Zip is more a liitle expensive and perceived better...

I'm Not convinced it's better.

I'm working with an architect right now who absolutely loves Huber Zip system .. we also just put the 5/8" Huber(Brown) product on the roof ..very expensive.

It's nice and solid no doubt.

My architect called for Zip (walls and roof. My GC said the ZIP comes out to be a little more price wise but not too much. I've done some research online but being that its relatively new and gaining in popularity owners reviews/testimonials are not very helpful at the moment.
