Attention camping geeks: Nemo's lightweight Morpho AR tent is erected sans clumsy poles thanks to inflatable "airbeams"--supposedly twice as strong as standard aluminum poles. The 4.8-pound, 40 sq. ft. tent cozily houses two people and takes around 45 seconds to set up.
thanks rayna!

Hm, bit of a copycat vibe here though. To my knowledge, these Dutch guys were first.

I have seen their craftsmanship, and it's very impressive to see such quality in these disposable times. Mind you, Karsten only makes fairly heavy tents, so Nemo does have a legitimate position in this segment. I do hope however, that the increasing popularity of these inflatable tents won't cause the companies that originally started producing quality goods to go under due to the inevitable competition from companies that aren't interested in making a decent product. This world doesn't just need companies and designers who make an effort to produce and design quality products, it also needs to make sure that they get a chance to keep doing precisely that.
Nice tent. Purchased one and have taken it on several camping trips. It is a high quality tent. I use it motorcycle camping and hasn't given me one problem. Thumbs up on this tent!!
