Product Reviews : A.R.E. Truck Caps and Tonneau Covers

I originally purchased first ARE canopy for my 2014 Toyota Tundra. This review is for my second ARE canopy on my 2017 GMC Sierra 2500HD Denali. I have found the fit of this ARE canopy to be fairly accurate. The roof line feels a little short, but the installation of a rack I intend to connect to my Yakima tracks should even out the visual. The paint on this canopy is very poorly done. I have debris trapped in the paint as well as severe polishing cuts into the paint. The aluminum frame is not touched up well from the factory, so lots of exposed shiny ends on the black. Additionally, the carpet has cuts on it down to the fiberglass. ARE has been made aware of the issues and is requesting that I come back to retail location and have the top removed, crates and sent back to them for a 4-week turn around repair. Overall, I am disappointed with the purchase, but confident that ARE will make the repairs. Unfortunately, these issues are consistent with my first ARE canopy on my Tundra. That all said, I don’t think any other manufacturer would produce a higher quality product. I would likely buy another canopy again from ARE if they were the predominant manufacturer in the area, but I would also have no issue with trying another manufacturer.
