Frabill or otter make a great one man unit. Comfy seat and plenty of room for gear.
Having a crappie day and loving it!

The problem with Otter is they are heavy.  Are they the best quality?  Probably.  But quality isn't everything in a one man flip over.  Portability and weight are a huge factor as well.

Love my Eskimo Wide 1 Infernos. Roomy, full insulated, comfy seat, good combination of weight, space and quality. I searched them all and chose this unit, bought two in fact.

If I\'m not fishing, I\'m probably thinking about fishing...And if I\'m thinking about fishing, I\'m probably not getting much else done so, I might as well go fishing...Yeah, I just said that!

I have the Shappell FX150, my first flip so I don't know much about other brands.
I can say I like the room, have fished with my daughter, pretty tight for two but can be done, shanty is on the heavy side, I did build a Smitty sled which helps. The construction seems to be decent, zippers are heavy duty etc.
Time will tell how she holds up

My first year with an Eskimo wide one I like it. Suits me just fine.

I too have Eskimo Wide 1 Inferno and like it a lot. Quality is good . Only problem I have is all of my heaters are to big - didn't think insulated fabric would make that big of a difference.
