I have Two of them and love them. My first is called the big starr I am 6'6" and 300lbs and like this roomy rock solid stand! My only beef is the flexcable they use It is noisy and has been known to pop around the tree and hit me in the head as I mount it to the tree. I just bought my other one this year and it uses a belt with locking cams,instead of the springcable. This stand is a huge improvment is super quiet and is rock solid. TJW
