OEM vs Pooch Style dog mats
How does the one MINI offers compare to the Pooch Style Mat? I saw on the website that the Pooch Style one can be made to have the front seats barricaded from the back, which was why I originally dismissed it. The MINI one looks cool, but the Pooch Style looks much more padded.

Pooch style matts
My yellow labs fit perfect in the clubman with the Pooch style matts. I really enjoy the personal service that they give you too, as well as a wide range of choices for patterns of the fabric. I have had mine over two years and they are still in perfect condition. You can remove the pads and wash them when needed too. Great product, good service, what's not to like?

Oh wow, I might buy the pooch styles too! I used my checkered cargo cover for the first time tonight... what a PITA! Maybe it will be easier next time, now that I know what I am doing, but geez. I had to crawl around inside the car to get the thing aligned and velcroed in properly. And there is all this excess velcro that is exposed when the seats are laying down, which I foresee becoming full of dog fur if we don't put a blanket on top of it. Not to mention I was unfortunately wearing a sweater and had to detach myself from it constantly. And one of my poor dogs was so confused about getting in through the boot. He kept going to the other doors and trying to get in, I had to pick the poor little guy up.
But it did cover things pretty well. I think I will hang on to it for hauling yard stuff when spring hits, but I may be spending the additional $300 (ouch!!) for the pooch styles backseat cover pretty soon.

My Poochstyle rear seat mat arrived the other day in espresso raffia colour:

Well designed and well made. I like it better than the OEM mat/cover.

I like the OEM because it covers a LOT more of the bumper and the rear flap has zippers to protect the hatch door. The Pooch Style can fall down leaving this area unprotected. The OEM also fits the contours of the car better (duh). I'm not so worried about the padding (my GSD actually doesn't like it and our small mix doesn't care either way) so that also plays into my decision.
