Happy Camper!

I had been needing to get a tent and was between this tent and the Big Agnes Copper Spur 3 person. From all the reviews, they were pretty comparable with NEMO Dagger having slightly more room. I decided on NEMO in the end due to size and pricing, and I am quite happy with my choice. I have brought this tent on 3 backpack trips so far. Two were in mountainous areas with only one other person and the third was a three person trek on the Olympic Coast. Here’s how it faired. Usability/Accessibility: The tent is easy to set up with only one person. Having just one tent pole makes it super quick. The attachment points for poles and rain fly are really easy to clip into and out of and I had no fear of anything disconnecting. The zippers on the rain fly are a little hard to open with only one hand, as the fabric gets caught. The tie backs for the doors are easy to use and can be hooked with one hand, but I wish they were a little further down the door. When looped back, the door still hand into the entrance, which led to some water dripping into the tent or onto people as they left the tent. Size: The tent is so light that its weight is barely noticeable, especially when split up. The divvy cube and individual sacks for the poles and stakes makes it super easy to divide the tent up. The tent fits two people with tons of extra room. The vestibules are large enough to fit two packs plus shoes on either side without worrying about them getting wet. On the three person trip, we were definitely snug and cozy. I have a NEMO Quasar sleeping pad in regular wide and my two companions had regular width pads. All three pads fit together with no overlap inside the tent. This leads me to believe that three regular width pads would fit perfectly without any fear of touching your partners in the night. I was pleasantly surprised with the inside space. I do wish the tent had more pockets, as each side only has one. An additional pocket on each side would be really clutch. Durability/Weather Wear: This tent saw it all (except snow). The tent itself feels really thin and the rain fly has a different feel than other tents. I was a little worried about the tent floor on rocks & roots, since I didn’t purchase a footprint. Well, this tent held up. The first trip it went on, we accidentally put the rain fly on inside out (oopsies!) and then it hailed and rained and the wind had gusts up to 20 or 30 mph. The tent was dry inside, even with an inside out fly. The tent was also rained on during the other trips, with properly assembled rain fly, and stayed dry on all of them. The tent floor held up great against all the surfaces, from rocks and roots to sand. This tent does not have amazing ventilation, but with the guy lines, we had no issues with keeping the condensation to a minimum. My biggest issue, though, was that the end of one of the tent poles did pop off when disassembling the tent on the second trip. I easily fixed it by reattaching the cord to the end and it’s working fine. TLDR: Held up great in rain, wind, hail, sun, bugs, sand, rocks, roots, and much more. Had a minor snafu with the tent pole end coming off when taking the poles out of the tent, but easily fixed. Fits 3 snug, but cozy and vestibules are large enough for storing all the gear. Easy to set up and take down and lightweight. Very happy with my purchase and would recommend.
