Review on Secure Your Truck With ISTUNT'S 5.5' F-150 Retractable Tonneau Cover by Anthony Epps

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Instructions are a joke.

To start with, the box showed up with half the material hanging out because it looked like the thing was drop kicked out of a box truck. The next thing was realizing that the cover had some plastic components broken off of it from shipping (The drain tabs to allow you to divert the water to the bed drains).Once I got into it, the instructions were useless, not legible, and didn’t even resemble the product I bought. It was like a roadmap to hell. I think it was meant to be a ‘one size fits most’ kind of booklet. The page on Walmart does have a video of two guys installing and so I followed it. After many failed attempts at assembling with 2 people, I had to get 1 more family member to help out. After 4 hours of cusing and fusing, we basically had it installed, only to find out the key lock wouldn’t unlock or function the hasp so we had to break into the tailgate to get the cover to release from the tailgate. The tailgate itself wasn’t locked, but the coiling cover was locked to the tailgate. It was a friggin disaster. So with this product, it is a couple hundred less than some other comparable products, but mine leaks, has some cosmetic damage from shipping, and has a none functioning lock.Would I buy again… Hell No. Never again.

Pros
  • ‎Manual
Cons
  • The cover is not entirely secure and can be forcibly opened, compromising the safety of stored items
