Cons:

• "Oddly, the cover came folded in half, and then folded in half again."
• "The cover is folded up and vacuum packed so there are creases in it that don't look good that eventually come out in the heat of the car."
• "It arrived folded in quarters, so is currently all creased looking on the steering wheel."
• "The way they ship it to you it's all bent up and folded and those creases seem to be pretty permanent."

• "It fits perfectly in my Honda Element - took less than 5 minutes to put on after heating it up a tad with a hairdryer."
• "The cover was easy to stretch and install over the wheel, I had no trouble working my way around the wheel to install the cover."
• "Took less than a minute too install on my 2012 Ford F-150."

Cons:

• "So once it’s on you won’t be able to make any adjustment to center it, just warn you."
• "I fought with it for a good ten minutes before wondering if it was the wrong size or I was missing something."
• "You will need help putting it."
• "It felt too thick and the texture is just weird."
• "It was, of course, a pain in the keister to get on the steering wheel."
• "It is not easy to place on the wheel but it isn't supposed to be."
• "You have to heat up before putting on steering wheel. It is impossible to place on steering wheel cold."

Fit and Comfort

Pros:

• "It's just padded enough so that it's comfortable, but not too plush to the point you feel like you're gripping a stress ball."
• "It's always warm but comfortable now."
• "The fit is great."
• "It was not too difficult to get on the steering wheel."
• "Comfortable to drive with."
• "It feels as good as a new wheel."
• "It's so comfy on my hands that I can't imagine driving without it on now."

Cons:

• "This product didn't fit my steering wheel but even if it didn't wasn't happy."
• "It also doesn’t cover a thick wheel very well and looks skimpy on it."
• "This cover doesn’t cover the whole cross section of the wheel and is not comfortable to grip due to the abrupt ending of the material."
• "It is thick and my hands are small so it was very uncomfortable to grip the steering wheel."
• "The cover only goes about halfway over the circumference of the wheel thickness which makes it feel odd holding the wheel, may take some getting used to."
• "The cover goes a little more than half way around the circumference of the wheel so the inner part of the steering wheel will not be covered."
• "Sadly this didn't fit snugly around my steering wheel (Honda Civic 2006) as it has about 1/3 of an inch space at any given point."

• "Very good quality."
• "Good quality, great value."
• "This Microfiber steering wheel cover has the look and feel of real leather."
• "No weird smells."
• "Look is very OEM."
• "Quality is pretty good for the price."
• "Genuine Leather, sharp color and really well stitched."

Cons:

• "Does seem like it might be easily scraped by something rough."
• "The white fabric material inside ripped on some parts of the cover."
• "First of all, this steering wheel cover is definitely NOT leather, doesn't smell like it, doesn't feel like it, and doesn't even look like it!"
• "I returned this because it absolutely smells horrible and like chemicals."
• "I'm not sure how long it will last because the stitching has started to come out."
• "One of the stitchings did break and hopefully this will not be an issue."
• "The feel of the cover feels really fake."
