I currently have 2 dozen widgeon, 2 dozen teal, and 1 dozen Woodies. These decoys are amazing, but each decoy needs its individual slot in a bag. If you don't, the paint will chip off only after a few uses. You also have to make sure that the weights do not rub the decoys. On the positive side, they are hands down the most realistic decoys on the market which should have made it a 5, but the care needed to preserve the paint nock it down. I will always use these decoys for Widgeon, Teal, and Wood Ducks, but not mallards. Where I hunt you need dozens of mallard decoys and the care needed to maintain them would be too much.
These things are awesome. I hunt rivers, ponds, and lakes with these things. In the river the 40/60 keel give these a very realistic swimming action. I use them just to give the mallards confidence, and more often than not the mallards land into these and not the mallard decoys. The pond I hunt is full of teal and they always fall for these decoys. The paint is also very good on these. Packing into the pond is kind of a long way. About a mile, so the smaller size is great. I can put 40 or so into a standard decoy backpack.
They are a little pricey but these dekes are my new favorites. The plastic is nice and thick and tough. The paint on mine is staying on and I beat the heck out of my dekes throughout the season. I really like the detail on the bodies too. Overall, I think these dekes are amazingly realisitc and well painted. Their only negative is that they're expensive.
