Just a “buyer beware” post. I recently ordered a Nemo Hornet OSMO 1P based off the listed specs and found some surprises:

Nemo lists the min weight of the Hornet OSMO 1P tent at 822 grams. According to their own website this number should include the weight of the stakes since the Hornet isn’t a free standing shelter (https://support.nemoequipment.com/hc/en-us/articles/360054179052-What-s-the-difference-between-packed-and-minimum-weight). This is incorrect, the 822g doesn’t include the weight of the stakes. With the stakes, the min weight is 946g (they ship some hefty stakes with it). Nemo customer service admitted that the article linked above is wrong and needs to be updated and that the listed min weight is just body + rainfly + pole for ALL shelters.

The product description states “The 3P weighs under three pounds, the 2P clocks in at only two pounds, and the 1-person is an airy 26 ounces.” That’s 737g, which is way under the listed min weight. No combination of body + rainfly + pole adds up to that number. Nemo customer service didn’t know where that number came from and it escalated my inquiry to the design team.

Just thought passing this along would be helpful to someone.
