I have been using this cover for almost a year now, and am very pleased with it. It looks and fits great, and it is secure and keeps most of the bed dry in the rain. A couple of rubber trip bits have needed some improved securing, and I used a little RTV so it was easy. I drove it across the country round trip last summer and it was perfect. I would recommend this cover for a great-looking and pretty secure cover. Finally, it is easy to fold forward when it is time to haul loads taller than the bed rails.

Purchased this BAKFlip for my new 22 RAM Classic 1500. Installation went well, instructions were good to follow, and it fit perfectly. One of the plastic hold down clips had a manufacturer defect with excess plastic mold residue inside the clip that prevented it from properly working. I sent an online warranty claim explaining the problem, and a new clip was sent to me in a reasonable amount of time, and it worked fine. After one year of using the cover, I am very happy with it. Everything functions as it should, and it is very versatile. While it is not 100% watertight, I mostly notice a small amount of leakage around the tailgate seal after washing the truck. Under normal rainy weather, there is no leakage, and we get plenty of rain in the PNW. My four-star rating rather than a 5 star is only because of the manufacturer defect and the curling of one of the rubber cushions on the underside of one of the panels where the adhesive holding it on the edges has not held up under the hot weather (with the black color, when the sun beats down on the cover it gets pretty toasty inside the truck bed with the cover closed). I am thinking that should be an easy fix by applying some good adhesive and taping in place until the adhesive cures. Just haven't gotten around to doing it. Again, really like this cover. Would recommend it to others, and if I ever have a need for one in the future, would definitely not hesitate getting another BAKflip.

Love that I can have a cover on my truck while towing a fifth wheel. It folds up nice and latches to stay out of the way of the fifth wheel hitch. Then I can keep items in the back of my truck while camping and they are secure (my tailgate locks).



by:

This cover has held up well. I would buy this again if needed.
No water leaks around the cab area or the sides. Have a one inch gap at the tailgate. I have sedan expansion foam strip to help seal off the tailgate. Does well at the car wash. The sides have a water or rain gutter that diverts water out the back of the truck.



by:

I have owned this cover for over a year and it has been excellent. It keeps the bed fairly dry as expected and I have had no mechanical issues with it as it still performs like new. I would say the only improvement I would suggest is better foam weather striping for the front of the bed as the original never stuck to the spray in liner very well and eventually came lose and then I just swapped with some similar weather striping I bought locally.



by:

Overall, I am very pleased with my BAKFlip MX4. It has held up well after 1 year. It works well and looks good. It matches my matte black accessories and trim. It was fairly easy to assemble but I did have some tight fitment issues near the cab where the cover connects to the rail. I really like the security of the hardtop and access through the tailgate. Water is generally kept out, but sometimes there are water drips near the tailgate depending on the angle parked. So this cover keeps the bed *mostly* dry.
etrailer was very fast to deliver my cover, and it came in good condition.



by:

Overall satisfied with it. However, the end caps get loose and we lost one within a month. I contacted BAK manfufacturer but have not heard from them. Rather poor service.
Other than that, the only other problem is that the middle hinge often closes with misaligned plastic piece, easy to spot (hinge is buckling) and press the piece into the the rail.



by:

So after a year I am still loving this bed cover. Had the fiberglass version for my 2013 F-150 and loved it as well, that's why I purchased this one for my 2019 Super Duty, it was also the first accessory I purchased for it because I was so used to my other one and knew I couldn't live without it. I never installed the drain tubes on either covers and still haven't had water get it my bed. Also the folks at etrailer are always awesome! Thanks again!



by:

Well made cover. A lot sturdier than I thought it would. Its not full proof so water does get in the bed but it's minimal. The cover partially blocked my tool box which sit in the bed, so I removed the tool box cover for easy access.



by:

The cover functions ok. The tailgate leaks quite a bit. The manufactured edges that where cut were sharp and not painted or treated. The weather strip along the edges has already discolored/faded. Disappointed in the fading and less than ideal sharp edges. Somewhat expected leaks, but not this much. Average at best rating, especially for the price.



