$13 is darn cheap. If they don't work out, you're not out alot of money.

It sucks carrying a climber in and out along with a crossbow/gun/gearbag.
I only leave it on private land, but anything can be taken/stolen from anywhere.
I have a Treewalker climber and love it, but these $13.00 stands with some steps, I'll hang them and leave them in for years.
Won't carry them in and out at all, plus I never set more then 3 hours so comfort isn't a major concern for me with this cheap stand. Use my climber for longer sitting and moving to different spots.

thats a great deal, but personally after using my 2 gorrilla stands and seeing how comfortable they are, I dont think I could use one of those even if it is 13 bucks

Ya that's nice and light. Even if you are only a little bit up, your off the ground. I had a climber stole once. I was even able to track'em in a light snow. But O'well I got another one. The one thing I can't stand is leaving a stand in the woods during off season. People got treehouses, permanent stands, that just become unsafe and delapidated if not maintained. I always take my stands down after the season and store too.

That reminds me, I need to get new cables for my climber. They are about five or six years old. My stolen climber had chains, a little heavier, but longer lasting, I think.

Last year I got two Gorilla Greyback climbers @ the same Walmart for $45.00 each.
They are nice, but they don't compare to my Treewalker..
I still use them.
