About the brand

NEMO Equipment was born on a turbulent night in 2002 on the side of Mount Washington, where founder Cam Brensinger spent five sleepless hours in a poorly designed bivy and realized how much better outdoor gear could be with thoughtful design. He founded NEMO that spring in Nashua, New Hampshire — naming it after Jules Verne's Captain Nemo, and, fittingly, 'New England Mountain Outfitters.' At Mountain Sports, we love NEMO for that problem-solving, design-first spirit: award-winning tents, sleeping bags, pads, and camp furniture engineered for real comfort and built to last.

Questions, answered

Before you buy.

Pulled from chats, emails and store visits. The things people actually ask us before they buy. Don't see yours?

Ask a question
What is the weight capacity?

Satellite™ is rated to a 350 lb weight capacity, supported by forged 6061 aluminum hubs and oversized 7001 aluminum tubes.

Will it sink into sand or soft ground?

It comes with a Platform Pack™ accessory that unfolds into a platform beneath the chair, adding stability on sand and other soft surfaces.

How do I clean and care for my chair?
  • Wipe the seat fabric and frame with a damp cloth and mild soap — avoid harsh detergents.
  • Rinse off sand, salt, and dirt after beach or coastal trips.
  • Air dry completely before packing it into its case.
  • Store in a dry place out of prolonged direct sunlight, since UV exposure weakens fabric over time.
What warranty does NEMO gear carry?

NEMO covers manufacturing defects under its warranty program, and many categories carry lifetime coverage. Bring it by the shop or call us — we'll help you sort out any claim with NEMO directly.
