which radian cover???

love-pink · Nov 29, 2008

Ive decided to keep my regent then get a radian 65 or 80 for my son that's in the ma... Now I can't choose a cover!!?! Ive never seen on in person so I don't know what the texture or anything of any of the choices. Anyone have real life pics or have any good/bad experiences with any of the covers??
Thanks soo much!!!

I'm personally not fond of the SuperCool cover, but many others here like it. I found it snagged too easily. We have a Granite cover now, and I much prefer it. It has a fake suede-y/microfiber feel to it. The Manhattan cover is more velvety in feel. I'm not sure what the Princess feels like, but I don't think your son would be too interested in that cover anyway, lol.

I'll see what pictures I can dig up. :thumbsup:

ETA: Here's a close up of my old SuperCool cover. (Please ignore the fact it's a photo of my loose warning label.) It's not great, but maybe gives you some idea:

I've felt all but the Princess (which you probably won't be needing anyway). The granite and champagne covers (for the 65s) are like the pp said...kind of a microsuede feel. They're soft, but not super squishy. The covers that come on the 80 are a bit more squishy. I didn't like the Super Cool either. I'm not a fan of mesh, though. Maybe if I were in AZ or something, but I don't see the point otherwise. The other covers (Manhattan, Monaco (and the Princess, I believe)) are all the more plush-feeling covers. Kind of a soft, fuzzy feel. And to me, it seems like they're just a bit more padded than the 65 covers. I don't know that I'd pay that much more just for the cover, though.

If you're going to get a Radian XT, though, I have no idea what material those are. But I can't wait to see one IRL and find out!

I have a Princess 80 and 65s in both Granite and Champagne. The 2 65 covers feel exactly the same. Microsuede is a good way to describe it. I really like the texture and they are SUPER easy to clean. They just wipe right down, even poop and vomit comes right off if you hit it with a baby wipe ASAP. Yet they still feel soft and comfy to the touch. Great covers! I really highly recommend them. I personally prefer the Granite color, but the Champagne is not bad (it looks better in person than online.)
