I tried one years ago, cheap, flimsy & with a tiny platform. I didn't like it after only one morning hunt and traded it off. There's more manufacturers now and I know they've improved them. What are your recommendations?

I bought a single man from sportsmans guide that's 18' tall and comfortable. Instructions sucked but I sort of expected it. My buddy has a double man stand that he got from dicks sporting goods. It has a full enclosure and is 20' I think. They were on sale the other day for $200.

In my opinion for the money and comfort that Rivers Edge is the best. I love mine

I have a Big Game also. It is comfortable but not as comfortable as my Rivers Edge. Just my opinion.

I was at Dick's the other day to purchase a couple on clearance. I got the basic stand with the bigger foot platform and shooting rail for $69 (and then $10 off with a coupon). They are no frills but comfortable to hunt out of.
But, they had a couple of Field and Stream models for $149 that really looked nice. The ladders were bigger and the seat/platform area looked huge.
I'll keep my eye on them to see if they come down a little more. They were the best looking ladders for under $200 that I have seen.
