Why We Like The NEMO Mayfly OSMO Tent
Not every campsite is perfect, but with the NEMO Mayfly OSMO Tent, we can make the most of every place we call home for the night. The water-resistant OSMO fabric is treated with a DWR coating to keep us and our gear dry and comfortable in wet, rainy conditions. The spacious interior offers room for two sleeping pads, and with two doors, we're able to get into and out of the tent without disturbing our partner. The simple, straightforward design makes set up a breeze, and we can easily adjust the tension with the Axial Corner Anchor to keep our tent standing tall all night long.

Lower price, but loaded with new features
This tent is a fantastic addition to the Nemo lineup. While it's not the lightest, it's still a lightweight backpacking tent and it has some great features. The floor feels very sturdy and I love that because I prefer to not pack a footprint. I feel confident that this tent floor will still last a long time with proper care and site selection. I'm also a big fan of the upgraded hardware for inserting the bottom of the poles and cinching down the rainfly, it feels super sturdy and robust, without being too heavy. This is the first semi-freestanding tent I've owned and, while I'd prefer a freestanding tent, I wouldn't want this tent to be any heavier, so I'm fine with accepting that the corners need to be staked out, it saves on pole weight and works well.

Almost perfect
This tent is my first ultra light tent and super excited by the size that packs down. I bought the 2p tent so i could keep my pack in the tent with me. I 6' 1" and 250 lbs so theres no way it would fit another person in there with me. I like how easy it is to setup and feels very durable. the only thing I would of liked was for the rainfly to go lower. I was camping in a very windy area and sand was constantly blowing into the tent.

Good, but…
I find the tent very good once it is pitched. But, it is difficult to get the tension correct on the corners that don’t get support from the poles. They always seem to sag in towards the middle. Another big gripe is that the ends of the poles stay in the black plastic inserts when you try to remove them. The poles separate more easily than they come out of the black plastic holders. This really makes taking the tent down difficult. I really like the tent once it’s pitched, no complaints. Materials are great, ventilation is good, very roomy. But set up and take down could see some improvements.

I have only had a chance to take this out once (in the summer) so I cannot comment on the warmth, but this is a very comfortable pad! I literally got the best night sleep I have ever had camping. I had to grit my teeth to pay this much for a pad, but glad I did!

Worth the price

The fabric is crazy durable yet weighs nothing. It’s a good size for 2 people backpacking and will keep you dry. Stuff bag can double as a bag to hang from a tree. Tent poles and ground stakes feel durable.

Great value for the price!

- I've used it several times
This tent offers quite a lot for what you pay. Full of convenience features, nice and roomy and still super light and packable this tent is a perfect addition to your backpacking kit. I really also like that fly is made from OSMO fabrics which are more waterproof and durable than regular silnylon. I noticed a lot less stretch in the tent fly after a rainstorm and felt like the fly didn't soak up nearly as much water either which made packing up in the morning easy. Overall super pleased and can see this tent coming on many more adventures in the future.
