Looking for feedback from other Luxe Gear owners.
I purchased a Hexpeak XL with snowskirt and Stove jack two weeks ago and set it up once to see how it looked. It seems to be a nice set up and I’m happy with the purchase for the price. The one thing I’m not please with is the weight. On their website it says the winter outer tent (which would mean snow skirts but not positive about stove jack) is 2.12 lbs or 34 oz. when I weighed my tent on my kitchen scale (without center pole, stakes, etc, just the tent & pack sleeve) it came in at 53 oz... now I purchased this as a light weight affordable tipi but the additional 1.5 lbs is pretty disappointing to me. Was wondering what other owners are seeing for weights or if they sewed rocks into my snow skirts.
I emailed Luxe Gear and their response is that they do not currently have any Hexpeak XL’s in house to weigh.
Looking for some feedback on if I send this back and get myself a Cimmaron or something truly light weight.
Thanks!
