Here is my review on Amazon:
Received undamaged MostPlus soft trifold tonneau for 2022-23 Ford Maverick within a week of order via UPS. Came with 4-LED touch light (req. 3 AAA not inclu.), replacement metal threaded fasteners and knuckle for rear clamps, adhesive pads in case you need paint protection in clamp areas, adhesive weather strip for use at bed front when it is below the bed sides (not a tailgate seal as per instructions). Overall fit/finish of product is good. Allignment has front seal as far rearward as possible and rear seal still does not make full contact onto tailgate surface. At this price point you have to be willing to accept compromise and yes, I would probably buy again.
*Addition - I have since washed the Maverick with the tonneau installed - hose and hand wash. Small leak at both front corners and expected leaking at tailgate. The seal at the front and down both sides is tubular with two small edges (cross-section desc.) where they but into corners made from flat solid foam. I suspect the transition of the two types of seals when compressed is the culprit (put light inside the bed, darkend the garage and inspected). The tailgateseal has two separate flaps inside to outside edge and the inside flap doesn't contact the top of the tailgate toward each corner. With the large gaps around the tailgate there is going to be some leaking anyway. I have a Ford Maverick bed mat so that any leaks can make their way down the inside wall and hopefully under the mat and out the drain holes. The top of the mat was indeed dry, so that is how I am managing the water.
As the price of tonneau covers rise, I thought I would share my experience on what is at the time one of the lowest priced ones on Amazon.
