I love my Coil DH..Tftuned worked their magic on it and I've well impressed with the performance.

Depends what you want. I'm sure the specs explain the merits of each one with regard to the type of riding you do e.g. weight, lock out, platform etc,

I'd go with the coil, the others appear to be too unreliable. I love my coil and have had no major issues: Some oil leaked out of the mission control but it wasn't a problem.

2-steps were notoriously unreliable. Might be fixed now. Not used the solo airs, but my U-turn coils have been pretty damn fine for the last couple of years. Need fairly regular fettling though. (lower leg splash lube change).

depends on your type of riding riding, i had the 2 step airs and the 2 step failed, sent them back and had the coil internals fitted as the 2 step internals were not in stock.
The difference is significant in a number of ways. The suspension action is greatly improved on the coils, but when climbing or moving around on the bike they wallow around a lot, I've had to play with the motion control damping to stop this and its more or less worked. Then there's the weight which is quite a bit more. depends what you want.
