Review: 5 stars even compared with name brands - Having been on the fence about buying a hub due to their typically expensive price range, I opted for the Thunderbay Ice Cube since it had high ratings and a low price tag. I have used it almost 10 times now after just getting it a month ago. Pros: - The set up is super easy, - take down is super easy (read the short little how-to paper that comes with for some tips/tricks) - It comes with 8 ice anchors (4 for each corner grommet and 4 for the guy lines off each hub). I have never needed more than a total of 4 anchors but I also haven't had a crazy windy day yet on the ice. - The backpack straps work pretty darn well for it being a shanty and not a backpack! - It blacks out really well for sight fishing. -Velcro windows for more ventilation - one of the bigger sized pop up hubs without getting a double wide or a 5 sided Cons: -only one door (hasn't been much of an issue at all for me though) - no insulated version available -With the heater cranked all the way up when it was 0 degrees outside, there was some condensation build up that dripped on the edges. - one of the zippers broke (during the 0 degree weather so i wasn't surprised the metal became brittle) but a tied piece of paracord lead to a quick fix Overall, I give this pop up a solid 5 stars. Even with the cons that I have listed above, I feel this shelter meets everything it claims to be. Having used a few other hub shelters, this one seems to be just as good if not better than some of the name brands but it came at a fraction of the price. For being over 100$ less than the next comparable hub of its size, I definitely got my money's worth even if it only has 1 door. I would definitely recommend to friends and family (and I already have :P )
Review: Exceptional product. will purchase again and again. - This item was used by me foralmost 6 years before a high wind during setup inverted it and I havent been able to get it back in shape . During the time in use it was perfect except now I know I need a larger version as my grown sons like to ice fish with me. It was warm in side easy to use and blocked all but the 35-40 mph winds that took over during setup in 2025.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it have a floor to keep out snakes and insects?**
A: No, it doesn't have a floor. We generally don't have much trouble with snakes or insects out on the lake when ice fishing. But you've given us food for thought for some of our other products!

**Q: Can I use buddy heater in this tent?**
A: Yes. I have this hut and use a buddy heater in it all the time and it works great. Keep in mind I live in Idaho where most of my ice fishing is in 15 degree weather or warmer

**Q: Are the hubs made of plastic or metal ?**
A: Metal with fibreglass poles.

**Q: what is the length folded down?**
A: When folded down and in carrying bag which has slings to wear like a back pack, it measures fro just below too of my head to halfway between my knees and waist

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice for the price
*by J***U on January 4, 2025*

Just set it up in my living room, the first thing we noticed was the roominess. Quality is satisfying. Wasn't to hard to set up for a first time, It will be nice to put the floor stakes in first I'm sure it would've made things easier for us. We can't wait to hit the hardwater! It's then that I may give the 5 stars... I'll post an update if the wheels come off.
