Tried one once.....all the plastic cracked and broke because of the cold. Also, the chair was pretty cheaply made. Personally, I wouldn't waste the
money !!!

I have had the one and 2 man of these I found them perfect for what they are you do sacrifice durability for weight I do not reccomend them in windy
conditions and they do lack alot of room I bought the 3 man to fish 2 people with 5 holes (drilled one for the camera) it is very tight. The one man
has the same space issues but it is very portable and easy to set up. I recommend very short rods if you are fishing in one to save a ton of room. I
sold both of mine last season I fished them for 2 seasons with no breakage. I upgraded to a 1 man clam PRO because of a more comfortable chair and a
ton more room. But lets face it my pro cost me like $250 and the 1 man HT can be bought at lebaron for $70 and the 2 man is only $100. I don't kow
if Dennis has them. I think they are great as long as you are not expecting to get more than what you are paying for, most 1 man shanty's cost way
over $150
