Bought their dragonfly and was not disappointed. I bought the 2P so i could have ample room and i did. 6'2" and 280. More than enough room for gear for me and the dog.

This tent is super light and packs down very small. Purchased for backpacking and long canoe trips. Love the asymmetrical design for more headroom and the clip together pole setup was super easy. Can't wait to take it into the backcountry!

Bought this to fill my desire for an ultra light weight tent. It has filled this role well. It's certainly light but the tent has other virtues as well. Easy set up, awesome fly, and keeps me dry! My only concern is the durability of such a light weight tent. Obviously it will not be as durable as a heavier tent but it's something I think about. Overall, this tent is everything I was looking for in this category. The two tone mesh took a bit of getting used to but it's a nice but not needed addition. I'll be using it quite a bit this year so an updated review in a few months will be forth coming.

Not for backpacking.

I believe this particular tent is advertised as a backpacking tent. NEMO makes lighter tents for that. I've put this tent thru the ringer quite a few times and it's never failed me. This is my go to tent, for when out and about on my own. Either hunting or out fishing for a few days. It's not only easy to set up, it withstands whatever you throw at it. It's been covered in snow and it still kept me dry. I would say that the only con I have, is the head room. You won't be able to stand up, but depending on your height, you can easily move around while on your knees. I absolutely love this tent. My wife is usually a bit picky, but we took this out for an overnight trip not long ago, and she loved it. 3 of us have slept in it, 2 adults and my 16 year old daughter and their was plenty of space for us. Our packs stayed in the truck, and probably wouldn't fit inside with 3 people. But most of the time it's just me and my Golden Lab. Although this tent isn't cheap, it's also not super expensive. You won't regret buying this tent and I would absolutely recommend it.

Spacious and Durable tent!

I bought this tent just over a month ago and love it! I have used it 20+ days in the field and am quite impressed with it. I worked a course in the Northen San Rafael Swell in UT. and the tent held up through 50+mph winds. I appreciate the water repelancy and lack of stretch that this tent has as well. Lastly, I really appreciate the spacious head room that it has. I love this tent and have even talked a coworker into getting a NEMO tent.

Great packed size and versatility!

Purchased to replace a backpacking tent and to use for bikepacking. So far has been amazing for backpacking, paddle trips and bikepacking. The small packed size and roomy interior makes it ideal for my pup, partner and I. My only concern is the durability of the very light screen and tent fabric. BUT I have faith, NEMO products have been a trusted companion in the outdoors for many years.

Perfect balance of weight, packaging, durability

I compared many tents and settled here for it's near perfect balance of weight savings, Compact form when not in use, and durability. I also have the Elite version when I want to really drop weight but worry about it's durability in specific terrain. No issues with this tent. I especially like the small features to tighten the rain fly, access the tent and use the tent with a bike or backpack.

It's lightweight, small, and very packable. I'm a fan so far, though I haven't had a chance to take it on any big trips yet. That comes with the impending summer!

As some others here, I had a Hornet, which was great, but the 2 person tent was really tight for 2 plus gear. The Dragonfly ads just enough space, plus it is fully freestanding. I'm also happy with the OSMO fabric since it adds some durability and doesn't stretch... IMO this is really the perfect UL tent for it's combination of space/weight/freestanding.
