I looked at them online yesterday and they seem a little pricey for what you get. Also like Dalton pointed out, the spikes on them dig into the trees which basically eliminates being able to use them on most if not all WMA's and corp land.

Big guy here. Last year I was about 315lbs, Today Im about 275.
Best most comfortable, safest treestand Ive ever used. Liked it so much i bought a second one.
Ive used Tree Lounge, Summit, and others. This thing does bite the tree like a pit bull on a steak bone but to say it kills the tree is to me an overstatement. I hunted in some mature pines last year and left the stand at the base of the tree many nights to reclimb the next day. Tree looks fine this year.
Ive never felt safer in a climber and I aint crazy about heights. As for comfort it is plenty wide and the web seating gives good support. I had the factory add a half of a web seat to the front so I can hunt facing the tree or away from the tree and I dont have to balance my big arse 20 foot up in a tree to step over the webbing.
Highly reccomend these stands.

I personally know the owner and maker of Treewalker treestands. I went to school with two of their sons and have seen their shop several times before. They are very safe treestands and are very comfortable.

If your hunting a property you have permission on and the landowner sees the damage your doing to the tree your hunting from it will leave a bad taste in his mouth and you could possibly lose the spot.
