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.

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

I have a couple Gorillas andI like them. They are comfy and the seat folds flat. I am a bigger guy at 6' 280lbs and I feel just fine in them.

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.

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.
