Which pads fit
Tight, 1 in from the wall. Sit-up room +5.4 in.
They don't fit side by side: 3.9 in past the wall.
An inch or more to every wall. Sit-up room +5.4 in.
They don't fit side by side: 1.4 in past the wall.
Pads side by side at their listed sizes, with the average man (5 ft 9 in) lying on each. "Tight" is under an inch to a wall or the sloping roof: the fabric gives, but a wet wall wets what touches it. Open it in TentCheck to try your own pads, cots and gear, or read how fits are checked.

The numbers

|---|---|
| Peak | 44 in (3 ft 8 in) |
| Vestibules | 8 sq ft |
| Sleeps (maker) | 2 |

| Packed volume | 10.6 L |
| Regular pads that fit | 1 with an inch to every wall, 2 squeezed in |
| Sit-up room on a pad, at the peak | +8 in for 35 in sitting height |

| Groundsheet to cut | About 80 × 48/39 in |
On the campsite
Floor and vestibules together cover 82 × 74.2 in. On a square tent pad, as campgrounds list them: 8 × 8 ft: fits; 10 × 10 ft: fits; 12 × 12 ft: fits. Guylines and stakes need more room around that.
For a groundsheet, cut it a little smaller than the floor, about 2 in, so rain running off the fly doesn't collect on it and run under the tent: about 80 × 48/39 in.
Notes
Floor 82 × 50/41 in, 44 in peak, one door with an 8 ft² vestibule. A 3-4 season tent with a low, tapered profile; NEMO does not say which wall the door is on.
