Nemo Dagger Osmo 2P Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 чер 2023
- We recently purchased the Dagger Osmo 2P, a light weight backpacking tent from the company Nemo. I'm super impressed so far by the design, the materials and the attention to detail that went into this tent.
The inner body of the tent measures 90" by 50", on both ends, which is super important if you want to use two of the newer 25" wide sleeping pads (game changer in my opinion).
Peak Height: 42 Inches.
Weight: Packaged weight = 4 lbs 2oz (1.87kg)
Minimum trail weight - 3 lbs, 6 oz (1.53kg)
Colors: Burch Bud/Midnight Grey
The tent has two doors, one on each side, along with huge vestibules on both sides. The dagger also comes with an additional add on called the "Landing zone" which is a waterproof floor for one of the vestibules, a super handy place to keep backpacks, and items you don't need directly inside the tent itself.

So much room for activities!
Really spread out
The landing zone and all the pockets are awesome. What a really slick feature. I have tent envy. Can't wait to see you using it on your backpacking trip.
Im really pumped about both of these. However, neither of them hold a candle or wood stove to your Alaknak
Thanks for the review bud, I just snagged one of these and am excited to use for my Colorado trip coming up. Looks like great quality, this is my first high-end tent
So glad to hear the video was helpful. You’ll love the tent. Where are you headed in Colorado?
Can only relate to the backpacking elements of all your outdoor adventuring, but was suprised to see we have almost the the same tents. I have the Dagger 3p for trips with the missus, and the xmid 1p for solo trips. Both great tents and they serve both situations perfectly. Appreciate your review in this video. 👍
Shaun that’s amazing. I’m a huge fan of both tents and in some ways, wish I would have gotten the 1P in the Duraton as well. Thanks for watching, new backpacking content coming up at the end of July!
Great review, thanks
Thanks for watching!
In rainy conditions, I highly recommend to stake both ends of the tent (underneath the Nemo logo) otherwise condensation might start to build up inside the tent.
That’s great advice Rudy! Thanks
Very nice truck camping tent and it can double for packing if you’re not tracking too far
This is one of the lighter tents that Nemo makes so yeah…ideal for backpacking in my opinion. Sure it’s not UL, but that’s for nerds lol
awesome
Thanks Roberta
Love your work, but wish you'd also include metric measurements/weights as well for the 95% of the world that don't use the imperial system (useless fact - only The USA, Myanmar and Liberia use it!)
That’s great feedback that I will be sure to include in my future videos. Appreciate the kind words.
They also make the same Dagger Osmo in a 3P tent!! It only weighs 8 ounces more than the 2P. That’s an option with two large dogs
We’re pretty confident that we can make it work with the 2P and both dogs, but the 3P was bigger then I’d want to use on my own.
Great review mate, cheers! was wondering, how often does the rear of your RV scrape the road ??
Great question. It’s pretty rare, because we are careful not to take on dips that are too aggressive.
3:29 spoke directly to me by name.... lmao
I can't be your only metric viewer?
Just the only one I’m buddies with
I want this tent
Use discount code #AboutTrout
Thanks for the information. Will the tent work well in cold weather? Be well. Happy Trails!
Pete, this is what is considered a 3 season tent, so it’s not designed for heavy winter, with big snows. That being said, if you live somewhere that gets cold, but doesn’t snow a ton, I’d see no reason the dagger wouldn’t be a great fit!
I personally reply on my layers and my sleeping system for all of my warmth. The tent is simply there to keep my dry and away from bugs.
Thanks for watching and I hope that helps.
@@OutdoorsPodcast Thank you. This is helpful. Best wishing.
You bet!
As far as the landing zone, is there only one? I'm pretty sure I have made up my mind on the dagger 3p but for some reason I always envisioned it coming with one for each side.
They only come with 1 but I’m pretty sure you can buy additional ones as well
What do you think about using this tent as 1 person tent? I’m about 5’11” 240 lbs so I would like some space to spread out a bit but wondering if this is overkill.
I use it personally as a one person tent. Certainly going to make it a little heavier than other options, but I love it.
Nice video! I cannot figure out how to attach the landing zone! what am I missing
There are some little loops to connect it to along the tent body. Let me see if I can find a video that does a better job showing the connection.
Fantastic tent but they don't give you enough stakes for the guy lines. Did you buy the mini
groundhogs?
Actually I go with the full size groundhogs personally.
My only concern is the plastic snaps and hardware at the stake area for the rain fly. What do you think?
