Excellent, Spacious 1 Person Tent
This tent performed above and beyond my expectations. I am a 6'2" 270 lb Polish peasant and this tent had more than enough space for me. The generous vestibule handled all of my gear, the head room gave me ample space to sit up and I never felt cramped. The weather ranged from 35° with 98% humidity (basically, camping in a cloud) to 70° the next afternoon and rain the 2nd night. I was incredibly impressed with how well the tent vented. I had zero issues with condensation. I was also impressed by how well the rain fly held the heat. Unlike others, the wind driven rain never entered the tent (bathtub walls are fairly high) I suspect people didn't utilize the guy lines or perhaps oriented the tent poorly. I know it's not necessarily designed to set up and take down the tent inside the rain fly, but by using the ground sheet specifically built for the tent I was able to click it in (lots of patience!) I will regularly use this tent as a 3+ season shelter. I imagine its snow load will limit it's use but I look forward to putting it to the test! The Osmo material is true to the pre press - it doesn't shrink with repeated soaking and drying. Love love love this new bit of gear!

Light Amazing Tent
I bought the one-person version of this tent and am very impressed. It is super lightweight, but much roomier than my old one-person tent. A major problem with my old tent was that when you rolled up parts of the rain fly to get in/out and let in light, the material sagged and wouldn't stay up. This tent is easy to have fully closed or to be partially open to let in starlight. Very happy with this purchase!

Perfect UL tent for my requirements
This is my second UL tent. My beloved hornet 2p was purchased, after extensive research, for a solonsection hike in Maine (100 mile wilderness to Caratunk) I love the tiny footprint of the hornet; weight is negligible, incredibly storm-worthy (once I figured out proper setup and placement) After about 6 years, she’s still going strong- minus a few claw marks (I travel with my adventure cat) I really wanted something a bit more spacious. I decided on the Dragonfly OSMO and I must say I love the fly fabric. It feels very substantial compared to the original. She’s incredibly spacious with 2 gear lofts at the foot end, two cell phone pockets at the head end, and two headlamp pouches above the head at each side with diffusers. There’s a snap at the very top in the middle of the tent for a lantern or some such ( I snapped my fairy lights into this for extra ambiance in the winter months) The height is excellent. I’m 5’9 and it really feels like a palace compacted to my hornet, height-wise. There are a ton of guy out points, making it incredibly sturdy in high winds, and the vestibule tie outs are great; not quite as intuitive as those in my hornet but once I figured them out, all was well. Because of the stiffer fabric it sheds water and dries MUCH more quickly than my non osmo Hornet, and there was no slimy handfeel after the first rainfall. There’s one spot in the middle of the rainfly that can be used for venting, but I haven’t used that yet, as it’s still quite chilly at night. There’s also a gap in the Velcro there, which I would prefer didn’t exist. I wish the vents were at the top of the rainfly instead. Otherwise love everything about it so far.

I'm obsessed
I've always been a huge nemo fan, almost all my gear is nemo! I recently took this tent on a trip and it was amazing. I love how easy setting up the footprint to the tent is, and I love the pole end clips. They're honestly the best. Super light, plenty durable, and great ventilation. And for someone who is over 6 feet tall, I didn't feel cramped, which was huge for me. Honestly, I'm just obsessed.

Solo Hunter - Best Tent
Perfect solo hunting tent (hiking, etc.) Packs down small, lightweight, easy to set up, and withstands the elements. The price is fair and a great company that cares.

This tent is rad
Okay a 3lb fully free standing tent. The OSMO rainfly is a cool blend of fabrics and doesn't sag in the rain. Lots of pockets. Only downside is lots of stakes needed to fully stake the tent out.

Awesome tent
Great little tent, got the 2p for solo camping and had plenty of space for all my gear for mild winter camping. Taking the tent poles out of the stuff sack really compresses down the tent making it super easy to transport! Great product, highly recommend!

Excellent tent
I've used this tent on backpacking and canoeing trips. It's so light and small that I was asked, that's your tent? Ton's of room in the two person. Easy and fast to set up. Tons of cool features. I really like the pockets in the top. As I get my sleep system set up, I put all my tent bags and other stuff sacks up there, out of the way and not lost in a corner. This tent is great.

Perfect tent for Moto Camping
This Bike Packing Tent works great on motorised bikes as well. Keeping your luggage compact and light is essential for getting into the backcountry. This great tent with its short tent poles fits perfectly in my luggage system and still offers all the comfort I expect from a tent. The double entree, awesome ventilation and plenty of room inside the tent make this my go to tent for all my motorcycle adventures. The green color works well for stealth camping. I'm 6ft 3" and I have plenty of room in this tent with its almost vertical wall. Features like the light pocket and the glove drying line make it even better. The only thing I would improve, and that is me really looking for something, is the phone pocket. If I could see the time on my Iphone when I tap it that would make it perfect. There is a seam right in front of it right now. Keep up the great work Nemo!
