lone wolf climber for me. a solid portable stand.

I have an older summit viper, and its comphy but I dont like having to fool with the strap that goes around the tree to secure the top part of the stand so it doesnt fall, its a noisey strap. Then I dont like the foot sturrup bungee straps ( I think they fixed that allready) .

I have an Ole Man Grand Vision. I love it. Its comfortable and the platform is big enough that I have some wiggle room. I just wouldnt have any other stand. Ive owned 2 of them (1st one got stolen).

I have a Summit and like it. Lone Wolf is probably a better quality stand, but you get what you pay for. Do you want to spend $250 on an awesome stand (Summit) or do you have $350 for a lighter probably even better made stand that probably isn't quite as comfortable?

Lone Wolf - I'm totally loyal to that company. Their suff packs in easily - doesn't gut hung up in brush and green briar, etc. I have the sit and climb and the hang on. The hang on/climbing sticks get you up in maples/cherries- anything you can imagine.-A little more work, butmorethan rewards with a lot more options for getting your setup just right. Only drawback of hunting out of the sit and climb is that the armrestmay obstruct you in certain situations.

Check out the LONE WOLF! Its an excellant stand.

Summit.

Summit Viper SS. It's the most comfortable stand I've ever used. To me, aside from being sturdy, comfort is as important as anything.
