We owned a couple of them and my husband loved his. Our problem with them in "the old days" is that they only had one tree size and it was pretty narrow and one seat size and it was small. I understand that they now have various tree and seat sizes, so that would be great. My other issue with them is the nylon rigging. I would MUCH prefer it be biothane. Less issues with allergies, rubbing and fraying. That said, they are very comfortable and secure and inexpensive. I would certainly consider one. Good luck! Cindy
