It’s always awesome to see someone set up their new tent for the first time, enjoy the building process and the time spent in it, not to mention the satisfaction knowing that hard earned money is well spent. ☺️
Thanks for doing this great set-up video! I got mine and was trying to put it up in the house for the first time to figure it out (I'm used to much smaller tents). Besides scaring my dogs, there was just no room and I couldn't visualize what went where. After watching this it all makes sense and I'm excited to get out and try it!
Stumbled across your vid during my tent research, and I thought I'd share my findings and experience. First you want to make sure to tuck your tarp under when it rains, or you'll wake up soggy, or spurge for the matching footprint for your tent. Second I always count up how many stakes and buy triblade stakes cohglands makes a great one for a pretty affordable price. Pretty nice tent tho! I ended up getting the northface wewona 6p for the large vestibule. Looking forward to finding your vids in my recommended!
Yes I always keep my tarp smaller than the tent. The front part that sticks out on this tent is covered by the porch/vestibule on the front. I do need to cut 2 little triangles off of it that stick out a little. That'll also make it easier to know which edge of the tarp is the front. I'll check into the triblade stakes, Thanks!
I saw a video on the Northface Wewona 6 p tent and it looked like it is only good for hot weather as the back door part is only mesh. Very breezy and would allow a lot of dew to come in and soak everything.
Wow ! what a big tent ! I could imagine you snuggling inside with your motorcycle 😅 . I dont think you should close the vent thats left open as its a single wall tent and its needed to avoid condensation , even more in winter with the colder temperature. Thanks for the fantastic review Sylvain , from Québec, Canada
My biggest concern would be lack of a separate fly and lack of bathtub floor. I’m in Ontario Canada and the weather can be highly unpredictable with big snap or multi day storms move through where it rains for days on end. Don’t know how this design would hold up.
I've been through several Texas storms and Colorado storms. No leaks a year in. But hey if it leaks for you it has a lifetime warrantee. I'll be posting a One Year video soon on this tent.
looks like a great set up for a trip where you are spending at least 3 nights in the same place. I like a small quick set up if you are moving camp daily. its looks like a wonder tent, ride safe and camp well!
What a nice comfortable looking setup. I was actually looking at the Nemo but ended up going with a larger 6p tent since I’d be using it with my wife and a dog or two. Also had to upgrade the pad to the MegaMat max duo as well. Now if only I could convince my wife to let me buy another motorcycle 🥲
This is such a wonderful video! Thank you for all the detail shots. And thank you for showing the tent in the stuff sack. That is a detail that a lot of videos lack! I am looking for a tent for everyday use while living on a motorcycle. I'm planning for all weather conditions. Would you say this seems sturdy enough to stand up to that kind of extended use? I have looked at canvas tents but the weight is just way too much for the type of off-road riding I plan to do. I feel like this tent would be worth it as long as I could get a full year of every day use before I need to replace it.
I motorcycle camp but I pull a trailer behind my bike. It may be big if you are just carrying it on your bike. But It also has a lifetime warrantee so it should last you a very long time. I've had mine almost a year. It's been through some pretty big storms and held up very well.
A reviewer on Amazon said the tent stood up to massive and sustained rains. It looks like Nemo took a proper 3 season tent design and scaled it up. Definitely giving this tent a look
I haven't yet. I was hoping I would get a little rain on this trip. I'm pretty confident the windows won't leak. The window flap goes a good foot further on both sides and they are slopped for drainage. As far as ventilation the 2 upper windows can be left open during rain. In fact one is always open. It made for good ventilation when I was burning my buddy heater.
