Default leveling treestand, which is best

So I'm in the market for a new tree stand, and I need one that can be leveled, since I don't have too many trees that grow straight up and down in my hunting area.
Looks like there areseveral to choose from. One from Loggy Bayou the Predator,two from Lone Wolf being the Elite and Assault and two from Gorilla being the King Kong XLS and the Silver back XLS.
Which have you guys used and which do you like best?

I'd pick the Gorilla, just based on the comfortable seat. I own an older one, non-leveling, and I can sit on it all day. I didn't know they made a leveling stand, I'm gonna go buy one soon...

The King Kong's rock. We bought two of them and just put them out last Monday. They have an adjustment lever on the top..where you ratchet it to the tree.

Take a look at the Equalizer.
I bought one 2yrs ago, sold my Summit because I like it so much.

I just got my assault today. The seat and the platform adjust to level. Very easy to adjustand at 8.5 lbs for the assault it can't be beat. Extremely sturdy and easy as heck to put up. Expensive as heck, but very worth it. I got my assault for $139 from redmondoutdoors.com
