Does anyone have any experience on this flugelhorn? How does it compare to any of the other more common horns? I've listened to a couple of youtube videos and it sounds like the Kanstul to me.

Kanstul has several flugel models.... 725, 925, 1025, 1026, 1525, 1526.... Most of them either come with a copper bell by default, or can be ordered with a copper bell. Which Kanstual model are you referring to?
Why not post links to some Stomvi Elite flugel clips, and some of the Kanstul clips that you are comparing the Stomvi to?
The 1525 is a more open wrap and larger bore than the Elite.
The elite being a modern updated version of a Couesnon flugelhorn.
They play quite different. If you are into a more compact instrument the Elite is your horn.
The Elite better compares to the 1025.
Having played all 3 instruments I prefer the Elite. It is centered and focused with a wonderful warm sound. It won’t get lost in a large ensemble and will blend with other flugelhorns. It is quick and agile and a blast to play.
