Get em

I have the WeatherTech Digital Floor Mats and they fit perfect, look great, and I never worry about if they are going to catch everything. People say they look as if they came with the car.

The weathertech ones cover more of the floor (go right to the edges) and in the rear covers the carpet "bump" in the middle so are worth the price. I got OEM ones and they've been good enough but if I had to do it over I'd grab weathertech instead.

The OEM ones held up fine for me this winter. Not too familiar w the weather tech ones. The OEM ones say 'Maxima' on them and I think they're a bit cheaper.

I got the Weather Tech floor liners and they fit perfectly in front and back. Best carpet protection you can find and well worth the extra costs of other brands.

I have the Weathertech Digital Fit front+rear set in black...best floor protection money can buy. I just bought them about 3 weeks ago from autopia car-care, had a coupon code for free shipping which saved $30. Same price as from Weathertech directly but without S/H

I love my weathertech mats. They fit perfectly all around. I have the front seats, back seats, and truck. Totally worth the money!

I just went with the WeatherTech up front, in the back, and in the trunk and am quite pleased with them. The fit and coverage as others have mentioned is excellent!

I think I will go with the WeatherTech. The main reason is that I will be using them year round due to my three boys. The OEM rubber mats seem like they will be a little too in-the-way'ish.

WeatherTech!

WeatherTech, without a doubt. I have put them in my Armada and Maxima, and wife's Murano.

Yes they are expensive but worth it especially if you live in a snowy area (salt will damage the regular mats quickly), have kids or just like to quickly clean them. And yes they look great with the ride!

I would recommend buying the protectant spray. I first use a hose to spray them off then use their protectant spray to clean. Don't waste your money on the cleaning spray since I think that is overkill to hose, clean, and then protect. Don't use vinyl cleaner since it will create a slippery surface and that's no good for getting in and out.

I only bought the driver, passenger, and back row for the Max. Didn't buy the trunk mat since I do not haul very much in the Max, did but one for the Murano though.

I just ordered the front WeatherTech mats from Amazon. I will get the rear mat in a few weeks.

Thanks for the input everyone.

I am considering buying WeatherTech Digital FloorLiners too. Just curious, for those who have these in their Maximas, do they add any noise (e.g. the sounds of plastic rubbing, squeaks or rattles) to the cabin? Thanks.

I have them for the front only so far. There is no noise or rubbing or rattles. They fit perfect.

I purchased the weathertech floor liners for my front seats only (I've had the car since May and not a single person has sat in the back seat, save for me to see what it was like back there) and am very happy. They catch all the dust, dirt, liquids, etc. and are super easy to clean.
If people start using the back seat, I'll happily pony up the extra cash for the rear liners too.
They look great, are high quality, and my factory mats can stay clean so when I turn her in off lease, I don't have to worry.
My wife has some cheapo rubber all season mats in her car and they look awful. Plus, when I detailed the truck over the summer, it was obvious that liquids and dirt had been getting underneath the rubber, leaving stains and crud. Took forever to get that stuff off the carpets (there are some light stains still there).
My vote is for the weathertechs. Worth it.

The weathertech floor liners set arrived today, and I just wanted to share some pictures of how those look on our Maxima. I think they fit nicely, so so far I am satisfied with the purchase.

I agonized over spending $100 on front mats from Weathertech. When I got them and put them in, all that went away. They are perfect. I highly recommend.
