I'll confess, I spoke for it. [:-]
I have one that I leave out year-round and it's finally falling apart, plus it turned a shade of pink that just doesn't match my eyes.
Actually, it has been a decent blind for the money, but not one I'd recommend too highly unless it's just for a "beginner's model" to see if you like hunting from one. The zippers soon broke and it turned pink in the sunlight! Now the fabric is "rotten" and rips if you bump it. I had a buddy that had an "outhouse" model that was even worse for falling apart.

Don't ever think that a hub blind is the whole answer I have 2 double bulls one reg and the other a recurve model from hell it pops up great but WILL NOT fold up without removing 2 of the poles from the sockets I have had corner tiedowns rip out etc. my regular DB will almost fold itself up but that recurve is junk I called the comapny if I want to pay shipping both ways they will LOOK at it I have an old cheap Rural king that I just took down yesterday it has few hickeys in it here and there but it still works great I think it is a ground max maybe it will stand 4 times the snow and ice accumilation than either of the double bulls and 4 times the wind.

Why are the hub designs so popular? I have two pop up blinds. The frame work comprises of four hoops and two sectioned poles. The only time I've been unhappy is when I wanted to shoot a longer recurve out of it. It takes less than 5 minutes to have it completely assembled and less to pack it away. Am I missing something?

I have the one spoken here and mine went up fine 3 yrs ago and when I tried to take it down afew days later I couldnt get it to do the fold and curl up thing so I drug it home, kinda folded it up(will never fit back into carry case)and its been in the garage since.
I bought the hub style this summer and its still up so I havnt had the pleasure of takeing it down yet...

I dont think I could give it away cause it to is a POS........

awshucks

Don, I just hate those segmented roof poles.I can't use the corner stakes here due to rocks, [most places]and tieng rocks to the corners is not the "A" answer, so when they roll around in the wind all night the poles for the roof get busted up.I know what you're thinking, and yes the dumb sob does know the hub type will roll around too, lol, just ready to hate something else new. And there is some self discipline involved, figur the hub will cost me 3 times what this pos did and I'll take it down when I leave, should increase longevity, lol.
