REI Members get back an estimated $ 5.45 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about REI Bug Hut 1 Pro Shelter:

I hesitated to purchase this product because it had gotten a bad review (a previous model that was only [$]). However, I think REI made some improvements in design: the poles are shock-corded, and there are two small stakes to use to anchor the frame part of the bug hut to the ground so it won't flip over. I don't think the fact that the bug hut doesn't encase a sleeping bag all the way around is a big deal - I don't think mosquitoes are going to find a way to crawl on the ground and up inside. Would no-see-ums? I don't know.I used this in Shenandoah on an overnight in July and was bug free inside, it is light and easy to set up. I used it under a tarp and it was great to have such good ventilation and not worry about mosquitoes.

Comments about REI Bug Hut 1 Pro Shelter:

Used this product as replacement for older non-REI single person model. Was happy with the shock cord improvement over poles you have to put together and fall apart while trying to "sew" them together in hut. Good Going Techies!

Also like the roominess. As a tall guy (well, 6'2") there is ample room to like, roll over without worry of flipping over the tent part over the upper body. The rest of the hut for lower body is a non- issue and works fine. I am thinking of getting the Hut 2 for day hikes for meditation, but will need to try one out at store to see if two of us can sit comfortably for sitting meditation. Down the trail to store I go! Thanx, REI for the upgraded model improvements made. Om Shanti Om, Namaste,
Atindra,
