Just bought a summit ss viper this year. Very comfortable, just make sure your lower platform is at the right height, helps take pressure off back of your legs. Adjusted right, could probably sit all day.

I wouldn't mind trying the ol'man grand, as Rob had mentioned though.

Right now I have an API, Buckshot and an Equalizer. I've owned others. Of the ones I now own only the Equalizer gets any tree time. It's not the lightest or the cheapest. It's simply the most rock solid thing going. And the leveling feature when 20 feet up is the absolute nuts. Nothing like it.

Summit Bushmaster
Nice and moderately light
Quiet and hooks up to tree easily
Had it for 4 years with no problems

Equalizer hands down is my favorite climber. Makes no noise when setting up, and you dont have to have it at a steep angle when you start to climb. I also love the straps that hold the platform and seat together, then when ur in position you can tighten it and your seat will be rock solid to the tree. literally.

Summit Razor, I can lower the bar out of the way while on stand and then put it back in place for the decent down the tree.

I have an older model Ol' man, 8 yrs+ old I think. I don't even know the name. Its pretty nice, folds flat and is light. The only thing I don;t like is when in smaller trees the arms are real close together which make it tough to sit there & stand up quietly. I'm a skinny guy too. After all this time and use, still no squeaks. However I might look for a new one next year. I want something with rubber grips that leave NO marks on trees. I don't like people knowing where I hunt, and this thing scuffs the tree enough to easily see that. Especially year after year.

I have the API grand Slam and the Summit Razor, With the Razor I can lower the bar out of the way, the grand slam the bar is solid. But I like theAPI itpacks easier for me. there both great stands.

Just bought a Summit Viper last week, sat in it 15 hours and packed it for 5+ miles, very easy to pack, very comfortable.
