Although I hunt mainly out of "lock-ons" I bought a sit n climb last year. Over all I was pleased with the stand. Quiet, safe, lite, packs in and out of the woods nicely. ( not a bunch of crap hanging everywhere getting caught on everything making a bunch of noise.) The only problem I had was late season when I had alot of clothes on, the top half would actually lift up with you when you stood up. I'm 6 foot 195lbs. (not that big) The top half needs to be a few inches wider. For me anyway.
