Rated 5 out of 5

Best tent I have ever owned.

This tent is outstanding! It is easy to set up and light. I like that the base is more robust then other lightweight tents. It is easy to put back into the sack and all the components seem exceptionally well thought out. It is very clear that Nemo took their time with this design and made it as practical as possible. It had my backpacking partners impressed as well. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase this tent again. Hopefully it will hold together for many trips to come.

Lower price, but loaded with new features

This tent is a fantastic addition to the Nemo lineup. While it's not the lightest, it's still a lightweight backpacking tent and it has some great features. The floor feels very sturdy and I love that because I prefer to not pack a footprint. I feel confident that this tent floor will still last a long time with proper care and site selection. I'm also a big fan of the upgraded hardware for inserting the bottom of the poles and cinching down the rainfly, it feels super sturdy and robust, without being too heavy. This is the first semi-freestanding tent I've owned and, while I'd prefer a freestanding tent, I wouldn't want this tent to be any heavier, so I'm fine with accepting that the corners need to be staked out, it saves on pole weight and works well.

Almost perfect

This tent is my first ultra light tent and super excited by the size that packs down. I bought the 2p tent so i could keep my pack in the tent with me. I 6' 1" and 250 lbs so theres no way it would fit another person in there with me. I like how easy it is to setup and feels very durable. the only thing I would of liked was for the rainfly to go lower. I was camping in a very windy area and sand was constantly blowing into the tent.

Good, but?

I find the tent very good once it is pitched. But, it is difficult to get the tension correct on the corners that don't get support from the poles. They always seem to sag in towards the middle. Another big gripe is that the ends of the poles stay in the black plastic inserts when you try to remove them. The poles separate more easily than they come out of the black plastic holders. This really makes taking the tent down difficult. I really like the tent once it's pitched, no complaints. Materials are great, ventilation is good, very roomy. But set up and take down could see some improvements.
