After looking at a bunch of 2 person ladder stands I picked the Big Game Treestands Big Buddy model CR4800. There were cheaper and more expensive ones out there but this one had everything I was looking for. I put it together and put it up today. It's very well made, everything fit perfectly and once it's up it's rock solid. It's almost 14' to the seat platform and very comfortable. It has two seperate padded seats with padded backrests and a padded shooting rail. It also came with two full body harnesses.Bass Pro Shops sells them for $179.00 plus tax. I bought mine on eBay for $149.00 shipped, pretty good deal I think. They also make a blind for that stand. I'll buy that when I get it moved to the lease. I set it up in the yard so my daughter can get used to climbing in and out of it in the dark. Although this is not a field assessment I have to say it's a great stand thus far.