Always been a rainfly type of guy , was wondering if you have ever had the tent in a torrential down pour and how it handled condensation and how dry it stayed
Yes I've been in several storms with it. It did great no leaks. It stays ventilated well with the window over the door. So no condensation inside either.
That thing is huge! I think you could park the bike in it if you wanted. Full standing room would be great during nasty weather when you're stuck in the tent for hours. Looks like it has excellent ventilation for hot summer nights.
It was nice in the winter with my Buddy heater. I had my chair and table in it. I could hang out an extra hour after I got up in the morning while it warmed up outside a little more.
Did you feel like you got enough ventilation when sleeping on the cot or what's your opinion if you were sleeping lower to the ground? Could a short lady reach up to hook those tabs to the fasten the back of tent to the top? Approximately what's the height in the back where you need to connect?.. please advise .. What's the appropriate weight in dimensions of the tent once returned to it's case bag? Curious did you need to fold in half like it came or were able to roll it? Please advise & thank you.....
I show the packed size in this video: ua-cam.com/video/zILqSo3CPOA/v-deo.html When packing it a fold it in half and then in half again. Then I roll it up. Plenty of room in the bag. I get great ventilation sleeping on a cot. I'm 5'10" and I can reach the top clips ok. I guess it depends on how short you are. Might need a bucket to stand on if you are too short.
Hope it is. I'm looking for one. Hope it comes in stealth colors. Doesn't matter if it is the greatest tent past, present, future. Can't own anything but stealth colors just in case it's needed. Will it stand a violent thunderstorm?
This tent only comes in this color. But Nemo makes some very hi quality camping gear. They have some stealthy green tents, Check them out! alnk.to/esRsO0C
I've been through several hard storms with it with no leaks. The way the windows are designed they don't leak. I may show it a little better in this video: ua-cam.com/video/zILqSo3CPOA/v-deo.html
The one I have is a 4 man. It also comes in a 6 man and an 8 man tent. Even my 4 man has more room than my old 4 man because the old one was a dome. The side being pushed out on the Nemo helps a lot. I can put my cot all the way to the edge of the floor. Here is the 8-man: alnk.to/3TX0Cvn
It's designed to where it doesn't need one. I rode out some big storms in Estes Park, CO a couple weeks ago. I thought I was in a hurricane. No leaks at all.
I also have this tent...yes! Best ever. What I strongly recommend, however, to those campers (like Steve) who might have "other stuff," or "more stuff" (like a motorcycle, for instance), is to purchase the NEMO accessory extension which zips to the front of the "porch," and which is called the "GARAGE." It's plenty big enough to allow a LOT of extra, covered and weather protected space, for equipment storage, or even to be "outside" but "inside" at the same time. Look into it folks!
My biggest concern would be lack of a separate fly and lack of bathtub floor. I’m in Ontario Canada and the weather can be highly unpredictable with big snap or multi day storms move through where it rains for days on end. Don’t know how this design would hold up
They all close except the one over the door. But the little cover on the front closes. That helps it from getting condensation inside. Especially when running a Little Buddy heater.
@@SteveOutdoors Do you think if I used an air purifier it would work? I'm very chemically sensitive and trying to find a spacious tent where I can control the air quality. Are you saying there's an outside cover to the windows over the front door? : )
@@sea_hous There's a vestibule that goes on the front. That's the part you see sticking out. If you wanted to seal it up more you could always cut a piece of a tarp and fasten it with Velcro tape over the front top window. I thought about doing that for wintertime but when I winter camp I use my heater that needs outside ventilation so I never did the Velcro thing. When the weather is nice and there's no chance of rain I don't use the vestibule and I open all the windows.
@@SteveOutdoors Awesome! We camped in white river forest near Leadville last weekend. Our Coleman tent has a few more trips left in it before time to change it out. Nice video showing the tent!
