My First Nemo Tent

This tent has become one of my new favorites. It is easy to setup and makes a great foundation for the big three in my backpacking kit. I have enjoying this so much that I use my Hornet 2P when I go car camping as well.

Quality Materials And Light

This is a very light weight tent with good materials. It's very tight inside so it's best as a large 1p unless the people are small or a couple

Hornet 2p Not Ideal For Rain

I like the hornet 2p but only for sunny dry days. The cut out fly exposes too much tent. In a heavy downpour, water got in thru the mesh even though it was fully guyed out. Also if you touch the single exposed tent layer when it is wet, say with your bag or pad, it will get wet. If you sleep cold this is not your tent, go for something with a full fly. I love the weight, and this is a good tent for dry days.

Great Service

Bought this tent for my son. Hasn't used it yet but we set it up and it looks to be a quality item. Going to be great for upcoming backpacking trips.

High Quality, Light Weight, Very Packable.

Excellent backpacking tent; light weight, packs very small, assembles quickly and easily. Two side doors are a plus; allows more versatility when pitching the tent in less than level spots. Ventilation is adequate with doors zipped, and amazing with everything open. Materials and workmanship appear to be very good. I've only had it out for two trips, but so far, I am very pleased.

Best Lightweight Tent For The Money!

I bought this tent about a month ago. I am so happy with how easy to set up. It is also one of the lightest tents out there for budget conscious hikers!

Excellent Weight And Weather Protection!

I've taken this on several many multi-night backpacking trips now. The weight is excellent for a double wall tent, and the setup is a breeze. I got stuck in 5 days of rain on my recent JMT hike and this thing stayed dried even when the ground flooded underneath my tent, the bathtub bottom kept everything inside dry. No wear and tear issues other than the squirrel that ate through my mesh sidewall to get tiny bag of nuts I forgot were still in my pack, DOH! Luckily Nemo warranty is amazing and they are replacing the damaged parts. The only thing I would note is that the 1P tent is a few inches longer which would be nice since I'm always staying solo in the tent.

Great Tent

Used once so far and I love how light weight and how compact it is. It is one of the lightest pieces of gear I have in my pack. Can't wait to use for my Colorado elk hunt.

Does What It Should

I bought this for a planned thru hike next year. I’ve tried it out a couple times and find I’m still on the fence about it. I love how lightweight it is, but it feels so delicate I’m scared if I roll over, it will tear. Also, I’m not thrilled about the lack of headroom, and the fact the the footbox is only partially free standing, but I suppose I should have paid more attention to the dimensions and specs when I bought it. Also, while technically a 2 person tent, it feels a little claustrophobic from the inside. Aside from that, so far it’s been a great little tent.

Very Well Made Product.

This tent is everything you need in a lightweight tent, it's a game changer.

Awesome Ultralight Option

There’s an awesome ultralight tan that really maximize your space to weight ratio. However being a lightweight tent it is important to note that I would not feel comfortable using this for car camping every weekend, save it for when weight matters!

Well Tested

Hi everyone I just bought this tent for its features ( 2 doors, You can sit up in, 2 person and lightweight. The price was a little more than I wanted to pay. But to get what you really want you have to do that. No compromise!. I took Hornet 2 P away over the weekend and the first night is windy and you know with some tents you get that flapping sort of thing when windy. Well, the Hornet 2p didn't. And the second night it rained and at times real heavy and I was dry as a button. The next morning gave it a shake and hung it up to dry and it did in no time while I had my breakfast and coffee. Thanks, Nemo money well spent.

Outstanding Ultra Light Tent!

I have had this Hornet 2P tent for about 3 months now and am totally satisfied. Previously i had a previous version but the enhancements to this latest version really make a difference! i.e. the sturdier clips at the top, the enhanced tie out loops, etc.

Super Light And Quick Setup

This tent is extremely easy to store in a pack. It is so light, I barely recognized the added weight. Another great feature is how easy it is to setup. It takes very minimal time. I have found 2P to be a bit tight for two large individuals. You can fit, but it'll be a bit tight.
