Nemo Hornet Tent
At 2lb 6 oz packed weight for a 2-person tent this is about as ultralight as it gets! NEMO makes some incredibly solid gear that do a great job withstanding the elements. 85" x 51"/43" dimensions on this one so enough room for 1 person and plenty of extra gear or a 2-person endeavor with space in the vestibules for storage. 1-pole system makes it incredibly easy to set up and take down. The Nemo Hornet's rain fly is secure AND easy to attach. You can set this bad boy up in all conditions, including some less than ideal (think mountain lake at night in some nasty winds).
Lightweight and easy to pack. This packs down to a slender 19.5"x5.5", and it's trail weight is 1lb15oz. Very hard to beat anywhere on the market. Short of switching over to a bivy or tarp, it's hard to get any lighter than this. And it does not sacrifice strength and durability. Comparing it to it's ultralight counterpart, the Big Agnes Fly Creek, it is much tougher, stands up to wind better, and will have a longer life.
The Hornet being a 3 season tent allows for versatility along with the ultralight allowing for extensive backcountry trips. Combining durability, breathability, and extreme lightweight coming in at just under two pounds packaged weight, the Hornet provides good space and comfort!
Nemo Aurora Tent w/ Footprint
This is a spacious 3-season tent from a high quality brand. It comes with an included footprint which will help protect the floor of the tent and extend its life, and its packed weight is 6lbs 8oz. It's perfect for using while backpacking and car camping alike!
Relatively lightweight, 3-season camping. More room and headspace than Nemo's ultralight models.
Backpacking trips or just a great all around multi-use tent.
Nemo Dragonfly Tent
This thing basically weighs nothing. The 1 person option weighs 2 lbs 10 oz - super lightweight and high quality. NEMO makes some solid gear - their tents last for years! This one has large doors with versatile vestibules, a high-arching main pole for a lofty feel, and super easy setup with color-coded poles and matched webbing.
A top-of-the-line contender for a ultralight, quality backpacking or thru-hiking with features like double doors/vestibules, lighting pockets and a freestanding design.
Great price for an ultralight 1 person, NEMO makes some solid tents that are easy to set up. 2 lbs 13 oz
Nemo Wagontop Tent
This 6-person tent has 97 sq ft of interior space, plus a large 27 sq ft vestibule to create a screened porch! Large windows on all sides provide ventilation and air flow, while the DWR waterproofing provides protection from the elements. Does not have a room divider, although the vestibule creates a large enough space to have separation between gear and sleep space! NEMO is a great brand, and offers a lifetime warranty on all of their tents!

Feature rich, standing room height making walking in and out easy, panoramic windows, a MASSIVE front vestibule you can use for gear storage or as a kitchen, patio - the options are limitless. Super durable and weather-proof - let me show you a video on this one! Backed by Nemo's lifetime warranty.
