I never heard of the husky liners. I had been seeing ads in lots of magazines for the weathertech and knew I needed them with having kids. Yeah I paid a bit more than the huskies and I can't compare the two.. But I will say this. About a week after putting my weathertech's in, one of my kids spilt a larger jug of gatorade on the floor. At first I was upset, then I realized.. DUH.. I just took out the mat, dumped out the gatorade and wiped it out. Not a drop on the floor. And that little section covering the middle.. well, that's where the gatorade hit and it just ran over the sides and into the pans. That one incident right there probably saved me an hour or two of scrubbing the carpet. So I love my Weathertech!
