30' yurt + insulation layering

[Corinarose]

I live in a 30' yurt in Vermont. So winters are cold. The reflectix

insulation

is not useful or helpful in any capacity IMHO. I have it but it was not worth it, so you have done well by not purchasing it.
I spent about $900 putting 6" of roxul

insulation

in my walls and ceiling.
The down fall is the frost that accumulates on the inside of the outer layer
(no reflectix did not act as a vapor barrier).
This year I will add a vapour barrier about the insulation and the outer layer.

If I had to do it all over again I would choose the permancy of a wooden yurt

best of luck
