I've been on the fence with their UP5 tent and just now seeing this one. This looks like you get a more usable footprint. Which would you recommend from the two?
UP5 is a great tent and does have advantages over the Hexagon. While the Hexagon is much larger when set up, it's also nearly 7' when stowed away. Compare that to the UP5, which is just a tad longer than 4'. This is huge when transporting. The Hexagon is nearly double the weight, however the foot print is much larger than UP5. If you have large group or you just enjoy a larger space, Hexagon all the way.
Easily. I was just talking to a buddy a couple days ago on his family of 4 and recommending the Disc-o-bed bunk beds as well. These bed are great for space savings and getting more people comfortable in these sort of tents: amzn.to/3CJDI1q
Only downside as I can see it is the size of that tent when packed away. What is that 7 feet? If you have a SUV, how in the world would you even transport that?
Pick up your Hexagon Tent on Amazon: amzn.to/3ZeZcfH

Could family of 4 be comfortable in that tent?
Absolutely

Why this when you can get the FSR Hub 6xl for a lot less.
The FSR's are decent quality, but the RBM's are heavier duty, almost military grade. Expect to get many many more seasons out of the RBM.
