MSR Hubba NX Tent 1-Person 3-Season

This is my first Solo Tent and I personally inspected all details including fabric, webbing tapes, sewing, zippers, zipper slider, zipper pulley, velcro, buckles, DAC pole, etc. and I totally satisfied with quality. Thank you for good performance of MSR and Taiwanese manufacturer. To Backcountry, too :)

Does anyone know how to review properly? Look No further for an accurate review. The Tent has one good point and that is that its tall. It better be because your sitting huddled up in the middle of the tent praying for warmth all night with all your coverings on you. The condensation on the small 8 inch walls up the bottom is cold and wet. The rainfly doesn't come to the ground anywhere so wind whips threw the tent all the time because the whole tent is mesh inside except for those little walls at the bottom. This poorly designed piece of trash should be labeled a one season tent and that is summer. It would be great in the summer if you don't mind the narrow no elbow room width which could use about 3 more inches. There are many better lightweight options out there. I should have saved my money for a lobotomy and just sat in the woods with my thumb in my butt wondering how to get it out. Where do these guys get trained for outdoor gear their living rooms? I saw one review somewhere else that said he uses the tent in the snow with pictures and he loved it. He is ridiculous and probably already has a lobotomy. Buy this tent if your too lazy to look for a decent one. Hey it is quick to set up and good for summer bike or back pack trips if your not in a windy area in the cold climate... Yay!

Half a star*

The MSR Hubba Hubba NX 2 Person tent looks like a winner! This MSR Hubba Hubba NX 2 Person tent boasts being lightweight, packs small, made of modern materials and is easy to setup/pitch. Some of the top things this MSR Hubba Hubba NX 2 Person tent shows me is it is pretty roomy with 39" of headroom and 25" of width per person for sleeping pads. Ventilation in this MSR Hubba Hubba NX 2 Person tent is awesome. I reviewed the MSR Holler 2p tent in the past and it was lacking ventilation and had condensation issues. This MSR Hubba Hubba NX 2 Person tent has great ventilation and mesh in key places to maximize ventilation. Use it for backpacking,camping, shtf, prepping if your a prepper, glamping or anything else. I am excited to get out and use this tent in 2017, look for a long term review summer 2017!

Using high quality, ultralight weight materials and smart design, this freestanding tent is perfect for backpacking. Easy to pitch, lots of headroom. I love this product.

The Hubba has served me well during many solo backpacking adventures and anytime I have needed a sleeping place just for me. I am 6'1" and the inside space is just large enough to accommodate my Big Agnes Q-Core SL for a sound night's sleep. The single gear vestibule afforded by the rainfly provides ample space for a backpacking pack, boots and a few other items. If you spend enough time outdoors it is bound to rain and the Hubba will keep you dry through a significant downpour. Believe me I know from experience. The picture below is from a music festival in the mountains where it rained for 3 days straight and my gear never got wet. I would highly recommend this tent, especially for solo backpacking or bike touring.



Feel free to shoot me any questions on the Hubba NX Tent or any other backpacking gear.

I took this tent for an overseas trip this past summer. It rained a couple of nights and I woke up wet. I cant blame the leaks on condensation because I had a good cross ventilation going. I will say this, on nights when it did not rain this tent rocked. Tons of room and it was comfy inside.

I brought this tent out with me for the first time two nights ago and I just came back from my trip. I live in Miami and my camping is usually around here. The temperature got to about 48 F and there were mild rains; the tent performed amazingly well. The vestibule is big enough to leave your shoes and gear outside of the main compartment so as to maximize space and reduce stench. There is more than enough room to move around. I woke up to find walls that were completely dry. There was no condensation regardless of the cold outside temp. The rain fly kept my bag and my shoes dry as well. The tent stayed warm and, most importantly, (again) dry! I highly recommend it.



The tent is SUPER light and super compressible. I recommend that you also buy a footprint or a tarp to keep the bottom dry and pretty (lol) it is a very good investment.



I keep having very good experiences with this brand. MSR is poving to be a brillaint company.

I spent 47 days solo backpacking Southcentral and Central Alaska. I was hailed on, rained on, and slept on rock beds all the time. This tent is incredible. Though its a little tall, you're not compromising on wind resistance. This tent looks like it'll blow right over, but it held up through everything I put it through. I love this thing. Lightweight and perfect for everything from northern trips to climbing weekends in the desert. It's my little home.

This is a decent tent, but not the best for the price. In Norway I would count it as a 2 season tent (spring and summer). It has good quality and nice features. The length is about marginal for a person of 1.90m, but the sitting height is good. It can withstand heavy rain and it has sufficient ventilation. When it comes to wind it is another story. One side of the tent is quite "vertical", meaning it function like a "sail" in the wind (NB! the included poles are too few and too small). If the wind direction is predictable you should place the vestibule towards the wind direction as it has a leaner slope shape and will make for an easier sleeping. Otherwise, the rainfly will be flapping in the wind and blow into the inner tent mesh and make you wet if it rains. The vestibule is small and can barely cover your backpack and boots. I would say this is the perfect tent for hikes in good weather, but for anything else I would grab my NF Tadpole 23. Btw, MSR Hubba is the left most tent on the picture.

I've used this tent on many backpacking trips including 7-day, 80 miler in the backcountry in Escalante National Park, 7-days, 70 miler in the Weminuche Wilderness Area, and most recently on a 7-day, 65 miler backpacking trip in Canyonlands Maze District. These kinds of conditions really test the durability, weatherproofness, and wind resistance of an ultralight tent.



My experience has been terrific with the Hubba NX Tent! I can't say enough about the livability, durability, and lightweight/packability! I believe this tent incorporates all three of these categories better than any tent I've researched and used. The current state of the market shows that many tents are singularly faceted, meaning they sacrifice everything for lightweight. In other words their coatings aren't as robust, the materials (especially the floor) has been reduced to tissue paper, and livability isn't even taken into consideration. Some of the ultra lightweight tents also compromise on breathability due to their single wall configuration. It's obvious to me the Hubba NX was designed with all three categories mutually considered. I can't think of a better tent for the money!
