I am looking for a hard cover for my F150. Since my budget is limited, I did not consider Bak or Gator.
I found several brands that fit my budget. Does anyone know any of them?

I can't help you with any knowledge about the units you listed.
However, I can tell you about the factory supplied Ford tonneau.
Our 2022 F150 came with a stock ford tonneau. It was a 4 piece hard cover.  It was very sturdy, waterproof, easy to open/close  and fairly versatile. I would have kept it and used it except that we wanted a camper shell. I don't know what the Ford msrp was, but we sold it for $500 in new condition.
You might be able to find a similar situation from a new buyer who doesn't want/need their new tonneau.
Good luck
Travel often and safe

I just opened my mail and I have a catalog from American Trucks.com
They have 4 pages of f150 tonneau covers from$432 to $1500.
There is a special catalog for f150's
hope that helps

Probably not the bargain tonneau you're looking for, but we got ours from Peragon. Two of the main reasons were (1) We could get it paint-matched to our truck, and (2) It can be removed completely to gain access to the entire bed.
