Zeta Cargo cover review

I'm thinking of purchasing this product, can anyone who owns it tell me if its worth the price difference? I bought a zeta dead pedal and i was quite happy with the product.
Any feedback would be great thanks.

yah, i have the one from zeta. it's made in china. let me
give you an honest impression of the product.

fitment is good... even 'clicks' into place like the factory one.
the ends appear like it's going to fall off, but it doesn't.

the canvas is much better looking than factory.

the retract spring feels kinda cheap (high pull force) but it appears
to wind up fine. china quality.

no rattles during drives which is very welcome.

actually increased the rear ridigity of the car just like the rear strutbar.
no it didn't.

ive only had it for several weeks so not sure on durability yet. i have
window tint so i dont expect the black to fade either. my only concern
is in the summer if it would give off hazardous gasses from the canvas...
never know what they used in the dye or paints...and doubt they were
tested in automotive environments.

conclusion: yes, it's worth the savings.

Awesome, thanks for the reply, perhaps i will think about it more then. I also have tint at the back so its more of completeness for me to fill that slot as well as provide some minor protection.
I searched the zeta forum hoping to see some feedback about the cover but didn't notice anything.
China hmm, oh well, i was hoping maybe it was usa made for once but i guess it would cost more then the honda "style" one if it was made there.

Zeta also claims that their rear cargo cover is built for the US spec Fit's and that other covers bought from 'overseas' will not fit.

*NOTE: Our shade is an exact match to the North American (US-spec.) Honda Fit cargo area. Buying a shade from sources overseas will not work due to the fact that Honda Fits cars sold in other countries outside North America have slight dimensional differences in the cargo area. Cargo shades from overseas suppliers are made for non US-spec. Honda Fits.

Not to steal a sale away from Zeta but....

"COVER, CARGO Help to protect your belongings from damaging UV rays - and prying eyes - with the custom cargo cover. It's fully retractable (like a window shade) and made of color-coordinated, vinyl-coated polyester material for a great look and long life.

Fits Models: 5DR FIT, 5DR FIT-S SPORT

Our Price: 112.65" - Majestic Honda

Only $27.70 MORE for OEM Honda.

I cannot say as when I ordered, I ordered the OEM Cargo Net, OEM Cargo Cover, OEM Cargo Tray, and OEM Door Trim all at once. However, I would assume shipping would be near equal between Zeta and Honda as the item is the exact same shape and size.
