Reviews & Ratings for NEMO Equipment Galaxi 2 Tent - 2 Person, 3 Season — 11 reviews — Page 1

The only reason I'm not giving this tent 5 stars, is that I haven't been able to see how this tent will hold up in wet/windy weather. I haven't had time to spray it down myself. Saying that, all seams seemed well covered/taped. Easy pitch and strike of the tent. Easy entry and exit. Great vestibule size. Quality product form top to bottom. Speaking of 'bottom', the footprint is included. I love the 'earth' color. I like to blend in and not color pollute. I haven't purchased a tent since early 2000's, so I still have 2 old Walrus tents that are still in great shape. This is a little heavier than my Arch Rival, which is not freestanding. So 3 things appealed to me on this tent, size, color, and 2 vestibules, which are great size, 11 sq. ft. each. I love the spreader bar on top that helps keep my shoulders off of the wall when sitting up. I'll be interested to see how well it works for the drip line in the rain. I like the spreader bar on the fly/entry for ventilation. It seems like it could give more ventilation than regular top fly vents. I really love the magnet door holder as apposed to a toggle. Super simple! Time will tell how long the magnets will last. I compared this tent to 2 other top tents, I think I made the right choice, and thank you Campsaver for the awesome price!

Easy to set up, plenty of room for 2 and packs up well. Not the lightest weight option but reasonable and good for the price.

Great quality tent! We also got the Losi 3P tent that is priced at double the value of the Galaxi 2P but as far as quality and smart design, the Galaxi wins hands down.

This is a very well made, and very well thought out tent.
It is perfect for mild weather when you won't need the storm cover. Lots of netting for breathability and view.

This tent is built very well and has very heavy duty fabric. The fact that it comes with a footprint puts it as the best backpacking 2 person tent in the $200-$300 price category IMHO. The inside dimension just fits my wife's 20"x 72" sleeping pad next to my 25" x 77" sleeping pad. I'm 6'-6" and I BARELY fit head to toe... my long size sleeping bag touches both ends. My wife and I are very "cozy" inside this bad boy, but I see no need for a bunch of extra space and weight in a backpacking tent. We actually go up into the back country, and we sleep warmer in the smaller tents anyway... we actually used an REI Nitelite for 15 years, and this tent is MUCH roomier, self supporting, and the same weight. Love it.
My only gripe is I wish the rain fly had some sort of recess to keep the ridge pole centered on the area that is reinforced with double thick material. I erect the tent so the fly so that it is perfectly centered, but it seems to want to walk slightly sideways so that it is pushing on the single layer fabric area... makes me worried it will puncture over time. Overall an awesome husband/wife backpacking tent.

Very solid construction, love the earth military look. Will be using for motorcycle touring, and with the large vestibules should work great

Great heavy duty well made tent. Nemo always makes quality tent and for the price it's a steal. The weight is a bit on the heavy side but it's still a great backpacking tent.

Excellent

A bargain of a tent, packed with great features and superbly constructed! So spacious inside, and sets up quickly. The light pocket is genius! The space, durable construction, and features are well worth the added weight. Nemo is awesome!

Really impressed by this tent. For $250 you get a Nemo quality tent PLUS a footprint! The tents sets up really easily (1 hub pole construction), and the inside is spacious. I am 6'6 and fit easily inside. And at under 5 lbs this tent does great in the backcountry or car camping. I think it is the best in its class, and would highly recommend it!
