Nemo Equipment Chogori 3 Person Dome Tent Review

The Chogori 3 has one window and two doors and a maximum center height of 3' 10, which is a tiny bit less than the average height of the 160 various 3 person tents we have studied. With 44 square feet of room inside, it is a little bit smaller than some other 3-person tents, and it could be a little cramped for you and, up to two other campers throughout the 4-seasons, this tent is suggested for use in, smaller tents similar to this one can generally make a fantastic choice for campers who love spending heaps of time outside the tent exploring.

Many of the great things about dome tents are, that they are for, the most part light, making them easy to carry around. In nearly all cases, tents used for backpacking are of the dome type. They are generally speaking, freestanding and very simple to set up. In calm weather, you could do without securing the tent with stakes and ropes, not that this is recommended.

Dome tents are without a doubt the most commonly seen of all the various types of tents you will find when camping. They tend to fair better in the rain than other types, allowing water to roll off the sloped walls, unlike cabin tents that have flat tops, allowing the rain to pool on the roof. The simplest dome tent will have a rectangular footprint, sloped walls a couple of poles which converge in the middle of the roof. Because of their construction, it is usually considered that they are ideal for up to a maximum of 6 people.

Underneath you can find a list of the tent's pros and cons.

PROS

1. Freestanding. The Chogori can support its own weight on any terrain. It does not even have to be staked down in most cases. But in case of strong winds, it is always best to secure it to the ground with the included steel stakes and guylines.
2. Vestibules. Having two vestibules. Affords 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 stuff.
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. Durable, water-resistant floor. The floor material is 70D PeU Nylon, which is a substantially thick and high-strength fabric. Meaning the base is not prone to rips and punctures. Also, the material has a 5000 mm waterproofing rating, which is very good for most circumstances.
6. Other sizes are available. Nemo Equipment has also made this model available in Other Sizes.

CONS

1. Not roomy. With a floor area of 44 square feet, the Chogori 3 is smaller than quite a few of the 165 other 3 person tents we have looked at.
2. Lacking in Headroom. With 5% less headroom than similar sized tents, one can see how this could be a negative thing for some campers.
3. Rainfly does not wholly cover the tent. The rainfly only covers the ceiling and part of the tent body from the top. Meaning it might not protect against heavy rain.
4. Footprint not Included. There is no included footprint, The floor may be made of 70D PeU Nylon but it is still best to protect it further with a footprint, more so on rough terrain.
5. A little heavy for backpacking. Even though the Chogori 3, looks like a small tent, it is not probably the best choice for backpacking as it weighs 8 pounds. This is quite a lot more than many other backpacking tents
6. Sloping walls. Even though Dome tents have heaps of qualities to rave about. The sloping sides do tend to make it all the more smaller inside.
