“Best cover period”

Phil R.
3/24/24

I've had MANY car covers over the years. All of them either did not fit, were too big or leaked a little or a lot. The sealskin cover is light, 100% water proof and with the draft straps across the bottom works perfectly, doesn't blow off in wind and kept my jeep dry and secure. It was exactly the size it needed to be. I'll have to order a custom cover to fit over my roof rack. I'm 100% pleased with the cover.

“Monster Truck Cover”

Dale V.
3/14/24

Bought for a Hyundai Santa Cruz. They don't list Santa Cruz. So the Expert gave me a discount and they sent me a cover for a Monster Truck! 4 ft to long in the back. No tabs to tell you what end is what! Pain in the $#*! to send back. They want to bill you 18% for sending wrong cover. Never Never Again. Told them to change name to Orca Skin closer Fit.!

Received initial cover but was a bit short in length. Car was a 1971 Dodge.

I contacted sealskin and was asked how short was cover. I said just 1 foot. They sent me a return postage sticker and I boxed up/returned cover.

About 10 days later I received the replacement cover and it fit perfectly and it's awesome.

The soft inside with waterproof outside and elastic ends fits and protects the car better than I could have hoped.

Great product great customer service.

FITMENT F-
It might fit a torpedo or submarine but it does NOT fit my classic car. I ordered by YR/Make/model and measured length to be sure. Will not fit over the bumper corners yet has excessive material in the front and rear centers. Sides are partially uncovered because not enough material for cabin roof.

My order came earlier than expected and it has been raining here so I had to wait for a break in the rain to try the installation. They really were custom made for my 2004 BMW 330ci convertible. I got everything on and hooked up and will adjust them more after I break them in. Pretty straight forward process. Seems like they are well made from quality skins! I love them!

We ordered a cover for our new Ford Edge in blue. It is a very nice cover. It fits well, it is a little baggy in the back and has a gap behind the front wheels that would flap in the wind. I used a strap from a previous cover to close the gap and it worked well. The cover is very good protecting the Edge from the rain. After three days of rain I took the cover off and the car was clean and dry. Have not tested its ability to protect from hail and hope not too.

Very pleased with the product ! The overall shopping experience however was not so good. I had to call several times to before my product actually shipped, this required several weeks and the tracking system was poor at best. I would guess due to the package having never been picked up for shipment. I would highly recommend the product but their distribution system needs work.

I "ordered" this Car Cover for a friend. He wanted the Deluxe, saying he feels more comfortable with that one. In Texas. Cars need Hail protection, so far he's satisfied.

Package came for my Mercedes very quickly but before opening I made a rash decision to sell the Mercedes and buy a. BMW. Not sure the car cover would fit the BMW I contacted Seal Skin Covers to ask what I needed to do: send the cover back or open it and try it on the BMW. I was told it should fit the BMW but if not or I was disqualified with the fit to return the cover. It fits perfectly and I am very happy with the cover,

Multiple cover did not fit my car. Customer service was terrible. Every time I had to send the cover back for an exchange I spent $20 shipping it. After the 2nd cover I receive and it didn't fit the car I just wanted to be done with them. Lost 18% when asking for a refund plus whatever else I spent on shipping. Never again.

Slow but OK in overall. I hope Seal skin will honor their life time warranty on the cover I bought.
Thanks.

The cover is great, fits well and protects my car from the sun and weather.
The free "Storm Proof Straps" do not stay snapped to the cover. They just pull apart easily.
I replaced them with bungee cords.

I bought a seal skin car cover, the best they had. Paid good money. They guaranteed the fit, mine didn't fit. Nothing about semi custom fit. Wanted to return it, they hit me with an 18% restocking fee. Do yourself a favor, go elsewhere. Bad experience overall

Excellent cover and coverage. Easy strap hookups. I also bought the umbrella stand to hold up cover, worked very well.

My order came in a fast delivery time and I was very satisfied with seal skin products. They know what they're doing and it's a perfect fit. I would recommend them to friends and family.So much easier than using a tarp system. Well worth the money

The material seems to be very sturdy but was not happy that it does not have any kind of cinching on the bottom. Although this cover appears to be very water tight, it is not breathable and has no vents. My boat had some moisture in it and the carpet, cleats and seats are very wet after only being covered for 3 days.

The cover selected was of good quality nice and thick, 5 yr warranty you can tell it is going to last. Fast delivery and easy to put on. I would recommend to anyone who wants a quality boat cover at a reasonable price... thumbs up.

First Pontoon cover received was the wrong size after approximately 3 weeks. The second was the 20' I originally ordered, to small, after another couple weeks, and I was told there were no other options, I was done with them regardless! On top of that, I was charged an 18% return fee for a Product that did not fit, even though the Seal Skin site clearly says, Guaranteed Fit.!
Just Another on line Hack Company taking advantage of the Hard Working People!

This issue has been resolved. The customer service was extremely helpful. I would recommend this company.

Tip for consumers:
This is a garbage product and return for a lifetime warranty is a farce as to how it is done for the consumer.

I bought a sealskin cover for our new purchase, a 2006 Pontiac Solstice, and the wrong size was sent.

After a brief conversation, sealskin was quick to remedy by sending the correct size cover.

I have numerous cars with many different types of covers and sealskin does exactly what it says it will do…. Keep the vehicle dry

Thank you for all the support and product

Bought it for GLE 350. Top rear have a lot of extra space. Skipped some stitches, it has holes, and after about 6 months, it produce white powder on the inside.
Called customer service when I received the product about the hole, stitches and that they sent me wrong cover model, they are asking money for restocking fee. It is so much that you can buy new cover.
Their warranty is there, but they charge you, even though it is a product defect.
You can go to seal skin review in Facebook and see how many people got screwed. I questioned how reliable is the review here. Way too many stars.

Tip for consumers:
Please, I am begging you. Before you buy from this company, do a research. There is a bunch of people got screwed in Facebook for so many years. I am surprised, the company is not shut down... I guess nobody care being screwed.

Sent wrong item, cover have a hole. You pay $35 processing fee and shipping to them at your cost

Title says it all.
No other company accept replacement and you have to pay shipping at your cost and on top if that $35 processing fee.

Really? It was not properly made to specific car. There are some extra spaces on the back and front. This was for other car.
Also missed stitches, there is a hole where the stithes are. When you let them know, they refuse a return.
When you claim warranty, you send back with your cost, you also pay $35 for "processing fee"
It was not clear if you also have to pay the shipping back to me.

Tip for consumers:
Do not buy from this company, go to facebook and search seal skin cover review, you will see almost 100% unhappy customer there.

BUYER BEWARE! Purchased a cover with their recommendation on fitment and they sent wrong size. Replaced with wrong size. Now claiming I have to pay 18% restock fee to return because they don't have my size. By the way, I had told them originally exactly what I have, upgrades done and accessories on it and yet they still failed to deliver the proper fitment and making me pay for their mistakes. To top it off, customer service is just a bunch of sales people taking money. No help whatsoever and only way to address problems or concerns is through email. No management in sight, no supervisor, no corporate complaint number.

None. The car cover they recommended was too small. They replaced it for another small one and this was all their recommendation even after I told them everything about my vehicle. 15% restock fee to return even though it was their fault. No ownership of their own mistakes. Can't get hold of management, supervisor, corporate or anyone besides one customer service rep who response typically once a day.
