"It's still working after 19 years."
"held up fine in a light 20 minutes hailstorm"
"they're pretty lightweight for what they are! ... I'm not sure it's possible for it to be any lighter than it already is whilst maintaining that level of robustness. ... Most other tents that are as strong as a Soulo weigh more than a Soulo"

"Big Agnes warranty and customer service help is top-notch. ... I sent them an email earlier this week and they responded within minutes with a fix that allowed me not to send the tent in and repair it myself."
"Nemo’s warranty is fantastic. ... They repaired a rainfly for free that I’m pretty sure definitely ripped due to me."
"their customer support was better than any company I’ve ever encountered ... When my first tent got some delamination on the waterproofing layer they replaced it for free"

"the floor is sorta thin"
Used my nemo 45 nights this past summer, still looks new.
r/CampingandHiking • How much should you pay for a high quality one-person tent? ->I've been to the mountain 4 times and summited 3 times. 1st time, Hotlum Bolam ridge: Guide supplied a BD first light to me, some other clients got REI half domes 2nd time, Hotlum Bolam ridge: Guide supplied BD first light again 3rd time, Avalanche Gulch: I brought my MLD Supermid 4th time, Clear Creek: I brought my Nemo Dagger My opinions on these tents: BD first light: Light, small, affordable, strong. But it doesn't have a vestibule, and feels really small for someone over 6 feet when your pack is inside because there's rain on the forecast. My head and feet were both touching the tent, which was covered in condensation (it's single wall...) MLD supermid: Spacious but a pain to set up. Not great as a basecamp tent because it needs your treking poles, although you can always remove them temporarily. Nemo Dagger: Very comfy and easy to set up, but not for harsh conditions. My partner attempted Avalanche Gulch (guided) earlier this year (June, but the weather was bad), the guides supplied a Mount Hardwear Trango. Indestructible but heavy. One of the guides had a Hilleberg Jannu get shredded, a Slingfin (unknown model) and the client Trangos survived. If I were looking for a four season tent right now, Id probably go Samaya if I wanted the lightest option and Slingfin if I wanted the comfortable of double-wall.
r/Mountaineering • Is it worth it to buy or rent a four-season tent for Shasta? ->Doesn’t help when you’re on top of the mountain in the pouring rain :) Edit this sounds a bit harsh. NEMO makes good tents I’ve owned a couple. These days I just prefer something a bit heavier.
r/CampingGear • Gearlabs top 19 tents are all 200$+. One is even over a thousand. Are those of ua getting the 70$ amazon special really buying junk?! ->I have a Dagger for my girlfriend and me, and we love it. I also got one for my girlfriends father and mother. They also seem happy with it.
r/CampingGear • Is a 2 person tent actually big enough for 2 people? ->Nemo makes great tents. i have two, one has been with me since 2012 and still works great. i got another one last year with more room cuz i have more dogs. i like that they sell internal floors to keep dogs from making holes with their paws. i also love how easy they are to set up, and how durable the materials seem to be.
r/BuyItForLife • Is there such thing as a “good” tent? ->We just returned our Hubba Hubba (broken pole after a few uses) and got a Nemo Dagger. The Nemo seems more durable so far, very impressed with the design.
r/CampingandHiking • NEMO Dragonfly 2p tent for 374$ is good? Or are there other options? ->There are a few shelters that use trekking poles as supports. I have a Nemo that’s about the size as a Nalgene bottle.
r/CampingGear • Backpacker looking for one man tent that packs down to smallest size but not a bivvy ->Got a Nemo 3p tent a couple years ago then wife broke her ankle. Finally just used it the first time and it’s great. 3 person is def the way to go for 2 people.
r/backpacking • What's the best 2 person backpacking tent that won't make me hate my partner? ->I have a 3 person Nemo tent, which is perfect for 1 person plus my pack, or two people without stuff. I’d get a 3 person if I were you.
r/CampingGear • Is a 2 person tent actually big enough for 2 people? ->I’ve got the Dagger, but it’s an older version. It’s great. Easy and fast to set up. I’ve only had it a year, but it seems well made and I hope to have it for a while!
r/CampingGear • Is a 2 person tent actually big enough for 2 people? ->Tent: MSR or Nemo, sleeping bag: Nemo (the lightest warmest I’ve found) knife folding knife I’d use a Swiss army “Ranger” model, if its a folding knife sans that I’d use a fixed blade like a Pathfinder knife shop “scorpion or Kephart” the kephart is my favorite personally. It’s always good to have multiple tools for sure sometimes they fail. Additionally if you’re going to be in any remote areas take 2 ways to make fire whether that’s 2 lighters or a lighter and a ferocerium rod doesn’t matter. Ans water water water, and some way to filter said water. I’ve had situations even near or in towns where I needed water and had some but couldn’t purify it and a metal container of you can canteen or stainless non vacuum single wall water bottle if you have that and fire you’ll have purified water. Enjoy your walk sounds like fun to me
