Cedar roof top tents ?

Hey everyone,

I just got back from the Off-Road Expo at the Tradex Center in B.C., Canada and ARB was there with there roof top tent. I have wanted one of these tents for a while and finally had the chance to touch one and ask all the questions that I have wanted to. The best part is they had a special going on for the show and pricing was $1800 tax incl. Now while at the show another 4 wheel shop that I deal with said they carry a brand exactly the same size called the Cedar roof top tent.
Here is the link to the vendor

The question is, has anyone heard of these ?
There are just under a $1000, which is quite a bit less.
The materials are different and possibly the weight as well.
If any one has heard of these or has one, could you give me your critique.

Looks exactly like the ARB Simpson II, as well as the Mombasa Expeition, as well as the Open Sky tents ;)

Its seems at least the structural components are identical in all these tents, I can say for certain they use different materials in some models, and I'm inclined to say the quality control is better in some than others.
