DEGOINS let's hear it. What stands do you prefer and why?

I have 2 summit vipers and a grizzle climber. One double wide latter stand. Had a Hunters View climber but someone stole it last year. Stands will be locked to trees from now on. Thinking about selling the grizzly because it`s steal and heavy, only used it one year.

I've owned a Galiath (sp) for about 5 years now. I've been bowhunting for 25 years and
this is by far the best and safest stand I've ever owned. I'm 6'-2" and 240 pounds, I never hesitate to climb 25 feet and take a nap before good hunting time comes around. I will be buying one for my son next fall, knowing that it is the safest stand I could put him into.

I just purchased my first tree stand I got the Summit Viper Classic.  The steel frame makes it a bit heavy (makes for a good workout in New Hampshires White Mountains) but it very sturdy.  The only thing I really don't like about it is that at 5' 6" my legs feel a little cramped up.  I'll be looking to see if Summit offers an extender of some type to put on the lower platform.  Other then that acending and desending are snap.

I have a Summit Goliath. I only weigh 220lb but I bought the Goliath because it offers me so much room especially when it gets cold and you have on heavy bulky clothing. I love it. It works so well and is easy to set up and climb. I can stay in it all day. I would not buy any other brand.
