Barronett Blinds RA200BW Radar Pop Up Portable Blind, Bloodtrail Backwoods Camo

OK Folks - There is no perfect piece of hunting equipment, so you have to weigh the pros and cons and be practical about it. This blind is one of the lightest for the amount of room you have. It sets up easy, stands up to the rain well, has a great cammo pattern, and has plenty of shooting windows.The two negatives people keep mentioning is getting in and out (?). Hopefully you only do this at the beginning and end of hunt, so what's the big deal? It's a pop-up blind not a two-car garage.Yes, the window loops are skimpy, but most woodsman should be able to figure out a solution. I simply made up a bunch of 2" loops using nylon cord (or paracord) and attached them to the existing loops.WoW - Problem solved. Easy to get on and off with cold hands or in the dark.Am I willing to send it back because of this? (Really?).Really like this blind and glad I chose it over the other top two I had narrowed it down to.Thumbs-Up.

I am actually writing this review from this blind right now as it pours down rain on a Turkey hunt; this thing is fantastic.I've had it set up on the edge of the woods since the first week of August (so it's been out in the sun, rain, snow now for going on 5 months straight) and it is still in awesome shape, and what's best (particularly today) remains waterproof. The camo pattern is high quality and has not faded, and setting up was very easy. Here are just some of my pros & cons:Pros:-Great camo pattern-Wide enough for bow hunting (original reason I bought it)-Durable-Waterproof-Materials seem to be of good qualityCons:-Has the "tab" connectors for the flaps. These are essential an elastic loop that goes over a plastic bar. They are there because they are silent vs. zippers, but they take a much, much longer to take down and especially to put back up, particularly in the cold. I actually think I hate them more than the dentist. Also the main entry and rear "window" are zippers anyway, but I guess it allows silent adjustments once inside. I wouldn't hesitate to buy again just because of this, but I'm dreading having to head out today because I'm going to spend 10 minutes trying to close these.-You need to be careful with the circle hinges as they can pinch the flaps if you need to move them when the flaps are open. I got a very small tear doing so.- It has a weird blood drop pattern in the camo. I guess this is just to customize/differentiate it but I don't get it. I mean, its subtle and I don't care, but it's just kinda odd.Time will tell how many seasons this will go, but given I've left this thing up for 5 months and it still looks pretty new I feel good about the outlook. I definitely would recommend and appreciate Barronett making such a good product.

Outstanding blind. Easy setup, (1 minute). Once opened up it is very rigid. Lots of windows. With the primary curtains down, you cannot see through the shoot-through mesh windows from the outside. There are no seams on the roof, so consequently, no leaks. The roof is steep and taught enough, snow should slide right off. Half the price and 4 times the quality of my other blind. Cons; The door has a noisy zipper and is a tight squeeze, even though I'm a little man. No outside brush holders.

I’ve hunted in a Double Bull Blind for many years and spent almost as much time repairing it as I did hunting in it! This blind cost less than a quarter and went up much easier. I don’t leave my stands in the woods for extended periods and believe it will hold up very well under those conditions. I plan to use with my grandson in a couple weeks and will come back and post pics if successful. For this price, if it wears out in a year or two, I’ll just buy another!About the only real complaint I’ve seen for this blind is that it leaks. The instructions clearly recommend water proofing the seams. Set it up in my back yard and put Coleman water proofing on all the seams. Took lest than 1/2 hour and about $7. Should be ready to take my grandson on Monday for some youth season turkey hunting. Will post pics if successful!

We just ordered this blind last week and set it up last weekend on a field to get ready for bow-hunting season. We needed something that we could leave out for the season and something that could get us closer to the action for bow season (we have a tree stand set up but it is too far back off the field.)So far this thing seems awesome. It felt sturdy and durable. I was impressed with the pattern and it didn't seem shiny. It popped up in about 5 seconds and set up was super easy. We have it all brushed in nicely, which should help. I am looking forward to taking my 3 year old son out there for the first time in it.I mainly ordered it because we needed something affordable that was durable, waterproof (ish), and had silent windows. Our old blind had velcro and it killed me every morning to be making so much noise. These windws close with the little elastic loops and plastic rods. They are nice but are honestly a bit tedious. Much better than velcro though.Time will tell on longevity and durability. Will probably take it down at the end of the season and then use it again during turkey season. Will update after the season if I remember.

Seems to be of good quality. I would recommend taking the extra waterproofing steps if you plan to hunt in rain. I stayed dry in very light rain, but did have a few leaks around stitching and pinholes in the blind materials.I was able to set up in under a minute. Longest part of the process is opening the windows. The zipperless windows are nice, but do take a little more dexterity to open/close quickly.First trip out with the blind and Tom never knew I was there.The door is kind of a pain, it likes to try and close on you when you enter. But it's not that big a deal to me. I throw my stuff in then enter.Recommended!

Durable and keeps the wind off. Works as it should. The only thing I wish was better was the way to get in an out of the blind. Other than that I really like it!

Very nice, easy to set up, lots of room for two and seems well built. Will be nice to have some shelter when hunting in the Fall, just getting out of the wind will be great.

Awesome pop up blind. Have used it for a week has withstood a snowstorm with two feet of snow dumped upon us also survived a high wind storm 90 km an hour plus. Was surprised to come out and find it still standing and absolutely no damage. Would definitely buy again.

Plenty of room, excellent price. Waterproof, windproof. Easy to set up and use. I highly reccomend.

Seems to be well built, Its 100% waterproof and lots of room. The only thing I dont like is the door its tight to get in, they should of made it all one piece and have a half moon all zipper door. Would make it alot easier getting In and out. Otherwise great blind

Great product easy set up and take down
