Low Rider™ 3.0 Layout Blind GORE® OPTIFADE® Marsh

I have several products from rigem right that I love. When I received the low rider 3.0 layout blind it had been damaged in shipping. The great customer service team at rigem right took care of the problem immediately and sent me a replacement part. I received the part quickly and with no hassle. The only reason I didn't give the blind 5 stars is I wish it folded up smaller. Even if it took a little time to fold up smaller it would be nice if nothing but for storage in the off season. Rigem right as a company deserves 5 stars because they listen to their customers feedback and stand behind their products. I highly suggest trying their products.

The back rest bent and talking to customer service they got me the new part fast so I could keep hunting, still using the blind its the most comfortable blind I have used.

Giving this blind 3 stars because I like how spacious this blind is, as well as the layout of the storage. It folds up nicely and is fairly easy to haul with the shoulder strap. And I like the Optifade camo.

However, after just two days in the field, the copper wire for the face mesh is poking through and I ripped a hole in my $550 Sitka jacket.

Additionally, the back brace behind the top of the cushion (where you rest your head) completely bent downward on only the second hunt. I’m going to try and fix it myself due to no time to order a replacement part for this weekend’s hunt, but unfortunately that has bent so easily. I do not recall the exact moment that it bent, but I definitely don’t recall ever slamming down onto the cushion.

Regardless of what happened, two major failures on the second hunt is disappointing for sure.

The cammo is good and I like the pockets they are in good usable spot. That is where it ends the doors do not stay connected, it’s hard to clean, you need to unbrush your doors every time you take it down or the blind gets filled with vegetation from storing the doors in the blind. Then there is a lip inside the blind where vegetation from the doors get stuck under making it hard to come out the bottom and clean. No shoulder straps to Cary this big thing and the buckles are junk fir such an expensive blind. I am using pull straps to hold it together when carry it to the spot. The copper wire that holds the shape for the screen on the door is poking through so I catch it on my Sitka duck oven and layout pants. I have resorted to keeping it together when in transport but the design of the doors makes it not work well because the come off. I hunt waterfowl 2- 3 times a week during the season and need a better product than this.

I beat it up, and the camo still looks great. I power wash it, it doesn’t rip. I jam corn into it, and it hasn’t broken. Took a dive off my truck at 70mph and didn’t break. Love it. Needs backpack straps - not a single strap though.
