If I had it to do all over again....I'd ;ikely buy the ASAT quickie blind for $250.
I bought a DB Matris in 2005 and it's been really solid. No issues.
I think blinds fit into two categories:
1. Disposable, 2-3yr models....
2. Blinds that'll last you SEVERAL years of hard use.
Mine fits the latter bill.
People can talk about price all they want to.....but most of these same people have no problems spending $200-4$400 more for a Bowtech.......when a Bear is the alternative.
It's either a great blind (or bow) or it isn't.....cost notwithstanding.
Good luck with your choice.
