Have seen a few posts in several forums. Just wanted to start a thread for people to post what kind of floor mats and cargo liners people have bought or plan to purchase for their 2014 Grand Cherokees. Would love to hear feedback on what people think.
I tried something different with Lloyd Rubbertite because they have many colors and I like no lip on edges. I got a chocolate brown which is good match to the dark brown trim in Overland indigo/brown interior. Brown mats break up blue a bit which I like. They are all weather but aren't as rugged as weather tech type but so far pretty decent in rain even with no lip around the edge. We'll see how they do in snow this winter.
I've got the Jeep cargo liner as well. I placed an order yesterday for front mats from Lund. Should be in next week. I wanted an all weather mat that had carpet.
The factory floor mats, to be kind, are a bit on the dinky side, and with the frost interior, I don't want to be shampooing carpets every weekend this winter...
I am liking the fit of the husky weather beaters I installed in my overland yesterday. Some people don't like the high lip on the cargo liner, I find it suits my purpose of keeping sand contained.
I have husky floor and cargo mats, happy with them even though the cargo liner isn't the best fit in town! floor mats saved my life yesterday when I dropped a starbucks latte inside the car!
I've thought about a cargo liner, but I'm perfectly happy with the factory carpeted mats in the passenger compartment. I don't do off-road nor typically get into situations where a lot of mud or slush would enter my car. I also don't want the harder acoustic effect that a non-carpet mat would bring to the internal environment, either. But that's me...for folks who want or need the after-market mats to protect their vehicle, Weathertech and Husky seem to get high marks.
Lund does make slush mats lined with carpet. We've had carpet-lined rubber Catch-Alls in our about-to-be-traded Murano for seven years and they've done a great job protecting the car's carpets. Unfortunately, I've been unable to find Catch-Alls that fit the 2014 JGC, so we may have to go with Catch-Its.
Saturday, Drive to N.J. pick up our granddaughter, then northern Westchester to show the truck off to mother in law. Then take the Kiera to rye play land. I spent an hour or so yesterday fiddling with the settings. I can't find the setting to display the gear changes. Also can't find the new setting to auto drop into exit mode. Alas Kiera's legs won't reach the floor from her car seat.
I've got the Husky WeatherBeater mats, front, rear and cargo. I only use mats in the passenger area in the winter (lots of snow, salt and slush here). I like the lip on the cargo mat, keeps things contained nicely. Have previously used WeatherTech, but like the fit of the Husky's in the JGC better.
I have both the Jeep rubber cargo mat & floor mats...no problems so far. I do wish that the rear one-piece floor mat covered more of the floor where people place their shoes, but they still do the job.

Dealer told me the OEM's for '14 aren't available yet. I tried the 2013 Mats and noticed the same problem you mention in the rear set. Sales guy said he thought the change in transmission in the 2014's is requiring them to rework the rear Mats. Don't know if any of this is correct, but just relaying what was said to me. The dealer did say that the 2013 OEM was not showing as a match in the Mopar system for the 2014's... I've held off buying for now, and just put in some temporary cheapy ones.
I am looking forward to a nice drive/ time with the little scaly-wag! Like to get some driving in before I head to N.C. along the skyline Pkwy & blue ridge Pkwy. take it nice and leisurely break her in right.
I have a 2014 black on black overland. Bought the weathertech front mats and cargo liner from www.floormatsandmore.com and could not be happier. Perfect fit, high end look, and totally washable when the get dirty. I live near the beach, and these are awesome for keeping the car clean. Also bought black seat armor towels that go over the seat for when I leave the gym or hit the beach.
I installed a CanvasBack cargo liner with side pieces. It is a soft rripstop nylon piece with a zipper to accommodate the split on the back seats (it covers up the back so tht you're covered when the seats are folded.). Like it. Didn't want a rigid surface for my pampered pets.
Really torn on the Mopar, Weathertech, and Husky. The Huskys look the most durable and will hold water/snow. But I'm not sure I like the idea of the rear lip on the cargo liner. The Mopar Cargo liner looks nice, but the floor mats do not look like they cover as well. Also, looks like the mat does not come up under the accelerator pedal, and living in the snow belt, that area will have a lot of water and salt run off. Still undecided on weather tech. I am hoping to get more input from forum members before I decide.
husky front/back and weathertech/mopar cargo liner if I had to do it again, I'm really satisfied with the husky front mats, great coverage, I sort of don't like the cargo liner but I also saw here people saying the weathertech is slipery, not sure about the mopar!
i have some phone/garage pictures of the husky set here:
I want mats without carpet for one main reason. They put so much salt on the roads in the winter that it just cakes up on the carpeted mats. Still deciding on which mats to get. Hoping a few more members give their input on floor mats.
I don't think I'm ever going to let anyone in the car, ever. I can't bare to see it get dirty. Why did I buy a Jeep you ask? The headlights are so cool. LOL
I went with the Weathertech Floor mats and the cargo liner. I've had them for abt 2 months now. Perfect fit, easy to clean and look great. Overall, very happy with my purchase...
I really like the OEM Matts. Not so sure about the OEM Cargo Liner, looks like a PITA to clean. I wish the Cargo Liner was like the floor matts.
In my 2002 GC it was the reverse. The Matts were a pain to clean with deep grooves and the cargo liner was fairly flat with a deep cupped edge. All OEM.
I went with Weathertech. I have a 2014 Limited with a black interior. I bought the black Floorliner Digital Fit for front and rear and the grey cargo liner for the hatch. I like the way the grey sets off against the black in the cargo area. The Weathertech fit is perfect.
I tried the MAXFLOORMAT front/rear/cargo set from Amazon first but had to send them back. The set I received had two rear mat strips, both labeled 2011, neither fit across the rear. My guess is that the kit is supposed to include a 2011 strip and a 2014 strip. Also, the cargo mat looks really cool and is thicker than the weathertech, but it cuts the corners where the floor hooks are at the rear, so you have less area on the mat for cargo.
I had the Nifty/Lund Catch-All front mats in my Murano and loved them, but they don't have them out for the 2014 Grand Cherokees yet. When they come out, I'll probably get these for the front for the summer and use the Weathertechs in the winter.
Weathertech floor liners from m neighbors to the south in Illnoise and Canvasback cargo liner from my neighbors to the west in Minisoooda. Happy with both, especially the cargo liner as it covers the rear of the back seats in addition to the floor. Great for making dog hair cleanup bearable.
I ordered weathertech digital floor liners for the Cayenne and they arrived yesterday. I love and prefer the toughness of Mopar floor and cargo liners. The weathertech ones were thinner and did not seem like it would wear well on a Jeep. Agreed that the Cayenne will not see dirt like the Jeep would, so it might work for it. But for the Jeep, I doubt that the weathertech would wear well.
This is good to know. I also like the tough rubber of the Mopar. Its a shame that they don't give full coverage up under the front pedals -- being mats and not liners. And, until the 2014 compatible OEM's are released at least, they don't give adequate coverage in the rear cabin on the 14's. The Mopar trunk liner seems like a winner though. Don't know why Mopar haven't officially tagged 2014 onto the 2010-13 same OEM part number. Can't imagine this one will have any change to it.
