Virtual Sun vs Gorilla

I think I know the answer- "you get what you pay for", but I can't help but ask.
I found a Virtual Sun 10x10x8 on Homedepot's site for $450, but the Gorilla tent is around $1300 (before adding height extension), any had experience with the Virtual Suns?

Get the cheaper tent and more gear. Gorilla and Secret Jarden are sweet tents, no doubt, but I am glad I didn't start off with them. Get yourself some nice enviro controllers and better bulbs. Things like. The tent is just the space you are using to grow, the "other stuff" you will implement every day .

Read some reviews on that Virtual Sun, one review says it's great, another says light penetration and the zipper broke... argh. would be sweet to save that $ though, $6k is like nothing lol
Edit: i'm thinking of doing shower curtains around it if I get the Virtual Sun and light is getting through it.

As long as the surrounding area is dedicated to the grow, it is no big deal if the is a little light leak. Any ceiling lights that come on in the flower chamber areas is green LED bulbs. I also have a green LED rechargeable work-light and head-lamp. I'm not fucking around. :) The main (and most important IMO) thing is the ceiling bulbs. Try these, they are what I use for the ceiling lights between the flower chambers:
