If you look closely it is absolute junk. Compare that to a safe climber and you wouldnt use that thing if you were sitting 4 feet off theground.
I would not buy any climbing tree stand for $172, let alone $72.

For what it's worth…..in the off-season/prep stage I spray-paint my deer stands (both climbers and ladder) with the spray in truck bed stuff. It provides a matt finish, makes them more water resistant, muffles some of the noise and provides additional traction/grip.
^Great set up! I've been thinking about doing something along those lines. I took care of the noisy spots of the stand with a little Ballistol and believe it or not, moleskin adhesive pieces that are normally used for blister prevention on feet. I used moleskin on my bow as well for places where an arrow tends to bump and make noise. I had six deer under my tree stand yesterday evening. Only five are around today
