Hubba Hubba NX 2 review 

I know somebody touched on it here about the Rain Fly set up, which was done incorrectly in the video. So others can avoid the easily made mistake, the fly in this Mark II version now comes colour coded to get door orientation correct. You must set and match up grey tabs on the fly with the grey tabs on the inner tent at each corner point where the poles go on, and red to red on the other side. Thanks for the vlog!

Thanks for posting this I couldn't decide witch tent to get 1 man or 2 .my wife likes to support me from the comfort of a near by 5 star hotel so just me in the tent .I live in Ireland and will be bike packing this summer for the first time and this video has really helped. 👍liked and subscribed, take care

I have this tent, I'm 6'2 and find it really big for a 2 person compared to others. but def not room for gear with 2 people, which is the point in the vestibules. great vid though!!! if you want room for 2 people and gear, I hate to tell you but your gonna have to go with a 3 person.

Nice video guys thank you, wille mounting the tent the midle pole goes above.

Sweet intro, well done. That is a pretty sweet tent Shane and Laura. Your channel is very interesting and informative. Although I have all my gear for my 2020 A.T. thru hike and v-logg, I always like to see others choices and perspectives on gear. I just clicked the red button above, thumbs up, the whole nine yards. I will check out more of your cool videos! Kamper 2020

Bought this tent awhile back with the optional gear shed that adds a bigger vestibule area. It’s a bit more weight but split between two people, it wasn’t bad, and we had plenty of room for our packs and a bigger spot to cook when it rained.

Nice video! But you put the fly on backwards. Check the Red/grey tabs! It makes sure the fly and tent zipper are the same way!

I'm wondering if you guys have tried the Motha Hubba lightweight 3 person version?

Thanks a lot for the video. I was indecided between this and the NX1, for solo camping. Because you says it is really tight.. I will go for this one. Plus I already bought the add-on Gear Shed for the bike.

The 3 person version might be great for you two.

Which sleeping pads did you use? Is there enough space for two wide Thermarest pads?

Great review - thank you

Scary beautiful intro; mostly scary... But mostly beautiful😉

I ordered this tent but unfortunately footprint isn't in stock anywhere on this planet atm. Would you say that even without it I can have good experience or its that thin on the bottom.. Appreciate you guys, just subbed :)

Amazing video, congrats on that. What is your opinion on building first the inner tent? I dont know about your weather conditions. Currently i am thinking about a new tent and i would use the Hubba Hubba by myself, but i am afraid to build it, when its raining. She said that its not that big, but i imagine that through the vertical endings on Head and Footsides you wont get much contact, when laying near to it , with inner to outer tent? You made me curious for your other Videos :)

Short cross pole should be on top of the long pole ..

I've been looking at getting a new tent and I'm now stuck between the msr elixer 2 and the hubba hubba nx. Cheers for the review, happy travels 👍

Very good review

Thanks for a nice overview and review of this tent! I am very tall (6'7 / 198cm), so I would love to find something not overly short for me, how would you say my fit would be with another person?

Thanks for a great review😃 Was not sure which msr tent too choose as most reviews are shown with one person in it, but great to see how two can fit in it. Have you testet the tent while its raining?

Love it!

Im a 6,3 200 pound guy, i was looking at the MSR NX 1 but read that it could be tight for taller people. Would you all recommend this for me as a solo backpacker?

How did it do in the rain if it's the newer version of the tent without the seam seal?

Seems like a decent tent. Thanks for the review. Probably plenty of room if you only have 1 person in it. Thumbs up.

hello, is the compression stuff sack waterproof ? I mean could I put the packed tent on my bike and ride in the rain? I know there is a big opening, I'm just wondering about the material of the sack. To see if would be ok when I put the opening downwards.

Did you ever had issues with rain? I find a lot of reviews that say, that it leaks! Here is also a Video watch?v=nUASmjCCRU8. But i guess you have an older model, the most people seem to complain about 2019. Thanks!

for weights and measurements...at least display the metric numbers in the video!

So you downgraded from a big Agnes copper spur… 🤔

Not for me... Won't keep the water out.!!

Different idea: Don’t buy a footprint for this, or any tent. All tent bottoms let in moisture. The priority should be to protect the camper, not the tent floor. Measure the tent floor when the tent is set up. At your local hardware, buy a sheet of visqueen large enough to get a single piece that will be 1 foot longer and 1 foot wider than the inside of your tent. Fold up a six inch side on all four sides. Miter each corner and secure it with duct tape. This gives you a waterproof bathtub to go into your tent. Now, you and your gear can be dry even if water is running through the tent. Get a puncture? Patch it with duct tape. Get 20-30 patches? Buy another piece of visqueen.

MSR no longer do that footprint with the grommets for doing a fast and light set up. They replaced it with a universal footprint which is terrible.

This Hubba Hubba tent is terrible. I just bought one, unless you use this without a rain fly in absolutely perfect dry conditions it doesn't work. It leaks like crazy. The design is terrible. Yes its easy to set up which is great. But thats it. The rain fly sticks to the mesh, even in clear conditions the condensation leaks all over you. Light shower you are in for a bad night. Don't get it!! This is not a tent you would take anywhere away from civilisation.
