Yes I have been using one for 2 seasons now with no problems.I dont think I would ever buy a different stand.The welding on it is beautiful.You will love the leveling feature it will let you climb trees you never could before and go alot higher.You will also like being able to move seat the only problem it is kind of noisey.Never stand on platform while adjusting you will strip out gears.At 20lbs it weighs as much as Lone Wolfs sit n climb.
