I've had mine for a few months now and for average homeowner use the dual liner is great. Everything stays where you put it without having to tie it down. It shipped quickly, ordered on Sunday and it arrived at the front door on Thursday. Fits good, and looks good too.

Lunchbox!

To follow up, I have it a few months and it completely fits the bill for my needs. I would recommend it for light/medium duty like I use it for: hauling household-type stuff around - bikes, garden center supplies, recycling, etc. Probably not for constant heavy duty use like bricks and cinder blocks but not what I use it for.

Installation was NOT 30 min like they claim, if you factor in cleaning the bed, removing brackets, installing, re-attaching brackets and drilling holes for tailgate cover. Admittedly, I took my time - I was in no rush and had nothing else to do that day. I took about 2 hours by myself but if you hustle, I don't see why you couldn't pull it off in an hour.

Very happy with my dualliner after nearly a year and the mat will hold everything in place well.

It's my second dualliner. I love it. No way I would sand down a perfect bed to apply a spray in bed liner. And those drop in bed liners are way to slippery. The only thing I would beg to differ on is the use. Medium commercial use is fine. If you going to use it for heavy duty commerical use then I would get a drop in.

They are certainly functional, a rubber bed mat with plastic polypropylene sides (like a drop-in) bedliner. If that's all you want and need, that's great.

If you want function and beauty, a spray-on is the way to go.

I don't think spray ons are beautiful in the long term. They look very nice when they are new. Go to a few places that sells used trucks and look at the spray in bed liners after 4 or 5 years. They look beat up and very dull. I keep my vehicles for 8 to 10 years so a spray in is not an option.

It depends on what spray-on you get. Some companies offer aliphatic (UV stable) bedliners. Get standard Rhino (aromatic-not UV stable) or standard LINE-X (aromatic) and they will fade over time. Get LINE-X Premium, LINE-X Platinum, or LINE-X Body Armour and they will hold their color and gloss for many-many years. All three are aliphatic (UV stable). All the pictures of bedliners that I posted will look great 10 years from now.

The problem with linex even with the additional UV protection added is that it will still fade but just not that fast. That is why linex sell the product " LineX Renew". It is made especially for linex customers whose beds faded even with the added uv protection. Don't get me wrong, it's a great product for a specific purpose but just like anything left in the sun, the sun beats the hell out it.

LINE-X ReNew is for ANY brand of bedliner and it's a patented product. And, no, ReNew is not necessary for bedliners with UV protection.

Case Study: LINE-X Body Armour is currently being applied at Disney World in Florida because of it's superior UV stability and strength.

Aromatics have benzene rings that break due to UV light. That's what causes fading. Aliphatics do not have benzene rings and thus are UV stable. Buy a spray on bedliner that's aliphatic and your good for loooong time.
