I play golf year round in a large group. The few that have the different hard enclosure don't want to use them in the summer because it is just to hot inside them. And that lasts for 3 or 4 months. Where the roll up is required down only about 1 month.
I will agree that a hard enclosure is nice when it starts raining and you can secure it in a few seconds where it takes me a few minutes, but having the fully open sides for a much longer time for me is worth those extra few minutes.

Actually, having owned both now I can say that there is almost negligible difference in air flow compared to sunbrellas... when the hard cab doors are open.
While I was reluctant at first to get a Curtis Cab because I had heard the same thing...my wife insisted we get one with doors.
I have never regretted it...and will never own another one without a hard door.
Being able to quickly close the doors when caught in a rainstorm, or cold weather, and not hassle with rolling/snapping the plastic ones constantly...is a huge convenience.
In addition, you don't have to listen to the plastic whipping and snapping...while driving when cold or in a storm.
I tend to smile every time I pass someone who chose not to bother to lower their sumbrella for that quick shower...and they look like a drowned rat as they pass by.
My next cart will have the sliding type though, as they offer a lot more flexibility in being able to close just part of a door when so desired.
Different strokes though.
