Not seen the Fishrite one but a friend bought the 'JRC STI Bivvy TWIN SKIN 2-Man' it looked great but as already said, weighs a ton and then used to take him ages to put up... he ended up keeping it a month and then getting rid and getting an evo... Great bivey, light as you like and go up well rapid, just not as big as your 2 manners...

If it was a choice between the two then the Fishrite XS would have to be it. When its setup right it is solid as a rock and with the twin skin its real cosy inside. My mate 'Sam' off this forum has got one and he has been abusing it for a good year or so and has had no problems with it what so ever. Give him a pm as i'm sure he will give you a bit more info on it

All day choice.. If its a 2 manner then the Aqua or Armadillo it has to be.. Go up brilliantly, massive and strong as an ox... If its just for over nighters then the fox evo plus, goes up in minutes and its on offer at the mo!
