MSR Hubba 1 Person NX Solo Dome Tent Review

The Hubba 1 NX Solo has one door and a peak center height of 3' 0, which is a little bit smaller than the average height of the 77 different 1 person tents we have studied. With 18 square feet of space inside, it is a lot smaller than some other 1-person tents, and it would be quite cramped for you during the 3-seasons, this tent is approved for use in, smaller tents similar to this one make an excellent choice for campers that love spending plenty of time outside their tent getting some air.

Many of the great things about dome tents are, that they are for, the most part light, making them simple to carry around. In most all cases, tents used for backpacking are of the dome type. They are generally speaking, freestanding and very simple to set up. In calm weather, you could do without securing the tent with stakes and ropes, not that this is suggested.

Dome tents are easily the most common of all the various types of tents you will see when camping. They tend to do better in storms than other types, allowing water to roll off the sloped sides, unlike cabin tents that have flat tops, allowing the water to pool on the top. The most straightforward dome tent will have a square footprint, slanted sides a couple of poles which cross in the middle of the roof. Due to the way they are made, it is usually thought of that they are ideal for up to a maximum of 6 campers.

PROS

1. Freestanding. The Hubba NX Solo can support its own weight on any terrain. It does not even have to be staked down in most cases. But in case of strong winds, it is always best to secure it to the ground with the included steel stakes and guylines.
2. Vestibule. Having one vestibule. Affords you a place to store shoes and other things that can get dirty, muddy, this is a huge plus.
3. Has Gear Loft. It is good to see MSR adding a gear loft in the interior to store some of your things.
4. Durable, water-resistant floor. The floor material is 30D ripstop nylon DuraShield polyurethane & DWR, which is a substantially thick and high-strength fabric. Meaning the base is not prone to tears and punctures. Also, the material has a 3000 mm waterproofing rating, which is very good for most circumstances.
5. The rainfly completely covers the tent body. The rainfly covers the entire body of the tent from the top to the bottom and has a waterproof rating of 1200mm. Meaning it will easily protect you against heavy downpours.

CONS

1. Not roomy. With a floor area of 18 square feet, the Hubba 1 is smaller than quite a lot of the 78 other 1 person tents we have looked at.

3. Footprint not Included. There is no included footprint, The floor may be made of 30D ripstop nylon DuraShield polyurethane & DWR but it is still best to protect it further with a footprint, more so on rough terrain.
4. Sloping walls. Even though Dome tents have lots of attributes to rave about. The sloping sides do tend to make it all the more smaller inside.
