Soulo or Unna?

[Rob A]

Yea I do know what I think, but I'll always listen to other peoples experiences.
Which, and why?
Does anyone know whether the red and green fabrics are identical?

Thanks.

In a 4-season tent, a vestibule is absolutely mandatory (for me at least) so I'd never consider the Unna (I know you can unclip the inner to make a vestibule, but I'd always want to use the vestibule, so I'd always want it to be there).

They weigh the same, and have the same footprint... so ultimately it's down to whether you want a bigger living space, or a genuine vestibule. The living space in my Soulo is fine for me.

No difference between red and green... except when you get a little misplaced coming back from water-fetching duties, the red one's a whole lot easier to see. I like the red, cheers me up every time I look at it.

I've the Soulo. The vestibule works well and I wouldn't be without it and the inner space is roomy for me (at 183cm and a chunky 88kg). I was attracted to the extra pole too, thinking that it would provide more strength in snow. However, I haven't as yet used it in winter alpine conditions.

However, the decision wasn't straightforward as the Unna is appealing as well.

The clip up to external poles is very attractive. Easy to string up an extra square meter of porch, and with the lipped sill over the door. Ive always had vestibles but in some places I would rather have all the gear inside. Pre dawn pack up in the rain looks good on the Soulo with an easy fold up. But Ive seen Youtubes just "stuff" the Unna back into the sack which is pretty no nonsense, and done carefully the inner shouldnt get any wetter than whatever condensation is already there.

I decided on the Soulo for the reasons described by others.
A vestibule does it for me and I also prefer clipping the poles in, as opposed to a sleeve.

Good choice, you won't be disappointed
Mine has served me faithfully on many off track trips over the past 3 years;
sure there are lighter tents but the Soulo is bombproof!
Enjoy

The Soulo is as easy to stuff in the sack as the Unna.
