Are all backpacking tents, specifically free standing tents, the same? While there are a lot of similarities with backpacking and camping tents, there are a lot of differences that make one option better than another for certain needs. In this video I discuss three different tent designs and what makes them the same or different.

Love your daughter's faces she was making in the tent!! It cracked me up so much!!
Ha ha she’s got a big personality.
We bought the Nemo Dagger Osmo 3P in May & have been camping with it all summer. We love that the Nemo Dagger Osmo 3P doesn't absorb water or sag, lots of stash pockets, vents, & as you pointed out same width which is a big deal with equipment or having a bigger hiking partner.
Thanks so much, Devin for doing this comparison! Your daughter is a hoot, LOL! It reinforces that I made the right decision to purchase the NEMO OSMO Dagger 3P for my husband's birthday present this past May. After my husband nearly froze in his Gregory Solitary 1P tent because of too much mesh causing the 60 MPH winds to blow on his head, he decided he needed a tent where there was more fabric behind his head while sleeping. We are hoping to try it out in a few days but set it up in our office and are extremely happy so far with the purchase. I really love the zipper configuration to be able to use one handed and secure the fly with the Gatekeeper door clips! I actually looked at the Sea to Summit Telos 3P but was concerned after I saw one bust apart in a strong wind. We already have the NEMO Dragonfly Bike Pack 2P tent but needed a larger tent for both of us since my husband is 6'4". I love the Landing Zone on both NEMO tents as it's a great place to put my backpack and gear without getting dirt on all of it.
Great video. Do you feel that the Osmo fabric does everything they say it does? I've been interested in that tent for a while.
Yes, I’ve been impressed so far. Way less stretch than on other similar tents.
@@BackcountryExposure That is why my husband and I chose the OSMO fabric on the NEMO Dagger! I don't like going out in the middle of the night in a rain, wind and/or snowstorm to tighten the loose tent pegs when the fly gets wet.
On the Aspect tent, you can unfasten the vestibule and roll up both doors. There is a not-so-obvious fabric loop on the left side that can be used to secure the bottom of the left portion of the vestibule when rolled up.
You need to redo your Nemo Hornet review… your model was recalled and all waterproofing issues solved! I was in Spain in a 16h downpour without a single drop inside :)
I really like that gear closet in the Nemo. Your daughter stole the show hahaha.
If you already have an Aspect 2, like me, you can use the guy lines to "peel" back the other door to open things up more.
Thank you for addressing the dirt, dust and spindrift coming in low mesh tents! I have a DCF mid that drives me crazy with that. Will be looking for a higher solid wall even at weight expense and such.
Great vid
The “x” design is right, it was other details that were different causing Nemo to be stiffer and taller.
OMG - what a funny daughter! Pulling faces throughout. Great comparison.
Your budget will be the biggest determining factor in what your options are . I was looking for a larger tent and while I was interested in one's like the freelite and the tigerwall I just don't have the budget this year for them. Ended up getting one that cost me a 1/5 of the freelite, it's not as light but it's a free standing double wall with two vestibules and the quality is good. Already had a one person from the same company made of the exact same materials so I knew what to expect. Hoping to get it out this week 😁
I'm curious, what tent did you end up getting? The price is definitely a big factor. :)
Budget is huge, and I’d always suggest getting the features you need within the budget you have.
@@TheHeroVincent Mountain Warehouse 2 person backpacker dome tent, ordered it in-store, was cheaper than online . They have some good stuff, not high end but well made
@@TheHeroVincent I paid $100 Cad plus tax website has it listed as $145 last I checked
I just bought a dagger 3p. Should I order a footprint also? I wish if it needed a footprint they would just come with one or use a different material on the bottom.
Footprints are always needed.
@@Em_Dee_Aitch Why? Genuine question.
your daughter is the star of the show
what a great reality check
She’s great!
Awesome video.., I am in the hunt for the tent between Nemo and telos
Great video! Comparing the Dagger to the Telos- how was the ventilation?
Oh, I’d go for the StS Telos , every day of the year.
Do you happen to know if the Nemo dagger 2p fit two 25” Big Agnes Rapide SL pads side by side comfortably? (I’ve heard that certain 25” wide pads will push up again the walls of the tent.)
Have you gotten an answer on this? Because i want to know too
Why does the Nemo dagger’s rain fly not cover part of one side?
i kind of like that Nemo Dagger. Do You have a backpacking tent option that would actually fit 4 people. The only one I've been able to find is the River Country Products Trekker 3. Its tight but all 4 of us fit. Comes in at under 5 pounds too. I just know you see lots of different tent manufacturers and I'd love another option to try out.
I’ve been using the copper spur hv ul4 and it’s great for 4. It’s just a pricey tebt
Great review, I wish I would’ve seen this before last weekend . Just kidding, bought the Nemo , Set it up four times in my living room, can’t wait to use it. Oh yeah love the faces too 🙄🤪😉.
Still using my previous generation Dagger2. Wouldn’t change it in the world for another free standing 2p tent until it’s smashed
Any plans to review the Six Moon Designs Lunar Solo?
Eventually. I’d need to buy one first.
I've been looking at the Duo and would like to see that also.
HELP!!! I still can’t decide between the NDO and the STST!!! 😫
Interesting that you say one pole makes stonger construction than double poles..
Great points
which company sells mattress covers?
They aren't mattress covers. That's his sleeping bag. They make sleeping bags that attach to the pad. The only caveat is that it means the underside isn't insulated. It's thin like a sheet. People claim this doesn't impact warmth... but I find it absolutely does.

Dude, I see you have your little girl in the video. I would love some advice on how to introduce my daughters to hiking and backpacking.
Thanks! First piece of advice is to just get out there. Go on some short day hikes, and make it all about them. Then move into some car camping and do everything you can to make it as comfortable as possible. I've found that just going out there, with zero expectations, and do it often and it just gets easier and easier.
If it doesn't work out, there's nothing wrong with bailing and just going home. Better to ensure they have a good time, and see how you handle hard situations in the backcountry than just suffer. :)
Your little girl clearly likes the Nemo more 😂
Your daughter is great. She definitely makes the movie more attractive 💖
Yes. All backpacking tents are the same.
There. I said it.

Just here to create drinking games!
Your daughter stole the show!

How about leave kids out of your great videos? Not sure whether their future self will change opinion about personal privacy.
