This tent is the tent other tents are designed after. It's light, water-tight and you'll fit just right. I have heard some say it's too short for the tall type, but at 6'2" I find it fine. The two doors/vestibules make for a quiet exit for a midnight pee and the cross ventilation cannot compare to single door tents. It is pricey but it will last you longer than you'll need it to and is absolutely worth it. The hub and pole system takes a little getting used to, but you can do it.

I couldn't be happier with this tent! It's Light weight, packs up pretty good, the stakes are titanium! Breathablity is fantastic (obviously). The vestibules keep you and the floor dry in rainy conditions. On dry nights remove the fly and enjoy the stars! To save weight, take only the fly and footprint, that is if you don't mind some creepy crawly's.

Great tent. Light weight, durable, and keeps you dry. I cant say enough good things about this tent. Love to use it without the rain fly so we can star gaze. If rain rolls in it only takes a second to throw on the fly. Two doors and two vestibules is great (don't have to climb over someone in the middle of the night when nature calls). Also each person to keep their gear dry and access it easily. Im 6'3" and have plenty of room. Also I love the way the walls go straight up, much more usable space. Also love the option of setting up with just the footprint and rain fly when your not worried about creepie crawlies. Just buy it!

BEST TENT EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. I used this tent in lost maples, texas, and it packs light, and it seems small, but when you put it up, the thing is huge! it has breathable nylon which is good, and the poles are in a six in one hubba design, cool

MSR did it right with the Hubba Hubba. All mesh makes this guy feel open on the nice nights, and the fly keeps you +1 (and your gear in the vestibules) dry when it's raining. I like this better than the HP, which traded the mesh for lighter fabric. Normally I'm always looking to shed weight, but that's just not worth it to me.

Hands down my favorite backpacking tent for two. The all mesh upper keeps the stars in view and keeps the critters out. Its bomber in a bad storm and even survives some light winter camping.
Pitch the footprint and rain fly at outdoor concerts to keep yourself out of the rain or too much sunshine.
Bottom line - this tent rules the backcountry.

excited to use this tent set it up next to a Black diamond mirage 2 tent that i had ordered and this thing was way more stable and seemed cavernous inside compared. Grabbed a couple of ground hog stakes for the vestibules and heavier wind and rain. Thanks for the reviews. Exchanged the BD for the MSR...

I bought the Hubba Hubba a year ago and have had the chance to use it several times in the backcountry. It packs light and is very well constructed. I got the footprint to go with it and the system performs great at keeping the floor dry inside the tent. Just took it on the 4-Pass Trail in the Elk Mountains of Colorado (late July) and got poured on the first night. I mean it **RAINED**. However, in the morning I was completely dry. Others in the group with TNF and REI tents were soaked, but the seam-taped floor of the Hubba Hubba combined with the footprint kept me and my partner nice and dry. The unique pole design allows for a rain-fly-only option that sounds great, although I've not tried it out yet. All around it's durable, keeps out the elements, packs light, and is roomier inside than most other 2-person tents. The vestibules are great for housing your packs too (so the stupid marmots don't chew through your salty sweat-soaked stuff...). Highly recommended.

I purchased this tent in may of last year. i decided to go with this tent cause it won the backpackers magazine award thing. But i think i was wrong. it is a very lite tent but its stuff size is big which then i have to put on the outside of my pack which ways my pack to one side and the fly design is int very snug so in wind it flaps really bad and u cant go to sleep. i also tested this out at Bruno sand dunes in Idaho (note i did not sleep on the dune i slept in one of there camp ground things) and the sand came right up under the fly and went through the mesh. When i woke up at about two in the morning my tent was full of sand and when i say full i mean i couldn't see my sleeping partner. all my gear was full of sand. But now i see they make a msr hubba hubba hp with not as much mess which is an improvement. another problem that i have is that after just one year the bottom of the tent has leeks in it. if your looking for a good two person tent go with the marmot crib 2.
