Which is best!  Vango Tigris 400 or Easy Camp Boston 400.

Hi! We have the Tigris and are very happy with it, the side entrance option is good because the front door is set at quite a steep angle which means you don't want to use it in wet weather. Also the slope cuts down on standing space in the living area. The Boston has only one door but it has a canopy to protect it and all the floor space in the living area is useable.I do like the big windows in the Boston, you can feel a bit shut in when in the Tigris (which is why I have my eye on an Outwell Carolina S for solo/weekend camps, but that's another story...)
Er, what else? The Boston will pitch all in one but has no bug mesh; I'm sure this could be remedied with a bit of Velcro and some voile or mesh fabric.
I like the stabilising straps in the Tigris, good for hanging stuff on! Can't comment on the Boston in use of course but so far we have no complaints about the ventilation in the Tigris.There's just the two of us and we cook outside, so this could be different with different use, of course.
So... hope I haven't confused you with my ramblings. Now back to the Outwell website, don't tell OH heh heh!

Thank you so much, I really thought no-one was going to reply.  I have seen the Tigris up in the Vango shop but no where seems to have the Easy Camp Boston on display near me and this is why I've posted this thread to see if someone could help out.  I'm just wary of ordering online incase I need to return but I dare say its okay.  Thanks again and will let you know which way I go xx
