We're very pleased with these kayak covers. They're nice quality, easy to secure, and keep bugs from crawling inside (which was primarily why we wanted them).

These covers got a perfect test on their first use... a four-hour road trip with a bad storm along the way. My goal with these covers was to keep water out of my two Wilderness Systems kayaks while they're on top of my vehicle. I learned in the past that a heavy storm can fill-up the kayaks with a ton of water, making them very heavy and hard to get off my vehicle. Even after not doing a great job of installing the covers on my first attempt, they still managed to keep out almost all the rainwater from the storm I drove through.For the money, I think the covers are a good deal and do what I want them to do. The only improvement I'd like to see would be new strap hooks that don't fall off so easily; perhaps something like a carabiner with a "lock" on it.TIP: To ensure the covers stay snug on a kayak when the strap is too long, tie several knots into the strap to shorten it until it holds the cover securely. There may be a more professional looking way to shorten the straps that need it, but the knot trick is reversible and easy to do without tools.

Easy to install by one person.
