The new NEMO Dragonfly OSMO 1P Tent is a spacious and light-weight shelter packed with useful features and adaptability to enjoy your nights under the stars.
Nemo says:
Dragonfly OSMO offers an ideal balance of weight and livability in a freestanding tent, and it’s now made with NEMO’s proprietary OSMO™ fabric for enhanced performance and sustainability. Several years in the making, our OSMO 100% recycled composite fabric is PFAS-free, repels water 4x longer, and stretches 3x less when wet — all while boasting a 20% increase in strength compared to similar fabrics.
Dragonfly OSMO features generously sized doors and asymmetrical vestibules for easy entry and access to bulkier gear. Inside, a gear loft and gear pockets keep belongings neatly stored and out of the way, while an overhead Nightlight Pocket™ casts headlamp light with a warm, even glow. Best-in-class, durable Y stakes and Jake’s Foot pole clips are included to make the pitching process even smoother and more secure. Our updated Divvy Cube™ stuff sack allows for easily splitting the weight with a partner and stows more efficiently in your pack.
Backed by NEMO’s Lifetime Warranty, the feature-packed, ultralight Dragonfly OSMO soars above the competition.
Our Verdict
Nemo's Dragonfly OSMO Tent is One of the first in a new range of tents built with NEMO’s new OSMO™ fabric. Made from 100% recycled materials, free of any harmful PFCs or PFAS, this new poly-nylon maximizes performance without impacting the environment. Made from a weave of strong, lightweight nylon and, a dimensionally stable (doesn’t stretch) polyester, which also doesn’t absorb water. NEMO has created a new fabric, that holds its shape better, has improved water repellency, and also saves weight.
this a spacious light-weight 3 season shelter with plenty of features. There is an impressive head height across the width of tent thanks to the cross pole.
The colour coordinated 2 pole set up is quick and easy. I like the use of buckles to attach the fly to the inner, quick and strong. Storage wise inside you have 2 side mesh pockets and a large overhead pockets. There are also 2 light diffusing pockets to use your head torch in.
The side vestibules are large enough for storing big rucksacks which is necessary as with 2 people with mats and sleeping bags there is little spare room. The fly is relatively high off the ground especially at the ends which could be a concern with strong winds, careful pitching advised.
Another feature I really like is being able to fully roll back and secure the doors and to really enjoy the view unhindered and for ease of entry and exit.
