I was wondering how they were. Where did you pick it up?

I bought a couple of the Tidewe blinds two years ago when they first came out.  three of the four sides are see-through.  It's pretty neat, although not quite like looking through glass or anything like that.  More like the door of your microwave.  I have one that has been out on the edge of a field since I got it.  Had to prop it back up after snow collapsed it and there have been wasps building a hive or whatever it's called hanging from the peak inside, and some vines started using those tiny holes in the walls to send little branches through for grip, but it's still out there and I'll be using it in Gun season (maybe crossbow).  The colors have all faded to shades of tan and brown, none of the greens and grays lasted a couple years of the sun's UV, but all the elastic parts still work fine.  The other one got taken down when someone put a treestand across the field from it, facing directly at it.  Didn't want to risk getting rounds coming my way in that, so it's in my garage now.  Feels like it may be a bit late to set it up, the deer acclimate to these, but it takes a while, and too close to the season for where I want to put it.

Spent Saturday morning in mine.  Had a small basket 8 and a spike walk past completely at ease.  The spike kept looking at the blind whenever the chair I had it it would make creaking noises, but didn't really seem too bothered.  I had two sides of the horizontal openings at about 10" open too.  Guess that it being dark in there really inhibits their ability to see inside.
I will add that the chair I got, a Blackout, I think, is just too high.  It was on sale for $50 back then, and it is sturdy and comfortable, but just puts my head higher than the slots in the blind want.  I have to lean forward and have my elbows on my knees to see out comfortably.  Can't stay like that for too long.  It sure is a comfortable way to hunt though.
