Default OT- or on topic Ice fishing

I am looking at a few shelters -
People are catching some nice rainbows right here on our lake and some
kokanee at a large lake nearby

My local dealer carries the Outback by Frabill (since discontinued) but the
reviews that I read were not too good
Ice buildup on floors and buttons not working properly in cold weather, and
major stability problems in wind
I want something for 2-3 people
Any suggestions would be appreciated Thanks in advance.

Have them set it up, take in a 9' 5wt and see which one is easiest to
cast in.

It is a great idea but I could never consistently cast into that little ice
hole
Thanks anyway
