Radian cover options

So I am totally in love with the Primrose cover on the 80SL I just got from Strollers.com. But DH wants us to keep the XTSL when it arrives, which is Bentley, and sell the 80SL.

It's not so much the pink/floral that I love (although I do like it), it's the plushness.

Do any of the XTSL cover sets have that plush feel that the Primrose has? If so, which ones?

I own an XTSL in Ventura already. It is definitely NOT plush! If anything, it's a little rough. I like it fine, I guess. But that Primrose cover has me wowed!

What are the different covers like as far as feel? It's so hard to tell from pictures!

The Flora and Bentley are plush. The Nitro and Ventura are mesh, as you've seen. I believe the new one - Shadow? Whatever it's called? - is a slick fabric unlike the others, but I'm not sure on that one.
I think Flora would be the perfect replacement for the Primrose. :)

Yeah, if you have Bentley on the way, it should be plush like the primrose.
The Shadow is a slick type feel. It's EXACTLY like the Britax Onyx. I just compared my new shadow with my onyx cover today and they really do seem exactly the same.

Thank you!! I may be pretty happy with Bentley, then. It should coordinate with our tan-ish interior in the intended car. Flora would be nice, too. I love the green. Maybe I'll keep my eyes out on the swap for a Flora cover to have around as a spare. A spare cover actually would be nice if I end up with an XTSL in each car anyway.

I'll get to see Shadow up close in a week or so because I have a Shadow Monterey on the way. :)

I have shadow which I love. No dirt showing there! Seems easy to wipe off.

I think I might get a girly cover too, maybe Petal, for our other seat. Are those dirt magnets, though? It looks like there is white on it. I was thinking of selling the Bentley cover as the color is not for me. It is very soft, though.

I have the flora xtsl and I love it. It doesn't really ever look dirty and it is plush. Also, it is SO pretty! but I love greens and blues. I like it a LOT more than the primrose as far as colors go. It isn't so busy and the shade of pink on the primrose isn't my favorite. The flora is more chill.
