Outstanding 3p Tent

I bought the 3P version to have a lightweight tent to take out with my kids on backcountry adventures. The weight, organization, and quality are outstanding and well thought out. I was hesitant about getting a semi-freestanding tent as I wasn’t sure if I should just spring for the fully freestanding model, but now that I have it I would never go back to a freestanding. I have a freestanding and a trekking pole tent from competing brands and I couldn’t be happier with this tent. The weight savings and ease of setup make this tent a no brainer. I now really want to get the 1P for my solo trips!

Perfect Size And Weight.

Perfect size and weight. I’m 6’1” 192lbs and my girlfriend is 5’1” and we both fit in here comfortably. I highly recommend this tent.

Great Tent For The Weight

Stoked to take this tent out now that I have my own! I've borrowed this model from my local gear library several times and it's done really well, though I've yet to test it in heavy rain or wind. So easy to pack and can't argue with the weight.

Great Backpacking Tent

These Nemo tents are amazing. Lightweight, they pack small and are really comfortable. Glad to have one in my kit.

Hornet 3p Great Tent But A Bit Short

Great tent! Only issue is that it is shorter than expected due to how sharply the ends slope in. If you’re taller than 6’ expect to sleep diagonally or slightly touch the sides of the tent. Would love to see an extra long variety

Hornet Osmo 2p Tent - Nemo Does It Again

Once again NEMO thought of everything when designing this lightweight "2P" tent. Frankly, you would be hard pressed to fit two folks into this tent. I opted to purchase the "2P" tent to allow room for some gear inside the tent besides myself. This past weekend I field tested it on a section of the PCT. It passed in flying colors. This tent is well constructed. Easy to assemble. Easy to take down. My only suggested improvement would be to increase the size of the gear loft inside the tent and perhaps its angle to accommodate larger items and keep them in place. All in all -- excellent, lightweight tent.

Light Weight

Purchased the tent a few weeks ago. Have used it on one overnight. It’s light weight design and ease of use makes it the ideal one man backpacking tent.

Light, Dry And Sturdy.

This tent is light, easy to set up and dry. I took it on a bike trip with 14 clients in 6 tents. This was one of two tents that were dry after the rain storm with hard winds. Zero negative things to say about it.

Feather Light

I recently purchased the 1 person hornet OSMO tent and while I haven’t had a chance to use it yet, I am very impressed with the size, weight, quality and ease of use setting it up.

Light, Fast, And Livable

Light, fast, and surprisingly livable. The Hornet OSMO seems to hit the sweet spot for putting mileage on, packs nicely, sets up quick with one person, and holds strong in wet and windy conditions without the usual sag. Thoughtful design actually gives you usable space to move around some as single, not just claimed square footage. Solid go-to for backcountry hunts or long pushes. I have only used this on solo pursuits but feel like there will be enough room for 2P when needed.

Great 1p Tent

Excellent little tent. Set up is easy and it’s super light for the durability it gives. Osmo fabric does really well in wet conditions, without giving too much sag. Happy with the purchase.

Lots Of Room!

I bought this during a sale and I am extremely pleased with the tent. I fit inside perfectly (I am 6'5) and there is plenty of space for another person and a dog. I wish it had more space to put your phone, wallet, etc. Overall, amazing tent.

Incredible

Such a perfect mix of durability, space, and a mind blowingly small pack size. It’s perfect

Very Lightweight, Bit Small But Not A Problem

Very lightweight and easy to put up / take down. Only thing is that the inside of the tent feels pretty small. more like a 1.5 person tent than a typical 2 person. Mostly because the tent walls being so angled. Still able to fit 2 adults though and comfortable

Most Useful Shelter I Own

Easily my favorite double-wall tent! For a 2lb tent, and practically freestanding, it’s fast becoming my first choice for any +30mi trek. I do plenty of camping above the tree line and I love that the stake loops are so large that I can just put a rock or a log in it instead of staking it. Easy enough for beginners; light and versatile enough for a thru hike. AT- 2015 PCT-2017
