For anyone who doesn't have a lot of experience with RTT's, I have had 4 different ones. Started with a soft shell by Treeline Outdoors, terrific quality and price and great for those who only plan to use it a few times a year. I've had a Roofnest, which is a more budget friendly hard shell with some great qualities. And I currently have the iKamper Skycamp Mini on my fiance's vehicle and a GFC on my rig. Those are both rather expensive, but amazing build quality, terrific profiles, and very unique designs. It really depends what your vehicle and usage is, but all RTT brands have come a long way, hard to go wrong with any brand nowadays.

The shells are not the best quality (fiberglass), the fabric seems to be on the cheaper side, and the hardware doesn't look like grade 8 and will probably rust within a year or two. When it comes to things like this, just buy quality. He has a good start, but has a ways to go before it is a respected product.
