Very disappointed after reading rave reviews about summit trees stands. Sold stand after just one week as it has no place in my gear for archery deer hunting. This stand is noisy, cumber to and difficult to use, and poorly thought out design. It gets one star only due to it's sturdy welded design and sturdy cable system. Drawbacks- 1) Noisy; 2) teeth bind into bark on each step ascending or descending from the tree; 3) stirrups are not sturdy enough to jerk stand from tree bark and feet must be placed under metal bars to yank teeth from bark; 4) bar is too far back for short-legged people (30 inches or less) to climb safely and comfortably; 5) oh yeah, did I mention...IT"S NOISY!!! Having used this stand makes me really appreciate my 12-year-old lone wolf hand climber, hands down ahead of summit.

Rated 2 out of 5Â by skipworkforhunting most uncomfortable ever
I like how lite the stand is, it is very easy to transport and easy to climb because the seat easily slides out of the way of climbing. Now for the bad....it feels like i sat on a piece of two inch webbing the entire time in the tree. The piece of metal in the back hits in the lower back and the seat is NON adjustable. I contacted Summit and they said it was not designed for comfort. I told them I spend more time sitting in the stand than I do carrying or climbing and comfort is paramount. He did say others had called and had the same complaint.
