    MSR Hubba Hubba NX2

    Evening guys

    Just wanting to know if anyone can tell me where these tents are made. Tried looking online and couldn't find anything.

    Thanks
    Dan

    I'm guessing if they are not splashing "Proudly made in USA" all over the website than China/Phillipines etc

    Remember the PRC etc can, and do produce high quality items with good QC.
    The reality is most importers choose a lower quality standard.

    The reputation of MSR, and the quality of the bits of MSR gear I own, suggests to me that where their gear was made isn’t as much a concern, as compared to numerous other lesser (and price point focussed) sellers of Chinese origin (albeit UK/USA/Euro/NZ design.

    As above....

    Honestly it doesn't matter anymore where it's made (unless you want to support local). QC and warranty is far more important than country of production.

    Some of the worst shit I ever wasted money on was "Proudly US made" and had horrific customer service and/or warranty conditions. Some other items that are M.I.C have not let me down after years of service.

    Yeah you're probably right. I'm probably just holding onto some antiquated ideas.
