I like it I used it last year with a bunch of finishers. We had a guy with us who was about 375 and he just couldn't fit in the finishers too well. However he fit in my Cabela's blind and was fairly comfortable. I would buy it again.

I love mine. Sets up easy if you do not break down all the way. If you have to pack it in, it takes a little longer to set up but still not bad. Does not fold up as small as my ground force, but is actually lighter if I have to use the neo tub with ground force. The biggest benefit that the Cabelas has is the built in waterproof. With the others you will need a neo tub to hunt in water over an inch or two. I like both of mine. Last year I hunted out of the cabelas more because of room. Dog can fit in at feet with cabellas or beside you. Ground force I have to put dog outside of blind due to room. You will be happy with the Ultimate. Whatever you buy MUD THE CRAP OUT OF IT. I mean coat it entirely with mud, let it dry, and do it again. If this is done, then you can gather whatever is in field you are hunting and add for camo. Will vanish. The Cabelas seemed a little more shiny out of the box vs the ground force but both look good after mudding.

I really like mine, real comfortable, easy to put up and take down. I will be buying another one, just for a extra.

I have one and really pleased with it. I just fold up the end of it put it on my four wheeler and off I go or can put it on your back and carry it. It is definately light enough and roomy enough.
