“I don't recommend the Hornet. I just warrantied my Nemo Hornet 2P. The waterproof coating on the fly and tent was gone.”

“I used the Nemo Hornet 2P for a 700 mile section hike on the AT. While it's great in in dry weather and very light, it's not so good in wet weather. Setting it up in the rain is a problem, and the inside of the tent at the head gets wet in heavy rain.”

“The tent is a Nemo Hornet 2p. Fairly lightweight and I questioned its performance in high wind.”

“Wind was blowing the walls of the tent into my face, so sleeping was difficult. I should have added guy lines to the walls of my tent (Nemo Hornet 2p).”
