I currently use the Nano Elite. (I have had a Tarptent and a Big Agnes in the past as well) I like the Nemo tent enough as it is truly freestanding and very light (under three pounds) for its volume. My only gripe is that it 's not as breathable as I would prefer. This is fine for dry nights because the door can be fully mesh all night. But you get wrapped in pretty tight in the rain. If I were to get another tent today it might be the snug Black Diamond HiLight. It is marketed as a 1.5 man tent. It is "snug" as in 6 footers sleep diagonally. Not a problem for one. I do wish, however, the front door window could be zipped open further down. I do like a full mesh door.
