Nemo NANO 2 Person 3 Season Tent

This two person tent is designed for space efficiency. This tent uses poles; however, they are only about 18" in length so they pack up rather small. In fact, I have never seen tents that pack up smaller than these Nemo tents do.

The poles go on the inside of the tent which means less material and less stitching on the tent. Once set up, the poles fit up real snug with the tent resulting is really tight walls. Inside, the tent feels quite large for a two person tent. In fact, it feels more like a three person tent because of the roominess; nevertheless, the flooring size does keep it classified as a two person tent.

Installation is not like most tents. You want to connect the poles and secure them in opposite corners of the inside of the tent while the arc of the poles is on the outside of the door creating the tent frame on the outside. Then pull the tent onto the frame. Lastly, attach the velcro to the poles on the inside. Once put together, you will certainly like the roomy feel and the tightness of the walls.

This is really a top quality backpacking tent.

The Nano Elite is designed for Adventure Racing and is a 4 season tent.

What differentiates the Nano Elite from the Nano is the material it is made from. This tent is for adventure racing where light weight is more important than breathability and comfort. Since the material is non-breathable, it will tend to be significantly warmer.
