Carr Rambler Amp Cover - which one?

Do any of you guys have a cover for a Carr Rambler?
Which company makes the best fitting cover?
I have been looking at :
Studio Slips
Tuki
LeCover
D2F

I was wondering if someone with a Rambler owned one of these and if they liked it or not.

When I owned a Rambler I only had a cheapo Fender cover for it that was pretty much good only for keeping the dust off. Never felt like the amp was protected when I transported it. I currently have Studio Slips cover for my combo and work with a lot of gear covered with Tukis. Both are of similar, excellent quality and provide nice protection against scratching and minor concussions. Studio Slips has a lot of custom options which may or may not be a factor for you.

I have two D2F covers, and I'm very happy with both of them.

been using a LeCover for my Rambler for going on 10 years now - have a couple of Tuki's too for other amps - both do a great job, and the LeCover will save you a couple of bucks over Tuki

After looking at all the websites, and emailing Studio Slips and Tuki, I decided on the Studio Slips.
I bought a padded cover for the Rambler and a dust cover for the PT-1.
Susan already had the specs for the pedalboard (PT-2) so it was easy to get the PT-1 sized in. It is just 2" narrower.
I found out the difference in her cover and the Tuki, and I decided I liked the Studio Slips better. Thanks for all the suggestions!!

Why is that? He did his own research and reached his own conclusion.

I have amps with Studio Slips, Tuki, LeCover and D2F covers. All four companies make excellent products and provide good customer service. In general, I prefer Studio Slips clamshell covers for heads and cabs, and LeCover covers for combos. I have a LeCover cover for my Carr Mercury and it fits perfectly and has held to the rigors of gigging.
