RidgeNote verdict

The Tempo is the affordable entry to NEMO's Spoon-shape comfort: the roomy cut and vents make it far more pleasant for side sleepers than a traditional mummy, and synthetic fill keeps working when damp. It is heavier and bulkier than down, so choose it when budget and wet-weather reliability matter more than pack size.
