheet a good look.
All this being said, the vague assembly instructions sheet was certainly not enough to keep me from buying this again. Looks much better than many more expensive covers.
It took about 1 Hour to put on looks good great
Love the way it looks and it was super easy to install.
This is an excellent product and value. The installation was easy and the fit is perfect. This product is very reasonably priced and looks great.
So far so good. Easy installation. Time will tell how well it keeps water out.
Seems to be an excellent product for the price, and was very easy to install. This appears to be the etrailer clone of a more expensive brand, and that’s fine as long as the quality is there. Time will tell how well it holds up.
Good instructions and fit well without fussing to much.
Keeps inside bed dry and flips open enough to hook up the 5th wheel with completely removing. So far very happy
Installed on a 2024 F-250. The install was very straight forward and easy to
understand, especially with the install video eTrailer provides. It fits well
and looks good. Took me about 1.5 hours to install.
