Based on here,
After Nemo file manager installation, set Nemo as default File-Manager and allow desktop handling by Nemo open Terminal (Press Ctrl+Alt+T) and copy the following commands in the Terminal:
xdg-mime default nemo.desktop inode/directory application/x-gnome-saved-search
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons false
gsettings set org.nemo.desktop show-desktop-icons true
Now enter this command in terminal to check that now Nemo is your default file manager :
xdg-mime query default inode/directory
If you want to go back with Nautilus as default File Manager try these commands:
xdg-mime default nautilus*.desktop inode/directory application/x-gnome-saved-search
gsettings set org.nemo.desktop show-desktop-icons false
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons true

After changing, the places function in the top bar didn't work anymore. Removing and re-enabling it made it work with Nemo.

You can easily install nemo without cinnamon dependencies, as shown here:
Warning: do not use this PPA if you're using Linux Mint or if you use
Cinnamon in Ubuntu! Also, if you've added any Cinnamon PPAs, remove
them before using the WebUpd8 Nemo PPA even if you didn't install
Cinnamon, or else the Nemo version in the WebUpd8 Nemo PPA might be
overwritten.
Install Nemo:
Update: the PPA now provides Nemo 2.6 for Ubuntu 14.04, 14.10 and
15.04!
Add the PPA and install the latest Nemo with Unity tweaks/fixes by
using the commands below:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/nemo
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nemo nemo-fileroller
