Does anyone use these blinds? How long have they lasted? Are they maintenance free? I am considering buying one but wish they made a 4x6. I want to buy something that is zero maintenance that will last. Any input would be appreciated.

i had one way back when, they are easy to set up but not really heavy duty.
imo one can be made for as much as they charge.
the good ones are atascosa and ranch king.
I personally use lester hardin's blinds in batesville and have had ZERO issues with them in the past 7 years

For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Texas Hunter blinds are small and poorly made. Ranch King or BOSS Game systems are the best IMO.

Checked out the T Box and the Boss today. 1700 for the Boss and 950 for the T Box. Boss was a nice unit. I thought the T Box for the price looked like a quality unit. Does fiberglass require maintenance?

A little different opinion on Texas Hunter blinds. I have 8 of them that are all 4x8 and range from ground to 15'. They have been up for about 8-9 years and have required no maintinance. They are all still in great shape. The door is a bit of a pain but really not bad once you figure out how to get in and out with your rifle.
Not the most heavy duty blind you can find but for the price and ease of assembly I believe they offer a good value. They will not keep the insects out but do keep the wind off you and you don't have to paint them.
