I've hunted in several different production models, and some homemade stands.
Of the production models, these are my observations.

Atascosa, with stairs.  The stairs are nice, and they are tight and rodent proof. Problems for me have to do with the windows freezing shut, so that they won't slide and half of the floors were very noisy. These were all purchased new and less than one year old.


The Blynd - Just a cheap economy model that can be made into a 4x8. The access door is a PITA when setup as a ground blind.


BOSS Game Systems - Probably my favorite overall. Tight windows and doors, the windows flip up, and have felt to keep from being noisy, and the floor does not creak under a shifting load.

I have been to several places and looked at all the ones you listed Chris and came to the exact same conclusion. Right now I am leaning toward the BOSS also. Seem to be well built for the price. There is a Ranch King Brand also that I am looking at. From what I am told BOSS is the way to go if you go Fiberglass and Ranch King is way to go metal.

The REAL nice ones run $5K+...  Shocked

I have all three styles that Chris posted pics of and we just upgraded on the plastic ones to  4 x 8's and they cost 475.00. 

Depends on personal preference and how much do you want to spend.  We have finally upgraded all our blinds on the ranch to 4 x 8 or bigger for more room and comfort.
