Default Rear cargo seat comfort?

Hey guys, I know this is a opinion based question but I could use some help. I'm trying to pick out a rear cargo box/seat for my new toy and i'm stuck between two options. 1. wes deluxe L&R cargo box, 2. mad dog cargo bag & polaris cargo rack extender.

I really like the wes box from the picture, but its so pricey I wanted to know if it was worth it, comfort, durability, quality, etc. my father-in-law has the cargo bag and it felt pretty much like a bleacher pad at a sports game imo. For double the price, its hard to decide.

I don't know about the 2 you posted or the price you want to pay but we have a Kimpex Deluxe seat and cargo box on the 850 that is great for comfort with lots of storage room, well built with a brake light and padded arm rests.

I need to start downloading pictures, none yet but the Kimpex Deluxe fits great on our 1 up 850, leaves plenty of room on the quad seat and a good seat for the 2nd rider. I bought the 11 inch tall plastic foot pegs for the wifes feet and bolted them to the floorboards. We ride for hours in Utah with no complaints.

it sounds like the kimpex is a lot like the wes that I'm looking at, here is a link to it on the XP, and I'll go ahead and link the bag I'm looking at as well.

I know it's not one of the few you were looking at- but tamarack makes some real nice boxes and they have the best customer service I've ever delt with.
I bought a nice 2-up seat from them for my wife- had heated hand grips, heated seat and a 3rd brake light- they also have a real nic one with builtin speakers and Spam wordSpam word Spam wordSpam word Spam wordSpam word Spam wordSpam word  dock-

The picture of the Wes open looks like it may be built stronger than my Kimpex for the same price but if I roll over it may not make a difference. Kimpex has a solid backrest, Wes opens, don't know if that makes any real difference.
