A pain in the a$$ , just sit infront of a tree or tucked back in the bushes

Agree with knightrider. They're terrible. You can't see anything behind you. You can barely see to the sides. You definitely can't shoot to the sides. Then when you try to fold it up when you get ready to leave it's like being in a WWE match with that thing.
Never used one but what's stated above is what I'd assume. Seems like they'd be a pain to deal with.

Chair blind sales seems like pure marketing genius to me...just like HS Acorn Cruncher, Drury Dead Silence, Squealing Hen, or HECS clothing.
Your back to a tree is all you need (and maybe not even that).

Years ago my dad shot one from a single chair blind. He shot a little further than he thought using lead. He knocked the bird down and it got up and ran. From the story he told I wish I could have seen him. Running around the field with the chair blind being drug from his waist.
I guess I will go against the grain. I sort of like them. For deer hunting on wet or cold and windy days they work pretty good. I haven't used one turkey hunting, but I see little reason they wouldn't work almost as well as a blind stuck on the edge of a field. They are definitely lighter than carrying in a "real" blind and chair.
To each his own.
