Noted TrishaR1970's post re the large dogs. Have found that many folks count human bodies in their camping needs, but forget the pooches. Our DFs had a ROO19, which had no slide. Even just adding their small/medium size dog made for really tricky navigation getting meals ready and moving around comfortably. We had a ROO 23 with a slide and for some reason, when evening and time for cut-throat Dominoes rolled around, we ended up with all 4 of us + their small/medium pooch and our 80# World's Best Yellow Camping Lab all spread out with plenty of room for everyone. Need to keep in mind the dog's comfort, lol. Truly, if you plan on taking a dog(s) along, personally wouldn't even take a second look at something without a slide. Dogs don't like being stepped on.
