Many covers make you remove the whole thing just to haul bigger gear. The BAKFlip MX4 folds up in sections, letting you open just what you need or secure it fully upright for total bed access. Prop rods hold the folded panels in place so you can drive with the bed completely open. The low-profile design sits inside the bed rails, keeping stake-pocket mounts clear for racks or accessories.
You don’t have to fumble with clamps or straps to lock it down. Each panel of the MX4 automatically latches when closed, and when the tailgate is locked, your cargo area stays sealed. The rear seal design lets you open or close the tailgate no matter if the cover is up or down—simple and secure for daily use.
Rain, snow, and sun are no match for its ½-inch thick aluminum panels with a premium foam core. They’re rustproof and rated to hold up to 400 lbs of evenly distributed weight. Matte black seals and a built-in drainage system help keep water out of the bed, while the scratch- and UV-resistant matte finish keeps its clean look year after year.
Instead of sitting high above the rails, the MX4 tucks neatly inside them for a flush, streamlined profile. That matte black finish isn’t just for looks—it’s resistant to scuffs, fading, and sun damage, so it keeps matching your truck’s lines without turning glossy or chalky over time.
The frame rails clamp directly to the inside of your bed rails—no drilling needed. Bolts secure the front hinge rail to the frame rails for a solid, level fit that stays put through heavy use. Once installed, it’s ready to go without extra tools or adjustments.
Ratings & Reviews
I replace a camper shell with the tonneau cover because it is easier to remove when I want to put my pickup camper on the pickup. I am very happy with the cover and am glad I made the switch.
Excellent product! Wait time was crazy but manufacturer is to blame on that one!
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.
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.
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
Great fit on a Ram 2500 long bed. Everything stays dry on the inside.
Great tonneau cover. Fits as it should.
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.
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!
BAKFlip MX4 is a great addition to any pickup. It allows for secure transport of material, keeping it dry in bad weather and yet readily accessible with the flip of a panel. It also keeps the weather away from your 5th wheel hitch. Can be left on when towing.
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.
The bed cover has been great so far. Followed the instructions and took my time adjusting it and it has been working well. Keeps the bed dry and looks good. I did have to order an extra kit to get enough rail clamps. Once I put the extra clamps on it feels much more secure. For 8ft beds they need atleast 8 to 10 clamps, not 6. The cover has been working in that I don’t have to uncover the whole bed to use it. I just need to open up as much as I need at the time.
Ordered the BAKFlip MX4 for my son on 12/15 after calling to verify the tonneau would arrive by Christmas. Then received an email that said "Your order has been forwarded to one of our partners for direct shipment to you" and never received another shipping update or any tracking info. Finally on 12/22 I emailed Etrailer.com who told me they didn't know when I would get it. The Tonneau finally arrived on 12/29, 3 days after my son returned to California (he drove his truck, 2100 miles). He won't be back till next Christmas so I have to figure out how to return this product. I had several other buying options to get this here by Christmas, but went with Etrailer because of their reputation. This will be my last purchase from Etrailer.com.
Bought it used.. I asked if it was complete undamaged.. It arrived complete including a scratch on the inside cover.. I'm glad it wasn't on the outside cover. Shipping was quick. Installation was fairly straight forward
I love how this tonneau cover works. because it allows use of almost the entire bed of the truck when it's fully open. I was a little disappointed with the clamps for installing the side rails, as they didn't seem as robust as the clamps in the cover I bought for my last truck. However, I am happy with its operation, and the fact that the truck bed is a locked compartment when I lock the tailgate.
This is the second BAKFlip i've owned they vare great,going thru etrailer is an easy process
While I like the cover, I cant find an installer who will touch the rack system I bought with it and was assured would fit with the BAKFlip. It is now sitting in my shed with the original box deteriorated as I try to figure out what to do with it.Every installer that E-Trailer recommended wont touch it because I didn't buy it through them. You need to get your installers on board with your sales policy.
All is well....except, the caps at the joints of the folds keep popping out of place. leaving unsightly bludges in the top. With some work you can pop them back in place, sometimes easily sometimes not. Overall pleased, this is our 2nd BAKFlip and would purchase again.
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.
Installation was easy, although it has never aligned perfectly. It has worked well, although it has been designed to be usable in the open position with the last panel (closest to cab) closed and the folded portion strapped into position. I bought it specifically for that so I could access my 5th hitch and tow, with a portion covered. It seems to be stressful on the cover to use it this way…all of the foam bumpers have worn off and have even put some dents in the cover. It’s a great concept, but could use some design tweaking.
Truly love my cover. Works better than anticipated. Thanks for offering great products and advice.
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.
Do you have a question about this Tonneau Cover?

I have gotten in contact with one of our installers and they suggested that if those components are popping out, they should be able to be glued in place.