Nice video. I will have to look at this tent as I’m in the market. Not a fan of the background music playing on a loop. Would prefer not to hear that for 25 minutes. Maybe future videos can do without. Thanks again for posting though. Hope you are still enjoying your tent.
Hello I was hoping you could help me out. I am looking for different kinds of tents or shelters unique to their area we maybe haven seen sort of like what Australia uses its called a swag tent and until the last few years not many people this side of the pond knew anything about them and that made me wonder are there other tents or shelters (whatever you want to call it).in different parts of the world that we just haven't seen yet and i am having a hard time with the searches and so thought maybe I would ask around and see if people could point me in the right direction or hell perhaps make a video on the subject cause I know nobody else has..anyhow thanks
Wow, I've never had help setting mine up. To me it's much easier than my old Coleman tent trying to slide the pole into the little sleeve was so frustrating. Sorry you had a bad experience.
Going to disagree with you Steven. I have the NEMO 4p., I'm 74, and I still set it up BY MYSELF. You just have to know the proper steps, and be precise. It is not a difficult tent to set up. I do it in 15-20 minutes, ALONE.
First time setting up and you've already determined it's the best tent ever? Give it time. Any gear has issues. Everything is a give and take. I like nemo and considered this for overlanding but it takes way too long to setup
Well I've had it for 2 years now. It's still the best tent I've owned. Here is another video I made after using it for a year: ua-cam.com/video/zILqSo3CPOA/v-deo.html
@@SteveOutdoors I have the T3 and it takes torrential rains amazingly well but yes is very bulky, heavy and I hate the doors, that’s why I’m checking your videos. I’m debating between this and the Kelty Rumpus 6 person I love the huge vestibule. My only concern about the Nemo is wether is going to keep me warm since you have that top vent open 24/7, I sleep cold and have a 15 year old dog that freezes easily. I camp in the Sierras most of time with many nights in the 30s.
@@carmenmartinez2882 With the front vestibule on the vent isn't really a problem. In fact it keeps the condensation from forming inside the tent. When I camp with temps in the 20's I use a Buddy heater to make it nice and toasty before I go to bed. Then I crank it up again in the morning.
@@SteveOutdoors yeah I’m chicken, temps in the low 30s and I’ll use the heater for about 15 minutes before going to bed. I’m still debating between this and the Kelty Rumpus 6 just a matter of which I think it’ll be easier to pitch by myself, mostly I camp solo with my dogs. I like the huge vestibule in the Kelty but I like the single wall of this one. Decisions, decisions. Lol
We're roughly similar in size and build, though I think I've got 5 or more years on you - wondering what you're using for padding under you while you sleep? This seems to be the point I keep getting stuck on - most padding is made for little stick-people, not for us big ol' bear-sized men. Any other age/size-related tips you've got would be greatly appreciated!
@@SteveOutdoors Hi Steve, what kind of cot is it? I've tried a couple now and they seem too saggy for me and shift too much. Suggestions very welcome. Love your whole set up. Looks great.
And the guy couldn´t find anything wrong with the tent??? Just watch how long time it takes to get it up!! I really hope this is not the pop-up model x-D
In my defense it was the first time setting it up and figuring it out. Sets up much faster now. Went through a big storm in Colorado last night in it. It held up great.
@@SteveOutdoors Thank you, Steve. What I remember anyway is that this is a good tent, because you tried it and you liked the quality. I trust in your advice, and thank you very much for your answer. Have a wonderful day!
We're stoked you love the tent Steve! Thank you so much for posting this video!
Looking at getting one of these and this video was helpful! Thanks for posting!
@@thisismelissaaaa You're welcome!
I'd buy it if it were in woodland camo....
Why'd you discontinue it!? It was such a great design. 😢

