Don't do it, they are loud, cold, no foot room, terrible windows, peices of junk. And expensive.

I have 2 of them, they are only good if you brace them with 2" x 4"s. As far as the size, doesn't bother me since I am only 6' tall. Anybody taller would be cramped.

I hunted out of my buddy's Blynd a couple of times. It does pop a lot when it heats up/cools down, but nothing loud enough to spook the deer. Overall, I thought it was a decent stand, plus it's light and easy to move.

They are easy to move but even in a tower I don't like all the noise when you move the least little bit, I hate trying to tie a blind down in sandy country like ours, I build em out of wood and seal them, haven't had any complaints and there rock solid. Those black blinds are cold just like being outside on ground.

The only thing good about them is that they are light weight and easily movable.

The light weight is extremely beneficial while transporting them to the dump

We have a couple that were on our lease when we got there, impossible to get in one before daylight without sounding like a heard of rhinos wrestling in a dumpster 
I feel more like I do now then I did when I got here.

I think you can build a better blind at Lowe's or Home Depot for less money

We have 6 of them on our place. They are great if you carpet them. I agree a fat ars cant get into them w/o bitching, but for the price (about 250 single)its easier than building one. We have one or two thats over 10yrs and still holding together strong. They are very warm and wind proof, but if you dont have them tied down....they fly like a kit. JMHO

JMHO Where can you find one for $250? I thought they were higher than that. Doesn't their website say $650?

Easy to set up but if its just even warm they are absolutely hot on the inside being black.
