Default Factory mat!!!

I have tried both factory mats and weathertech. About the same price but no shipping for a pick up at the dealer. Color match and fit is much better from AUDI plus it has a Allroad sticker on it! As far as floor mats weathertech are not even custom fit and color is way off (never again).

Default I think factory mats, with a matching cargo mat, look better and work well for most users...

except those who have to deal with alot of mud, snow and such. Some people use the Weathertech in the winter then the OEM mats the rest of the year. Alot of it is personal preferance, I think. Either way you need to vaccum the interior regularly, especially in the winter.

Got it from mats-4-less.

I also have an email from a German sales rep for Carbox saying that he can sell me some of their other offerings, like the seat back protector - for use when the seats are folded flat. We either need to order through him directly, or he can convey the correct part numbers to Mats-4-Less. I've just been too lazy to get moving on that order.

There are some more example pix of Carbox products in my pic poster.<ul><li><a href="http://www.mats4less.com">http://www.mats4less.com</a</li></ul>

I have one of those OEM mats with the velcro blocks to hold stuff. Works great, and the dog doesn't ice skate when I take turns. Does collect hair however, and I suspect it is harder to clean than the Carbox/Weathertech type. Ultimately depends on your uses. But I would either do Carbox or OEM carpet/velcro block.
