I have one, it goes right up no problem, unlike their video using 3 people. I put it up by myself and back pack It for very long hikes. It is only 38lbs, telescopic, and extremely safe and stable. I wouldn't trade it for no other stand, and for the price it should be at least 200.00 dollars more for its unique capability. Very comfortable and armrest are available as well as a footrest. Best of all, you get to go public or private hunts and take it home at the end of the day.Needless to say I am very satisfied.
