Travelers Tread RV Step Covers

Travelers Tread step covers keep tracked-in dirt and debris to a minimum in your RV. Available in 10 colors to match your RV’s color scheme, the step covers can be installed easily by wrapping the fabric around each step and securing with hook-and-loop fasten- er. Made of polyester marine carpeting, the covers can be machine-washed or rinsed with a hose. Lauren and Carol Kotaska, Good Sam product testers from Meridian, Idaho, put the Travelers Tread covers on their motorhome’s steps and had this to report: “We liked the wide range of color choices, and the accent strips add a lot to the appearance.” PRICE: $15 per step.

AutoGlym Cleaning and Detailing Products

RVers tend to be particular about the products they use to keep their RVs looking good. Our product testers are no different, so it’s worth noting that these Good Sam Club members evaluated eight products from the AutoGlym line of cleaning and detailing products, and the majority were pleased with the results. AutoGlym’s development process includes testing in cold temperatures to make sure the RV’s exterior will be protected in winter. James A. Compton, a Good Sam member from Knoxville, Tennessee, applied AutoGlym’s Bodywork shampoo conditioner on his boat and RV and told us, “Other products leave a wax film on glass that’s hard to remove, but this came off easy.” PRICE: $7.99 to $49.99 CONTACT: AutoGlym USA, 305-266-3887, www.autoglym.com

The Perfect Leash

Making sure Rover is properly restrained at the campground will give you—and your neighbors—peace of mind. The Perfect Leash eases pet owners’ worries by keeping the dog under control without causing discomfort. The stretchable polyurethane material absorbs shock, dispersing the tension caused by dogs pulling on the leash. Dog owners will appreciate the leash handle’s comfortable grip. Lynn Scott, a Good Sam member from Vista, California, fastened the Perfect Leash to her 140-pound bullmastiff and reports, “It’s easy to hold and gives great control of a large dog. Plus it’s made in the USA!” PRICE: $23.99 for the Heeler (14 inches) $24.99 for the Walker (35 inches) CONTACT: Just Ducky Products, 570-366-7316, www.justduckyproducts.com

Hitch Helper Mirror

Need to hitch up your trailer but don’t have a travel companion to help out? The Hitch Helper mirror could be your new best friend. RVers can use it on any trailer with a tongue hitch. Simply adjust the height of the pole and the angle of the mirror. Once it’s set up, the driver can see the hitch ball and trailer tongue without having to leave the seat. Good Sam product tester Harvey Funk from Drumheller, Alberta, set up the Hitch Helper and reports, “The benefits of this product are not getting dents in your bumper and being able to line up the hitch on the first try.” PRICE: $29.95 CONTACT: Premier Brush, 800-736-4469, www.hitchhelpermirror.com
