According to the catalog, the minimum weights are the same, and the packed weights are only 3oz different. Doesn't seem like a bad tradeoff for two doors/vestibules unless I missed something. Obviously no truly wrong answers with these tents though.

Are you still happy with your Akto, or do you wish you'd chosen the Soulo? It looks like over a pound heavier, and a tradeoff of vestibule space for bed space (and a little more money). Along with handling snow better, it also looks like the Soulo might vent moisture better. How's the condensation in your Akto? Is the floor length really 87" or is that the "cut length"? I'm 6'03" and wouldn't want my sleeping bag touching either end of the tent.
