Stepped in one at a local store last year, nice and roomy shelter, that full door was pretty cool as well

Like mine but just too heavy for arthritic old man. Roomy and well insulated , the door is great. The only other knock for me would be the tote bag. Like the zippered ones as opposed to the draw string top supplied with the 450I. Again my arthritis affected hands has a lot to do with this preference.

If you are hale and hearty. This is an excellent shelter.

Hey guys , I had the same issue with my Qickfish 5i . I had a local seamstress open the length wise seam of the bag and install a heavy zipper . Zips right up when done for the day .
