RE: Gorilla Hang On's
I have 2 Gorilla hang on stands both are the Alumn models (lighter to pack in)
The platforms have more than enough room for me to move around on but then again I am not a big guy either
You can also get a foot rest for them and that makes a real comfy hunt.

RE: Gorilla Hang On's
it is ok, i have used one the past couple of years. there not the stand to take down and put up 20 times in a season. but overall, for price, they are pretty comfortable, kinda roomy but kind of a pain to hang. their is no adjustments on it for tree size or angle. if you are going to leave it up all season then its a good stand

We had a local sporting goods store go out of business and we were able to buy "Baby Gorillas" for $32.00 each. Couldn't beat the price and we love them. They have nylon straps with a cambucklethat locks them to the tree. To me the are super easy to hang and adjust to trees.
I would recommend tieing the bottom of the stand in once you get it set, then they are super solid.

i have 2 silverback mags with the footrest ass. i love them. i just got 2 of the new, i forget the name, but they are the camo with the coating, built in footrest and arm rest with the sling seat. i haven't set them up yet, but i bet i like them just the same. the 24x30 platforms are awesome. i also have the king kong ladder, very nice.

Just like pretty much everyone else has stated, they are great stands. I have several King Kong loungers and a Kong hang on, all are very comfy and roomy platforms. For them money they are deffinetly hard to beat.
