There is a 3 person version of the Hornet OSMO and it is absolutely perfect for 2. Best tent I ever had.

[TJBrister]

I have the Hornet 2p Osmo and love it. First trip had 2 nights of rain, one of which was windy thunderstorms, no problems whatsoever.

[chrisyoung]

would love to take you backpacking here in scotland. we have a freedom of roaming law here and it basically means nowhere is off limits. alot of land owners have a honesty box with supplies to help also.

I've had a few semi-freestanding tents with the fly cutouts at the headend and haven't had any problems with condensation or leakage. I could maybe see there being condensation issues under very specific conditions.

I opted for the Dragonfly OSMO 2P over the hornet for the fully freestanding tent and extra stake out point on the vestibule for more space. I could not be happier with the tent. Nemo makes great stuff.

I bought the nemo osmo dagger this spring and took it in the Minnesota boundary waters for a week in June. We had 7 inches of rain one day and I was very happy the tent kept me dry. I'm a full believer in the osmo fabric after that. It didn't sag much at all and dried out quickly after.

I really like the osmo 2P, works great for 1 person and so lightweight. Enjoy your reviews. Enjoy the collaboration with Steven also. God bless

[Sugar_bug]

You forgot to mention that this tent is only a 2 person tent if you use 20 inch wide pads. The tent tapers at the foot part to only 43 inches

Hey Dan, I have the Nemo meta 2p and it’s AWSOME. It’s an older tent but very roomy but kinda heavy for today’s standard at 3.5 0 pounds. It would be great if Nemo could re- release this pole tent with their new light weight material. Thanks for your time and we love your videos.

I have the OSMO 2P Dragonfly, bike packing version, and I just love it. The fasteners at the corners are wonderful.

[msterpunch]

I love laying my junk out in my tent. I have the Veda 2p and while it's a trekking pole tent it's still got a lot of cool features. Our freestanding goto is the North Face Stormbreak 3. Not really a backpacking tent but it's worth the added durability. Been in heavy thunderstorms and stayed completely dry.

[danielcluley]

I have an original Hornet Elite 2P without any brow-pole at all. Never had a problem with headroom having a 2p for 1p camping. Taken on hundreds of miles and never had a problem with water on the headwall. One of my best purchases ever. I still carry it a lot over my super-expensive durston because I don't like using Trekking poles all that much on flat trails (I live in Florida, so that's a lot of my hikes), and I take it bike-packing. Great tent that has stood the test of time!

[tysonferreira]

The hornet elite 2p is still one of my favorite tents. I also have the zpacks altiplex for my solo missions which is awesome too.

[ianmatlock]

I looked at Nemo tents, but wasn't convinced by them for UK weather, In the need I compromised and bought a Wechsel Exogen 2 tent for my Bike touring trips (its 1.9kg, but weight wasn't my primary concern for touring). they do a lighter 1 person version. Very happy with the choice. Also truly freestanding.

[MeachPango]

I dont backpack (yet) but i have a nemo aurora highrise 4 person tent, and i love it, its big enough to stand in and its wide enough to comfortably sleep 4 people if needed.

[jonroig]

I’ve logged a shocking number of nights in my REI Quarter Dome SL1. Look for one used… fantastic little tent

[ryanknake]

Big agnus tiger wall ul2 platinum is my go after my X-mid pro 2. I bet soon as durston releases the X-Dome that will over take all the free and semi-free standing tents

[camping_guru_uk]

Hi Dan, the Nemo looks like a cool tent but i dont know how any free standing tent that doesn't pitch in one as in outer and inner together canbbe the "King of free standing tents". I get the US campers tend to prefer the inner pitch first but they just dont work so well in lets say countries like the UK where you expect rain even in the summer months.
Great colab, love that you got a tech nerd lol to do the testing.
Cheers from the UK, Gary

In regards to the 1p version; Totally disagree… no vent, can’t setup fly first, small vestibule, small interior, fly doesn’t cover entire tent, and too expensive. I’ve been using the Marmot Tungsten 1p original version and UL version for the past 8 years. Marmot doesn’t get a lot of attention but deserves some respect for putting out a fantastic 1p totally free standing tent. I’ve put the UL version thru hell and it performs beautifully! They’ve earned my loyalty!

[beschuitfluiter]

That color blends in pretty nice. Like the upgrades too.
