This packs up perfectly for bike packing. It is easy to assemble. The daisy chain for bike gear is a nice plus. I'm not a huge fan of the plastic grommets for the poles, but so far so good. I haven't had it in rain yet, but so far it has proven to be easy to use and functional for bike packing.

Incredible Quality
I’ve been using Nemo products for years and love the quality and craftsmanship. Bought the Osmo Dragonfly Bikepacking 2p tent recently. It’s just incredible! It is perfect for my backpacking trips. Love the sturdy and weatherproof stuff sack it comes it. Plenty of room for me and my gear. I can’t recommend Nemo enough….customer for life!

Amazing Tent For Arizona Adventures
I'm a huge fan of Nemo and have been using their gear for years now. This has replaced the Hornet 2p in my backpacking setup for 2 reasons: it is freestanding - which is massively important when it comes to pitching a tent in the hardscape of the desert. And 2, it has more interior room and I often share this tent with my partner. Yes, it is a bit heavier than the Hornet as well as many tents in the same category, but I think that trade-off is absolutely worth it.

Very Nice Bikepacking Tent, Improved On Big Agnes
This newer bikepacking tent is an improvement on the earlier designs by Big Agnes such as the Cooper Spur BP (which I have). Since it is in the same price ballpark, I judge it to be a superior evolution of a similar design. What is key to a bikepacking tent is that the poles are cut into approx 1ft sections that easily fit between drop bars, or into a frame pack. The overall package with a packed tent is compact, and the outer bag is able to be directly attached to handlebars (tho that isn't the best way to do it). This tent checks all of those vital boxes. In addition, this tent improves on the basic design in two major ways. First, it adds several additional guy-out points on the tent, most critically on the bottom of the fly on the foot-end of the tent. If properly oriented to the wind, this alone greatly improves the stability of the tent. (The single guy-out point at each of the doors, with that being the wide part of the tent, is a design flaw of the Cooper Spur.) The additional 6 guy-out loops on the fly body - 2 more than the Cooper Spur - provide very solid stability for the tent even when not well oriented to the wind. Another improvement is the use of the OSMO fabric in both the fly and the tent bathtub. This fabric is said to not expand & contract, meaning you won't have to adjust the tension on fly in the middle of a stormy night as much. I have yet to test this feature. Another advantage is that the OSMO fabric is a dark green that in most wooded settings is far better camouflage than is that light gray of the Cooper Spur. Inside the 2P tent, there is plentiful room for me & the gear I bring inside (and also plentiful space for a helmet, shoes, panniers to be just outside the door). With 2 people (and sometimes a modest sized dog), it is sufficient but not spaceous; the gear will have to be at your head or outside. The basic design of this tent with two doors makes the guy point at the door the wide point of the tent and thus subject to battering by wind, perhaps our greatest problem. This tent improves the stability of the tent with several added guy-out points but doesn't change the basic design flaw. You'll experience it like this: you set up the tent to the prevailing winds or when it is perfectly calm, but then the wind whips up and changes direction by 90 or 180 degrees. Now your tent is improperly oriented and less stable. If the wind blows to the side -- the doors --it will tend to blow the tent inwards and bend poles. (Happened to me this year with my Cooper Spur.) In any event, the wide fly at the doors presents itself to the wind as a sail, and so must deal with alot of force that would be better dealt with by a lesser profile. The other problem with this and all other bikepacking tents is that the bulk of the tent body is made up of netting. This & the design of the fly to reduce fabric make such tents "airy" -- meaning cold; they don't retain warm air. So, while the tent is lighter, you may find yourself compensating by buying a heavier sleeping bag. The bathtub bottom of this tent is thin; you will need some sort of ground cover to protect it from holes for sure.

Very Cozy Blanket
This blanket is great. Packs down small but big enough for 2 people comfortably. Love the foot pocket. Can’t speak to temp ratings yet. Also the fact you can wash easily if used on long camping trips is a real plus.

Excellent 2p Backpacking Option
This thing is the perfect size for backpacking with two people; it packs down small enough to stow in the sleeping bag pouch of my pack (would be even more packable with a compression sack) and is super light. I've used it on two different trips - one with temps in the 50s at night which it was perfect for - one with temps around 70 with some humidity - it was surprisingly comfortable that warmer night too. Provided some dry and cool relief to the wet humidity of everything else. I haven't tried the buttoned foot box, but I think on even colder nights that thing would come in really handy. Also love that it packs down into an attached pouch that is impossible to lose. When it's unpacked, that pouch has a little zippered area where you can stow it to keep it out of the way. Only used twice so far, so cannot comment on durability, but the materials feel high-quality. Would recommend.

Best Blanket Ever
These blankets are lightweight, delightfully puffy, and so snuggly warm. I have two and have so far only used them inside on the couch, but I can't wait to take them camping. Having the option to button the bottom to make a pouch is perfect for warming cold feet.