You made my mind up, I’m ordering one from REI.
Awesome. You’ll have to let me know how you like it.
Thanks Steve! For being honest, and straight up!
Nice bike and trailer. And nice tent set up. I like it. Nice tent!
Thank You! That was super informative. Do they make rain cover for the Wagon'Wheel'Tent?
Blessings and Safe Travels Always!🏞🇺🇸
It doesn't really need one. I rode out a couple of storms in it with not leaks.
This is the first of your videos I have watched.

Your setup is so cool and it looks so comfortable! I want to replicate it for my family of 4.
It is comfortable! For a family of 4 you'd probably want to get the Nemo Wagontop 8P
Hi Steve, thanks a lot for your VDO. Looks to be a very nice tent. Did you compare to the Moto tent from Lone Rider? Best regards, Alain from France
Nope, I don't own the Moto tent.
I have the same tent, the same cot and the same red table ! I feel lucky !
looks like a great set up for a trip where you are spending at least 3 nights in the same place. I like a small quick set up if you are moving camp daily. its looks like a wonder tent, ride safe and camp well!
Yes, I like to stay at least 2 nights in each camp spot. It gives me more time to explore.

Have you used the 6p yet? If so, were you able to see how it performed in wind/rain? I’m about to purchase a new tent and I love the design.
I would suggest a 3 man teepee with a small wood stove it has a hole for pipe of wood stove.i have one 10 minute set up

Steve, with the nemo 4p tent is the vestibule large enough to park your trailer in?
Not quite big enough

@Steve Allen Films have you been through any storms with the built in fly design? Hold up okay with no leaks? ❤️ nemo
I haven’t yet. I pretty confident it will hold up. I’m sure in the next couple months I’ll find out.
how does the tent to during rain? especially the windows, it is jut mesh and inside is just pull up. I do not see how rain will not go in.
I've been through several hard storms with it with no leaks. The way the windows are designed they don't leak.
I may show it a little better in this video:

Dig the nemo. Has it held up in strong wind?
I got to test that out while camping last week. One day I had 30 - 40 mph winds all day. I had all the guy ropes tied off and it did great!
Pretty snazzy tent!
Do they make a larger one like a 10-man tent that's a little small
The one I have is a 4 man. It also comes in a 6 man and an 8 man tent. Even my 4 man has more room than my old 4 man because the old one was a dome. The side being pushed out on the Nemo helps a lot. I can put my cot all the way to the edge of the floor. Here is the 8-man: alnk.to/3TX0Cvn

Can you do camping camps so we can go too ?
I must admit that is a cool tent..
Is there a rain fly for it and have you stayed in the rain with it. Just curious.
It's designed to where it doesn't need one. I rode out some big storms in Estes Park, CO a couple weeks ago. I thought I was in a hurricane. No leaks at all.
What is the carpet that you put down in the tent?
It's a picnic blanket from Amazon. It works great! Has a waterproof backing. Here is one just like it:

Could You imagine mounting such tent in the huge rain and fold it... Daily ?
Looks pretty cool 👍 cheers !
The true test of the tent is in rainy weather they all look good until the weather hits.
I agree 100%. I've been through some really big storms with this tent and not a drop of water leaked in.
the cabin tent with the disk looks to be a lot quicker and easier to set up than this.
That tent setup looks like an argument waiting to happen
This is why I own an ikamper rtt.

I've set it up in strong wind before. What I did was tie the guy ropes off as I'm setting it up. That way it won't blow away.
On a scale from one to tent

I'd love to answer your question just not sure what you are asking. Maybe rephrase the question?
Can you give a link or brand on the cot
It's a Camptime Roll-a-cot
I sold mine - hardest tent ever to put up - period (takes two to set up - poles could easily bend)
Wow, I've never had help setting mine up. To me it's much easier than my old Coleman tent trying to slide the pole into the little sleeve was so frustrating.

Without the rainfly, how do the windows keep the rain out?

Tarps help out when it rains and also keeps moisture from coming up to your tent from the ground. Plus it helps to protect the floor of your tent.
@@Chastity52 Check out the link for all my favorite camping gear. The pillow is in there.
Does it work well in warm weather?
I just bought it in January but It has great ventilation with the windows open.