I haven’t heard of anyone having breaking problems. I certainly haven’t
I'm really interested in this tent. Right up there with quality of MSR and Big Agnes (and price, lol) , but with some other features I like more. A big factor for me is the green rainfly for those times you might want to be a little more inconspicuous in the woods, that's always been a factor with tents I've bought in the past. But the one thing that really gets my goat is that it doesn't come with a footprint. However, a footprint is included with their more lower line model the "Aurora" (which still isn't cheap). What's up with that? So spend more, get less? I've always stuck with more entry level, but still quality tents, and they came with footprints, which surprised me. Just seems like to me if you're willing to ante up in price, an included footprint should be a foregone conclusion. But apparently I'm wrong. I know they make one specifically for the Dagger, just sold separately. But they also have a lifetime warranty, as oppose to a limited one. Maybe I'll put them to the test. Though I'd rather not have to send my tent back to be replaced or fixed. Wouldn't it just be cheaper to include the footprint? But they're probably banking on the fact that people would just buy a new one if it was damaged. That's how they getcha.
Kevin I understand but my bet is that not everyone uses a foot print…myself included. I haven’t used a footprint with my backpacking tents…pretty much ever, and I’ve never had a problem. It really depends on where you are backpacking and the terrain you are partial to setting your tent up in.
If they included it standard, a bunch of folks like me would just leave it in a closet somewhere and never use it, and that’s a lot of wasted material and you get the idea.
Do the MSR or the Big Agnes come with them standard? I’d be surprised if they do. You can always just make a footprint out of some construction tyvec, that’s probably lighter and stronger anyways, that’s what I use for my hammock ground tarps. Best of luck with whatever you decide and thanks for watching. Make sure you subscribe, bunch of new gear videos coming soon
@@OutdoorsPodcast I can see that point. A buddy I camp with has a Kelty that came without a footprint and he's used it for years and years without a problem as well. But I know he would use the footprint had it came with one.
I just think for the price, why not include the footprint? Especially when their "lower" end model comes with one, I guess that's the part that doesn't make sense to me. Oh well. The Aurora was on my radar, and looks to be a solid tent and gets great reviews as well, but the biggest complaint I see is that it has only a single zipper, which I think would also be a sticking point for me.
Other than the footprint thing, the Dagger looks to be a great tent! Thanks for doing the review, it was definitely a lot more in depth than others I've seen and cleared up some questions I had.
@@MrStkrdknmibalz9799 I really appreciate that compliment. I do these videos and you never know if people really get any value out of them, so I'll keep trying to be prepared and put the effort into making them good.
Came here for the tent review but I have questions about what it is sitting on. Did you drive your stakes thru it? What is it?
It’s an outdoor rug, that’s a plastic woven material. I did drive steaks through it because the weave is loose enough that it didn’t damage the rug.
Hey man so I finally got my dagger osmo 2p and we are min-maxing on the weight so we chose this instead of the 3p. My question is, with you and Sarah, can you actually fit 2 Rapide SL’s in there because I know it says 50in internal but i’m measuring now it seems like it cant take 2 of the 25inches
We didn't have any problems getting them to lay flat. They are tight don't get me wrong, but it should work for you.
@@OutdoorsPodcast thanks so much!
OK, but the copper Spur 2p is 1 lb lighter...
ahhhhh I love comments like these! Are you planning on camping by yourself or with another person?
Hey wonder why you chose this tent vs the MSd hubba hubba?
The hubby hubba is a great choice, I liked the hardware on the Nemo better, the 6 inches of additional length on the interior and for the way the rain fly rolls back to really open things up. I also like the color of the Nemo a lot more, and I have a couple friends who have really enjoyed their Nemo tents. I think you’d be really happy with either choice.
@@OutdoorsPodcast Awesome thanks for reply. Upgrading from an MSR Elixir 2 so I'm sure either would be good. Hard choice: Weight of Hubba Hubba vs space of Nemo. Anyway glad you're enjoying the neemo!
You’ll enjoy the hubba hubba for sure. I also have a durston x-mid that I use if I’m going solo or really trying to keep the weight down!
I don't use the landing zone...id have the ability to open the vestibules up without removing it!
Totally get that.
what if used in winter will the tent be useful??
I’m curious, what would make you believe it wouldn’t be?
@@OutdoorsPodcast because i need tent for winter hikking
how many landing zones it has?
It comes with one but you can buy an additional one for the other side.
