Nemo Equipment Galaxi 2 Person Dome Tent Review

The Galaxi 2 has two doors and a maximum center height of 3' 3, which is 10 inches smaller than the average height of the 235 different 2 person tents we have studied. With 32 square feet of space inside, it is a little bit smaller than some other 2-person tents, and it could be a little cramped for you and, another camper throughout the 3-seasons, this tent is suggested for use in, smaller tents similar to this one generally make a very good choice for people who welcome spending lots of time outside the tent exploring.

Some of the great things about dome tents are, that they are under normal circumstances lightweight, making them easy to carry around. In nearly all instances, tents used for backpacking are of the dome type. They are generally speaking, freestanding and very straightforward to set up. In calm weather, you can do without guy lines and stakes, not that this is recommended.

Dome tents are without a doubt the most commonly seen of all the different types of tents you will see when camping. They tend to do better in the rain than other types, allowing rain to roll off the slanted walls, unlike cabin tents that have flat tops, allowing the rain to pool on the top of the tent. The simplest dome tent should have a rectangular floor, sloped walls two or more poles which converge in the center of the roof. Because of their construction, it is typically considered that they are ideal for up to a maximum of 6 campers.

PROS

1. Freestanding. The Galaxi can support its own weight on any terrain. It does not need to be staked down in most cases. But in case of strong winds, it is always best to secure it to the floor with the included steel stakes and guylines.
2. Vestibules. Having two vestibules. Offers you a place to store shoes and other items that can get dirty, muddy, this is a huge plus.
3. Internal storage. It is good to see Nemo Equipment has added a gear loft and pockets in the interior to store some of your gear.
4. More than one door. With 2 doors, it is easier to get in and out of the tent, in the middle of the night if needed.
5. Includes FootPrint. It is quite rare to see a footprint included with a tent. It is suggested to always use a footprint, so not having to buy one is a bonus.
6. The rainfly completely covers the tent body. The rainfly covers the entire body of the tent from the top to the bottom and has a waterproof rating of 0mm. Meaning it will easily protect you against heavy rain.

CONS

1. Not spacious. With a floor area of 32 square feet, the Galaxi 2 is smaller than quite a few of the 246 other 2 person tents we have looked at.
2. Lacking in Headroom. With 10% less headroom than similar sized tents, one can see how this could be a negative factor for some campers.
3. Discontinued: Unfortunately this particular tent has been discontinued on the manufactures site and is not available elsewhere, that we are aware of.
4. Sloping walls. Even though Dome tents have many attributes to be positive about. The sloping walls do tend to make it all the more smaller inside.
