• ability to add TPU door
• awning door extends shelter space
• stove jack seems to be in a usable position
• 4 dual fabric/meshed doors makes for great versatility
• inner tent seems nice and is all fabric so warmer for those cooler nights, yet could be ventilated well with mesh doors for warmer nights
• can use without inner tent or provide your own 2P inner tent
• not too heavy or bulky
• easy to set up - no frustrating long sleeves

• no ceiling fly to prevent ember melts from hot embers falling from the chimney melting the ceiling and causing issues with rain - ensure you chimney is very high and with spark arrester and avoid very hot fires - consider adding your own fly
• rear door cannot be open in rain otherwise your inner tent will get wet
• inner tent not as warm as a Vidalido Land Yu 2Persons TC Cotton S-T139 Tent - the inner tent is very tall with lots more air volume so your body heat will not be able to warm it up - but you can replace it with your own 2P tent
• wind resistance may be an issue given its height and only 3 poles

• see https://www.amazon.com/Naturehike-Lightweight-Backpacking-Waterproof-Windproof/dp/B0C4T2B7X4
• Sand Dune:
  • has a fabric inner tent instead of a mesh tent making it 3kg heavier and warmer for winter but too warm for summer perhaps (can replace the inner with a cheap mesh mozzie tent to address this)
  • is taller and wider but not as long
  • has an extra meshed door
  • does not have the curved rear door pole making set up easier but may not be as wind resistant as a result
  • has a TPU door option

• see Pomoly Leo 2 2P hot tent
• the Sand Dune is:
  • taller - you can stand up
  • much wider giving much more vestibule space an the ability to use your own inner tents such as the Vidalido Land Yu 2Persons TC Cotton S-T139 Tent
  • total area is 7.6sq compared with 5 sq.m
  • perhaps more wind proof as strong poles but given it is much taller the wind resistance may be similar
  • can add an optional TPU main door for wind protection whilst maintaining visibility - and this also acts to prevent rain ingress when using the door as an awning
  • much larger vestibule / stove area which allows space for small chair and small table as well as stove
  • easier to set up as the 3rd pole is clipped on above the other poles which is a major advantage over the Leo 2 which is a bit cumbersome which requires the 3 poles to be passed through their long sleeves prior to erecting
  • stove positioning allows more radiant heat to pass to you in the inner tent whilst still being relatively accessible from the inner tent
  • mesh doors to the vestibule for improved mosquito protection whilst in the vestibule
  • but lacks various advantages of the Leo 2 which has:
    • awesome dual doors for the inner tent for versatility in privacy / ventilation and temperature control (this can be addressed by the Vidalido Land Yu 2Persons TC Cotton S-T139 Tent )
    • perhaps better access to the stove door for stoking the fire
    • more compact footprint
    • almost half the weight
