Pros: MOLLE for your seats! These covers have lasted over 2 years so far with minor fading.
Cons: They're only really intended for use on a Wrangler-sided seat so there is quite a bit of extra velcro on every strap (only in a Cherokee) The elastic rope that held the bottom to the seat is fine but is, once again, not meant for a Cherokee-style seat; one of the straps broke after a year and a half.
Recommended? Yes

Comments: What can I say... They look cool, they are VERY functional and they have lasted a very long time as far as seat covers are concerned. One of the pouches is even the perfect size to hold a 12oz canned beverage of the passenger's choosing (if you don't need to strap it in) or a smaller camera.

You *will* be the envy of anyone who happens to get a close-up view of the back of your seats, I know I have.

Pros: Look cool and lots of storage.
Cons: doesn't fit yj seats faded due to sun exposure velcro straps broke snaps dont snap pockets
Recommended? No

Comments: Does not fit yj seats. Also got the digicam and it turned pink from sun exposure. And all the velcro straps have broken off. Very poorly made. Called smittybuilt and no reply. Did not hold up to moderate climate weather and exposure. And it is very difficult to snap the pockets on. it seems some of the snaps dont fit.

Pros: looks are awesome. I get a lot of compliments on them. Overload on storage as they are based on the Army M.O.L.E. (Molly) pack design. Tuff durable nylon rip stop fabric. I thought that there might be a problem with them soaking up the water when it rains (i hardly keep the doors on) but water just rolls off. Now if you dont wipe the water off your backside will get wet. The velcro straps hold the covers in place and are adjustable to fit your size of seats.
Cons: I have only 2 cons. The first is trivial but a quick fix. I didnt like the way the seat flap just sliud arouind. When getting into the jeep it would bunch up and move around. So what I did was get a small bungee cord and looped it around the crease of the seat and connected it to the underside of the seat. This holds it in place. Also it comes with a bungee cord that hold the side flaps down that you connect under the seat. These break with the moving of the seat and not very well thought out. What I did was get some bailing wire and used that to hold them fast to the underside. Now they dont break or move around.
Recommended? Yes

Comments: Great looking and durable. Tell everyone to get them that ask. My wife doesnt like them because they dont COVER the whole seat. They are more like a bikini, she says they just cover the important parts. I love them and they give the Jeep a more outdoor rugged look on the inside. Also there is tons of storage that you can configure however you want, in the form of snap on velcro bags. The design it self is based on the Army M.O.L.E. ruck sacks they use.

Pros: Durable seatcovers that add much needed storage.Look awesome in a jeep.
Cons: Have to get used to the fit.
Recommended? Yes

Comments: The fit is hard to get used to because of the bunges used to keep the bottom part on the seat/Otherwise great product.Looks good ,quality seems top notch,plus it adds a very versatile storage solution to a vehicle that is known to have very little storage.

Recommended? Yes

Comments: I know they do not cover the WHOLE seat but a cheap set of set covers to put under them works too. The pockets and ability to place them anywhere you want is great. Plus I can keep all my recovry and medical supplies with me now and not worry about space.

Comments: I definitely like this seat cover a lot. Much higher quality than I was expecting. The only problem is they made it a universal fit, so it doesn't fit well on the bottom of the seat. I cut the side flaps off the bottom and pulled it through the back of the seat and clipped it inside the back cover. Now it only covers the seat back and works great.
