I can't say I hate any of the current ones. My least favorite would probably be the onyx and sahara, only because I don't like the fabric in the middle. I am not a huge fan of beige seats, but they do look great in cars with beige interiors.

Mossy Oak
Portland (which I own, but it was cheap)
Aloha
Jessica
Denim (but that dislike extends to everything except pants)


I don't mind my microdot tan. again, it was cheap and actually looks okay in my car.

The only 2 I can think of that I actually disliked were the Mossy Oak and the old Teddy Bear pattern. Blech!

I don't like any w/denim (I don't like anything denim besides jeans an shorts though). That window pane you posted is pretty bad. I don't like the sahara either. I know there is more...

I have microdot and i didnt get the choice of what to get
I would love a blue/grey cover but $55 us turns into $70 and then there is postage on top I can get a replacement radian cover for a great price though

I loved my Cool Blues cover (the denim/plaid). It wore well and was nice and cool.

Hated the burgundy check that was on my Expressway, and wasn't fond of the green check on the Elite (but it was the only thing it came in). The old cotton covers faded SO badly. Not fond of the new denim either - the original was much softer.

I think Mossy Oak is fug. It looks like camo and makes me think of rednecks and hunting.

My :twocents: is that it looks like camo gone wrong and then someone cut down a forest to correct it and then they didnt like what they saw and threw up all over it. It would drive me nuts having that in my back seat. I would rather the microdot anyday.

Thanks! That's exactly the look I was going for. We LOVE the camo and both of my sisters will have MA's with it in the near future. It is really soft and actually looks like camo.

FYI, I am quite proud of being a "redneck", thanks.

I guess the chemistry of it all is, that because everyone is unique and has their own opinions and values they all rate things differently.

Wouldn't it be a dull world if we all had Maddision covers ? or all black with grey Graco seats?

Good point, NZ. We all have different opinions, likes and dislikes. I think that goes without saying!

Mossy Oak is a pretty popular pattern of hunting gear... Britax is cool to get in on that (hey, if it gets some guys to buy Marathons, it rocks, lol).

What's with all the Aloha dislike?!?!? It's so sooooooft! and greenish and hides crumbs...

I didn't like any cover that faded fast... Windopane would get sweat stains where the kid's head went Or Sapphire...I didn't like that...too much like a bathtowel.

Seriously, the Aloha was probably my MOST favorite cover ever. It was so much nicer in person than in the stock photos.

And I also think Britax was pretty smart to introduce the Mossy Oak. DH does not allow anything girly in his car, and I'm sure he's not the only guy that refuses to drive around with a Brooke or Olivia MA . I wouldn't pick it for my car, but I certainly don't hate it.

Now the Brooke or Jessica - blech!
