What is the deal with the vestibule size? There is a youtube video showing one vestibule as smaller than the other and incredibly inconvenient but I can find no pictures of this. Are the two vestibules different sizes? I am referring to the ones that come stock with the product and not the extra large one you can buy. I am very interested in this tent as an upgrade to my rei quarter dome t2, but am unsure about the vestibule situation, thank you to anyone that can help, pictures would be amazing if possible.

Yep, one is smaller than the other. Two doors need two vestibules, but one is larger for gear storage, and the other is primarily for getting in and out, and small things like boots. The smaller second vestibule also saves some weight.
