Users are very impressed with the MSR Hubba Hubba Tent, and highly recommended it to others, looking for an excellent one person tent.

It also comes in larger sizes, for two or three persons, and users say there is no difference except the size, and they are all equally good.

One thing most users agree on is that a foot print is necessary. They also praise the fact that the Hubba Hubba tent is very easy to set up, even by one person.

Although some users find the floor space a little small, this is to be expected from one person tents, and users recommend the larger versions, for those in need of space.

The MSR Hubba Hubba tent is higly appreciated by its users who claim it is one of the lightest tents available, and carrying it is a breeze. Its features are also as notewrothy as its price.

Company Info:

Mountain Safety Research, or MSR, is an American corporation located in Seattle, Washington, and owned by Cascade Designs. It was founded in 1969 by Larry Penberthy because he was not pleased with the safety and reliability of outdoor equipment. In 1973 Penberthy developed the MSR Model 9 camp stove, a breakthrough design because of its relatively efficient performance in cold weather. He also invented an ice-ax pick design that was believed to dig into the ice better and stop a slide. Penberthy also introduced possibly the first metal-shafted ice axes that have now wholly replaced earlier, wooden-shaft designs.

The company was acquired by REI in 1981 and is currently owned by Cascade Designs. In 2000, MSR merged with Edgeworks, the manufacturer of Moss, Walrus and Armadillo tents. Shortly after, these brands were discontinued and all tents are now branded under the MSR label. In August 2001, MSR was acquired by Cascade Designs.
