The Bestop's I had on my Jeeps were far better than the factory units. I can only imagine this one would be the same. Hopefully someone will be able to do a comparison soon.
Reading reviews on the Jeep tops I found one reviewer who explained the quality difference nicely. Ford/Jeep is going to put on a top that is the quality you would expect from a mainstream auto manufacturer because they are mainstream auto manufacturer. Bestop is going to give you a top of the same level of quality as you would see on a luxury manufacturer. So its like comparing the soft top on a Mustang Convertible vs. a convertible made by Mercedes or Audi.

Curious as to how easy it is to swap between hard and bestop soft tops? From the video I saw seems like there’s a lot of little parts and brackets with the bestop. Would you be able to leave those on when the hardtop goes back on?
Bestop has a video on going back and forth on the Jeep. Didn't look too bad. I'm sure someone will have a video going back and forth on a Bronco shortly.

If you look at some of their other videos (I know, biased), they make a pretty good case for putting their top on and never going back.

I'm really enjoying the OEM softop so far. I like that it opens all the way down and has increased rear access.

In my area I prefer a softop and really the only dislike of previous softops is the lack of rear access. The OEM softop solves this.

I have no problem with the window wrinkles, I assume it's needed for the increased rear access. The wrinkles aren't near as bad in person.

I should add that I've had few Jeep Bestop Trektops and I liked them also.

Would look a lot better if it would go all the way down in the back if it doesn't go all the way down what's the point of having it
I am looking to buy this and think it goes all the way down when you take off the windows (side and back). Here is a promo for the jeep

I drove a Bronco with a Bestop during the Off-Roadeo, soo much better than stock soft top!

I am disappointed now as I just looked at all the pictures and it doesn't go all the way back like this Jeep one. I may have to wait! I think I may want Khaki even.

Always get the Twill. A manufacturer that lays claim to being the Best Top has earned the reputation. But then look at their warranty - the vinyl is warrantied for 3 years vs. the twill has a lifetime. The vinyl is 2 layers and the twill is 3 layers. The twill is far superior.

The Bronco looks so much better and more natural with a fastback than the squared off back. I wish they would do a factory fastback hardtop.
It changes the whole attitude of the vehicle. Like even with the window on when you look in the rear view it looks like you have no top back there.

It really is an improvement.

The top is aesthetically the weakest part of the design in my opinion.
