Anyone have experienced the high end car mat (Trapo, Enzo, Dodomat) before? Justify for their high price in term of quality, reliability, longevity? Out of the 3 brands which one is better?
Expensive Car Floor Mat worth it?

I using Trapo Hex.
My opinion is since mostly flat rate across the board for big car to small car (YES, a mat for Kancil costs the SAME as for a CX9!) if for large car, worth it. If for small car (B segment and below), not worth at all. |

Overpriced mats which makes your car interior floors looks closer to a taxi. After a while, the mats goes out of shape and no longer flat when you remove it (for washing). If you have a nice car, go for carpet mats or manufacturer brand official mats. sam93xxxxx, waters, and 8 others liked this post

I had the 3M mats from Ace Hardware bought for about rm150 for front and slightly less for rear for my Swift.
They are very long lasting (7 years now) except the driver's side which had a hole in the center eventually (5 years). So I got a Trapo just for the driver's side. No complaints |

QUOTE(Jennypenny @ Mar 29 2022, 12:04 PM) Err no. Better quality mat can last long and also easier to clean. You get what you pay for. If you want cheap, it's fine to use also. If you don't mind changing more frequently and harder to maintain. I am using cheap mat and I am fine with them looking less "expensive" and cleaning it more often. |

Out of the 3 brands which one is better? I don't think they are considered high end car mat? Trapo and Dodomat are relatively cheap, only 200+, most good rubber mat without plastic smell like Ecomat are around this price also. Even more expensive Trapo Hex also 400+ only. High end mat is like 3D Mat. They are easy to take care. The sands mostly trapped, it is very effective. I don't really wash, simply pour the sands away. It is easier to clean than the curly hair rubber mat that little stones tends to get stuck. The drawback is the dirts will be exposed, whereas curly hair rubber mat hide the dirts even if you don't clean them for a year. Carpet mat is very hard to take care in Malaysia especially rainy days. This post has been edited by constant_weight: Mar 29 2022, 01:03 PM |

I don't like flat mat but those curved up on the edge so that it trap water spill better.
I'm using 3D Maxpider. |

car mat like enzo, dodo, trapo are way more easier to clean and maintain. 3D mat is crazily expensive, im not sure what more can it offer more than the mid range one. As for those cheap maggi mee mat, no thanks, good at trapping dirt and stuff, hard to clean, hard to dry, good for bacterials to grow and thrive. As long as the car mat can be fixed into position, and not move around and no risk of blocking or interfering with brake and gas paddle it's ok. ungka and constant_weight liked this post

QUOTE(abubin @ Mar 29 2022, 01:24 PM) Lol... sorry bro. I just thinking got people use 3D Mat or tailored made with price 1.5x - 2x of Trapo/Dodomat, those are most premium. So I conclude Trapo is middle class |

Trapo is shit, glorified overpriced rubber mat. Easy cleaning yes, but before you clean, all the dirt and sand is kinda in your face screaming for you to clean them, making your interior look cheap or overused/taxi interior. driftmeister liked this post