That’s a lot of work with just the poles. I’ll go for a Gazelle t4 I think. Thanks for the video.
I don’t have room to haul the Gazelle in my little motorcycle trailer.
@@SteveOutdoors I have the T3 and it takes torrential rains amazingly well but yes is very bulky, heavy and I hate the doors, that’s why I’m checking your videos. I’m debating between this and the Kelty Rumpus 6 person I love the huge vestibule. My only concern about the Nemo is wether is going to keep me warm since you have that top vent open 24/7, I sleep cold and have a 15 year old dog that freezes easily. I camp in the Sierras most of time with many nights in the 30s.
@@carmenmartinez2882 With the front vestibule on the vent isn't really a problem. In fact it keeps the condensation from forming inside the tent. When I camp with temps in the 20's I use a Buddy heater to make it nice and toasty before I go to bed. Then I crank it up again in the morning.
@@SteveOutdoors yeah I’m chicken, temps in the low 30s and I’ll use the heater for about 15 minutes before going to bed. I’m still debating between this and the Kelty Rumpus 6 just a matter of which I think it’ll be easier to pitch by myself, mostly I camp solo with my dogs. I like the huge vestibule in the Kelty but I like the single wall of this one. Decisions, decisions. Lol
Nice set up!
Thanks!
How much money 💰
How well does this tent do in high wind?
I had some pretty strong winds. I had all the guy ropes tied out and it did great.
Hey bud does it come with the porch?
Yes, it's included.
new subscriber from Philippines 😁 nice tent sir.. hope your tent can deal in a heavy rain.
It has done great in a couple of big storms.
Been trying to get this Tent over here in UK for a couple of years unsuccessfully iam afraid
That’s a bummer.
We're roughly similar in size and build, though I think I've got 5 or more years on you - wondering what you're using for padding under you while you sleep? This seems to be the point I keep getting stuck on - most padding is made for little stick-people, not for us big ol' bear-sized men. Any other age/size-related tips you've got would be greatly appreciated!

Seems like, once that's all set up, you'd want to stay awhile
Just noticed - Texas - I'm in New Caney, just North of Houston. FB me - J.R. Barnes
I use a cot with an Exped self inflating pad on it. It's very comfortable.
@@SteveOutdoors Hi Steve, what kind of cot is it? I've tried a couple now and they seem too saggy for me and shift too much. Suggestions very welcome.
Love your whole set up. Looks great.
What size bed fits inside this 4P nemo tent?
I've only had a single cot in it with plenty of room to spare. It's 100 inches by 100 inches so you could technically fit a king size bed in there.
@@SteveOutdoors thank you sir!!
Looks great but seems a bit see though..? I would be concerned about privacy with this one.
It's not see through.
@@SteveOutdoors oh ok. Looked light a lot of light coming through on the video and I could have sworn I could see the inside through the front.
It would have to be tested in 30 to 40 mph winds before I'd buy one
I've had it in some big storms with winds that strong. It did great. Just make sure to use the guy ropes.
Over here in the uk we'd have 4 pakistani families living in that.
Don't let it kick yer butt.....lol
LOL, The first time's a little awkward.
Geez you made that look soo complicated!!
Yeah that was the very first time I set it up. Check out my one year review:
ua-cam.com/video/zILqSo3CPOA/v-deo.html
And the guy couldn´t find anything wrong with the tent??? Just watch how long time it takes to get it up!! I really hope this is not the pop-up model x-D
In my defense it was the first time setting it up and figuring it out. Sets up much faster now. Went through a big storm in Colorado last night in it. It held up great.
@@SteveOutdoors Thank you, Steve. What I remember anyway is that this is a good tent, because you tried it and you liked the quality. I trust in your advice, and thank you very much for your answer. Have a wonderful day!
Beautiful tent to much setup for me
It's actually much easier than I made it look. That was my first time figuring it out. I can set it up in 5 minutes easy now.
Yea.... For $600.00 I can stay in a cabin for a week instead.
I'm about to spend a month motorcycle camping all over the Rockies. It's hard to drag a cabin around with me on my bike. Luckily I can bring my tent.
High wind....no....stay away from this type of tent....key word
