I'd go with the Gorilla. It's made VERY similar to what I use now,
an Ol' Man Vision. It's very easy to setup and take down, and the mesh seat is comfortable. I always use it in the "footrest" setup, even when I'm hunting with a rifle. It's light-weight, and easy to get around with.

Go with the Gorilla. I got the same one off of sportsmans guide and I love it. I was told they make noise but mine is extremely quiet. Cant go wrong at that price either.

I like the style of the Guide Gear climber the best. It'll be the most comfortable for longer sits where you can kindof "recline". It's also open up front for close in shots.

But the gorilla is lighter and the sling seat is pretty comfy. You just won't have the "recliner" feel that the guide gear would.

The loggy seat will pinch your but and back after not too long.

Can you tell I'm all about being comfortable on stand?

Hope you're feeling well!!!

WEAR A HARNESS!!!!!!!!

I have a Gorilla treestand, not a climber but a hang-on. It is quiet and tough as nails. I even ran it over one time with a four wheeler, not a scratch on it.

Go with the loggy ledgend w/o the cuishion seat. Just get the mess seat. Also just get the single stand. Don't wast your money on the climbing aid.
