How bout the hard numbers? What do they weight (old ones and new ones)? What do they cost or what did you pay? (someone might have bought one used). Maybe this could be for me.......THIS SEASON!

The old ones weigh about 22 pounds, without the bow platform. Speaking of the bow platform, you are actually about 3 feet from the tree, and it is a little un-nerving at first. With a proper safety harness (which should be used with ANY climber,) it is very safe.
Being that people either love or hate the TreeLounge, you can probably pick up a good used one for less than half the price of the new ones!
I paid 100.00 gor a used one, with a gun holder already on it, at the time new ones were going for about 250.00
As I've said before, I've never been in a safer, more comfortable stand than the TL!
