I have weather tech digital liners in all my vehicles. I love them. I have used all sorts of mats and by far the weather tech are the best (imo). I like the digital liners because they are made precisely for your vehicle. The fit is perfect. They fit in like a shell and catch all dirt, mud, snow, etc. I got them for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd row plus the cargo liner for behind the 3rd row. Very happy with them. I also think they look great but some people don't like the look of plastic mats and prefer a more plush look. I have children so plush carpeting on the floor=bad

I've been happy with my canvasback cargo liner. It's fabric, so wouldn't consider it for some situations, but for what I do it works great - tailgating, dogs, luggage, etc. I like that it supports the 3rd row up or down without any extra work.

i also use canvasback. in fact, i had it on my X164 and just moved it over. so it's been the best value!
canvasback is the ONLY solution that can accommodate all 3 configurations of 3rd row seats. both up, both down, 1 up/down. other liners might come in 2 parts and you have to store the 2nd piece when you are using the 3rd row.
i have my seats down /up a lot for various reasons. when i don't have a lot of cargo i usually have one or both seats up to prevent bags (groceries, lunch boxes, etc.) from rolling around all over the massive trunk. sometimes i have one large item so i put one seat down and leave the other up.
it is extremely easy to wipe clean, vacuum or even use a broom to clean out. one time i bought some 6' tall plants and dirt got everywhere - a quick broom and it was clean again. dogs, wet clothes, sand, etc are all very easy to clean up.
here are some pics. sorry they are so washed out
