Great 3-P backpacking tent
Easy to set up. Enough room for three people, plenty of room for 2. Lightweight for its size, and easy to split up among different people to share the load.

Love this thing!
Set up this tent last night in the dark for the first time - easy peasy even without instructions. Super light and compact but still has some really cool features. Loved the two doors, big vestibules, and all the storage including the small headlamp thingys.

Excellent backpacking tent
I bought the 3 person Dragonfly tent for backpacking. I'll use it primarily with two people, but I like the extra space and it is still unbelievably light. Great build quality. Thoughtful features. Very intuitive to setup with color-coded clips and straps. Big fan!

Phenomenal tent, and well thought out piece of kit
I couldn't even tell you how many tents i've owned in my life. But I can certainly say this tent ranks right up there at the very top in terms of quality, function, ease of setup, and weight. I took this tent backpacking for three nights with my son, camped at 11,600' in patchy snow (high mountains still have some here in CO). I was impressed by how quick the setup was, both the tent itself, as well as the rainfly. All was very intuitive. I was impressed by the interior features that are always sorely needed - small mesh pouches for a headlamp to create a nightlight, and overhead mesh pouch for random items - each tucked away almost seamlessly into the interior design. The tent ventilated well, without being too windy - and it was windy and cold up there. Seemed to handle the wind well structurally - in that sole instance i give the wind nod to my hunting tent, but its a 4-season, and burly - and HEAVY. Carrying this tent to high-altitude dropped almost 4 pounds from my pack, compared to my "next best" tent i own. Just overall I couldn't recommend this tent enough. I'm looking forward to the next trip!

All the rave reviews are justified!
Excellent tent, lots of very thoughtful touches, very high-quality construction. Set up and take down is easy. I upgraded the stakes to the Nemo Airpins and glad I did. Like all backpacking tents, the carry bag is a tight fit; got a Near Zero 2P tent bag with clamshell opening. I previously used the Nemo Dagger and prefer this one, the sloped construction works fine and doesn't 'feel' like it is constrictive. Highly recommend this trail shelter!

Solid all around comfort, weight, cost ratio tent
This is a great do it all tent. Freestanding and roomy for one person. It's easy to set up and has creature comforts while being relatively light for a double walled freestanding tent. It's a staple in my gear library when I need confidence in my comfort and protection from the elements when I'm not comfortable relying on my more ultralight tarp/bivy setup.

Perfect backpacking tent for weight and comfort
I've used the 1p tent on two backpacking trips so far and have loved it each time. It is an excellent weight given all the features it has to offer. It felt very spacious for a single person and had perfectly placed pockets for gear. Vestibule was huge and had plenty of space to put gear to make sure they were dry overnight. Set up is super straightforward with a color coded system that took me less than 5 minutes to put together alone. Im obsessed with this tent

Excellent tent for backpacking
Excellent tent for backpacking. It has lots of well thought out details that help keep the weight down but keep things functional. It's the little details that made this stand out to me. lots of small pockets for things. the fit is just right for 2 people. and the vestibules are massive. Especially for the weight. Setup is more straightforward than other lightweight tents in its class.

Seems great!
I bought this a month ago, but haven’t had a chance to use it yet. I did set it up and test it out in the backyard, and from what I can tell it will be perfect for our needs. My wife and I wanted a little extra space for our two dogs, and this feels like the perfect fit. I’m pretty happy with the weight too. Very excited to get this out in the backcountry in the next month.
