[Basset Box]

I have a SC and a Basset that sheds his entire coat weekly. And he is mostly white! I got an Elemmat for the rear and it keeps most of the hair from clinging to the carpeting. Only around the corners and chair holes. I wouldn't own an Element if it wasn't the SC. People with non-SC models (prior to 09) still need something to cover the slippery plastic flooring anyway. Personally, not a fan of the new E, very generic.

Basset Box,

So you are saying that the 09 flooring is not as slick so 09 owners don't need this?

How about the seats? Does the hair stick to the seats or are they easy to clean like the ones in the EX?

"a Basset that sheds his entire coat weekly":lol::lol::lol: That's funny!

It's allot more about being able to keep the dog hair off the seats. My Heelers are light Grey, and shed almost as much as your basset So a black interior that is hard to clean I don't want at any price.....But if they are close to equal I'm all for saving $$$$$$$$$$ and the SC is nicer looking (to me).

Thanks!

I don't know anything about the newer seats and flooring. I think they ditched the plastic floor because I thought I saw some people complaining about it on here, I don't know though. The SC seats in mine are a type of fabric that doesn't hold hair. I think some of the other trims have a more durable fabric. But the black carpeted area definitely bonds well with the hooks in the basset hair. It must be some sort of magnetic bond, very hard to separate. I just deal with it and if it gets on my nerves, I do a good interior detail. That reminds me, it's time for one! Good luck.
