I was thinking about getting a blind this year as well. My wife will be going out with me a few times and wanted to make her comfortable, but couldnt see dropping alot on $$ on somehting that will only get used a few times a year. So instead I bought the Gorilla Gear adjustable blind. I know, it doesnt have a roof but you can set it up in awkward areas and while sitting in a nice fold out chair, it has plenty of concealment.
