[img] http://forum.gon.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=629063&stc=1&d=1319716310[/img] We put a side load of 800lbs on a blind. This equals a 95+ mph wind. As you can see the blind flexed but did not fail. The mounting straps also held up very well. There is a bad stigma about plastic being cheap and flimsy. This should prove otherwise. Good Luck in the Woods Formex

my only problem with plastic is if you accidently bump it, it's a heck of a lot louder than other materials... it is good to see a quality one though.

There are several stores that carry them as well as sportsman guide. Snap lock hunting blinds are what they are called. They are doubled walled to help with the noise and insulation. This also makes them a lot stronger than the single wall blinds.
Happy hunting
