We have this one and I am amazed how nice it is for the price. My 12 year old and I fit inside with plenty of room and both of us are pretty big for our age.

Ameristep Dog House Hunting Blind. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078H74Q2C And, we've found a couple of spots with denser brush where we can set it near a trail and it blends in very well.

The only complaint is that the little windows are too low to use them - they should just be removed from the product. But, you can unzip the big windows to open just a 2 or 3 inch slot on 3 sides. This was the perfect height for us sitting in a couple of the plastic, church-pot-luck-dinner folding chairs. We carried in a roll of carpet remnant to make a floor to keep the noise down and keep our chairs from sinking in the leaves. That worked well.

Me and both my boys hunt from this one. I bought it because of the window setup, it really works well for kids. But theres nothing I don’t like about it. I took a chance because I had never heard of them, but its been fantastic.

blind

I used a couple Doghouse blinds for a while, and they were great for the price. But the material and zippers always failed in less than a year. They also weren’t water proof. But for the price they’re a nice portable option. They weight next to nothing.

I have hunted out of a number of different fabric ground blinds and found that if I don't brush them up significantly, the deer will bust me, especially old does. Another tip I can offer is to buy one which is waterproof. Not all of them are. Sure is nice to be able to be in the field even when it is pouring down rain.

I hunt out of Double Bull blinds and last. I have 2. They have plenty of room, are blacked out inside, lots of windows and easy to set up and take down. It is a little pricey but I use a Millenium swivel seat. It adjust to the ground, is quiet and so comfortable I can sit it all day.

I have 2 older Double Bull blinds and they have been great. Not sure about the new Primos Double Bull's tho. I have the Matrix 360 and T2

I use a rhino 200. It says it is for three hunters, but it would be pretty crowded with three adults in it.

For just me it has plenty of room even with some extra gear. I use HF moving blankets on the ground. Actually helps warm it a tad and quiets it down alot. The windows are the no-see-um type with covers. I can set it up in minutes if not brushing it in. If I am leaving it set up for more than a day I do brush it to break up the boxy outline. The real tree camo on it does a pretty good job of blending in here in my neck of the woods.

I have had it awhile and really like it so far. Can't think of anything I don't like about it really. Cost was 100.00 bucks tx included.

Best I have ever seen was two years ago. Guy had it set up and I walked right up to it before I realized it was a blind. Looked like a big rock. Oddly shaped and the color matched the real rocks we have here perfectly. I have looked for another since and have found nothing. It may have been a custom built blind for all I know.