by:

I installed the BAKFlip MX4 in my RAM 2500 Crewcab has the 6' 1/2 short bed, drived 300 miles now. good product, open and close the tailgate without lifting up the cover



by:

Easy to install. Doesn't leak. Easy to clean, and seems to have improved my fuel mileage a bit. I am happy and would highly recommend this cover. Fits my 2018 Silverado perfectly.



by:

I am a huge fan of the BAKFlip. The installation was pretty straight forward and easy. Anybody with moderate mechanical ability can install. I think it took less than 2 hours. I live in a heavy snow area and had more than 24” of snow on it at one point and the product performed flawlessly.



by:

Cover went on easy and looks good on the truck. We put it on our 2020 Colorado which we tow with our motor home. It works great for extra secured storage. The only problem was with the rubber bumpers on the bottom and the two on top , fell off as soon as I opened the box. Not a big deal just had to use a little gorilla glue on them and all has been good.



by:

the bedcover finally came in.
Few pictures
of it installed.



by:

I really love the bakFlip cover. It locks up all my stuff when we are on the road. I really like the looks too.



by:

Great cover. Love the protection it del ivers!



by:

Solid performance. Only issue is with the glue holding the pads is failing



by:

After a year of using the cover I found that there are a few things that could be improved and you can do some of these yourself.
The knobs for the cover that actually hold it into the bed-vibrate loose. I added my own lock washers. The poles that you use to hold the cover up when the cover is raised up against the back window-they also vibrate loose-so often that I just removed them and keep them under my seat. The little u-clip pole holders for the poles when not in use-they are too weak-often letting the poles jump out or fall out during normal road driving.
The cover itself is not waterproof --it sheds water away mostly however enough gets into the bed that you can not trust your items to be dry. Bag important stuff to keep it dry.
The rear weather seal slides back and forth too easily--sometimes working itself out about 2 inches until you see it and slide it back into place--i addenda small amount of silicone to stop this from moving.
The cover is strong, looks good and is mostly what I was looking for. Unfortunately I would not buy this again-even more because you have to relocate the bed accessory rails-which then limits the items you can buy for your truck because they are designed for the rails to be in the factory positions.
My next cover will be a roll up so that it allows visibility out of the back window. When this cover is flipped up to its final position it completely blocks the rear window. When I was looking at covers-my thought was well its the coolest looking cover and I can deal with not seeing out the back window--well that has changed. It is not practical. The price is high and there are many other options out there that are. My soft roll up tonneau cover was great-waterproof and I could have bought 6 of them for this price. If one was damaged it would have been better to just throw it away and order a replacement. Sorry guys-look elsewhere for a better cover.



by:

great easy to install and looks good



by:

Love the MX4 ...Took a little longer to install but looks great...



by:

It's a straight forward assembly but photos of the assembly steps would be better than the illustrations.
NOTE: This model allows you to open and close the tailgate without lifting up the cover. The other models require you to lift the cover so the tailgate won't damage it.



by:

This tonneau cover can be installed by one person. It works great. It is water proof in the rain.



by:

I've had the cover for one year now and the cover has gone through the worst California winter weather for the last 3o years. It kept my stuff 99% dry! It's not 100% leakproof and that was expected but given the conditions esp during rainy season, it has performed above expectations.



by:

I am very happy with my BAKFlip MX4 Hard Tonneau Cover - Folding - Aluminum - Matte Finish - BAK48203.
Really.
And the service I received in its regard was top-notch. It did arrive with a non-functioning blemish but I was compensated by the company, immediately. Also, a part broke shortly after I installed it and again, the company stepped up.
As for the tonneau cover itself:
•it folds open and closed easily as advertised,
•I can stand on it if needed,
•it keeps out the rain (I've run it through car washes too, and the contents of the bed remain dry,
•it was easy to install
•I love that concern for locking the bed by closing before/after tailgate is not an issue.
