The price of this climber is great for the value of the product. Summit makes the best quality climber in my opinion. They are light weight, easy to use, comfortable, mobile, quite, feel secure when you set the teeth into the tree, and great for archery hunters. I’ve heard people say it is Josie to setup, but I have no issues setting up this bad boy. My recommendation for this people is take your time, plan our tour route, your assembly in the field, and practice your climbing. Generally it’s the operator making the noise not the equipment. The only thing that would warrant some more attention is that the paint on the teeth has already come off, but I expected that to happen. Special note for those looking to buy this bad boy. I’m 5”11, 205 with a waist of 34 add all those layers on here and the width of the seat is just enough to be comfortable. I’m going to buy the Goliath and give this viper to my girlfriend. If you have long legs like me Best Buy that foot rest extension. 5 out 5 stars summit I’ll be buying the Goliath next

Bought to use for public land hunts, it's a nice stand. I was hoping it would be easier to pack than my heavy Ol'Man Vision, but not sure about that, the Viper is a little awkward. The pros are the climbing ability and comfort. I also purchased the footrest and am looking forward to long sits. The stand arrived w/some minor damage but nothing that couldn't be pried back into place. I'd recommend checking the cable track/stop/lock for uncorrectable damage before unpackaging everything but otherwise assembly is easy. Hope this helps! Update: After using it, it's much easier to pack than my Vision. Some upgrades I made were to replace the pack strap w/the XOP TTS, applied 3M grip tape to the platform and installed a universal bow holder. Now it's great and just in time for gun season.

Seller is rad. Great to work with and best customer service I have had. About the stand. Ive owned the older vipers without the SD. Had it for 10+ years and loved it. Recently I tried to foam it myself and it worked great except for on the foot base where it connects to the bracket - I foamed it and the foam leaked into where the cables go in. Long story short... I needed to buy this one to quickly replace my old one until I could properly fix it. This SD Viper stand. I like most everything about it. My old viper had cable tie on arm rests and that totally beats the new zipper ones. The new zipper pads cover less area and the zippers make noise when walking in. The zippers dont hold the pad on as well as the old cable tie system. Thats my biggest complaint and its small. Another thing I havent checked fully but the bungee strap that wraps the chair to the tree seems shorter. I may have been in too big of a tree but for sure test it out before going out. I used heat shrink tubing that had adhesive in it to cover the little metal s-hooks so they dont make noise. I would suggest mounting the shoulder straps a rung lower than they suggest. The straps stretch for comfort but if you are like me and load a bag on the climber - it will pull down the climber and the bottom can hit your legs when walking. Thats level 10 annoying. These sound bad but honestly this is the most comfortable chair I have sat in. In general. There are no pressure points like a ground chair has. The best hunt ever. I did buy some side bags and mounted them to the size for holding things. Its wonderful because you dont need to climb with a backpack or haul it up with string. My old stand I painted spots with brown and it looks darker which is nice. I hunter for years without painting it and never was spotted. I also used camo tape people use on bows to make it blend and quieter when bumped. I would suggest clearing trails way ahead because branches make tingy noises walking in. If you cant just get out way early. Climber is easy to assemble. Doesn't take more than an hour... I was just picky. The shoulder strap took a bit to figure out because the instructions dont really cover it. Look at pics and play around with it. The old stands had a foot rest on them which I liked but did squeak when opening and sometimes got in the way when getting in and out of the stand. Buy it. Its worth it. Seems better than most in my opinion. Summit makes quality stands.

Great product for the money. Made in America. Lightweight aluminum. What more could one ask for? Summit Viper has the best reviews and after exhaustive research I believe it's the best for the money. Putting it together was pretty simple - the back straps setup was not intuitive, but everything else was easy to figure out. Unfortunately I didn't get to use it - purchased it via Amazon Warehouse items - new in box - they had a great deal on them back on prime day in June. It sat boxed in my garage until archery deer season started for me last weekend - and when I pulled it out, noticed it was severely bent on the upper (seat) portion of the stand. It's not usable in this manner, and while I did mostly get a refund from AMZN, I would have much preferred to receive a good stand as now I can't get one in time for this years' hunting season. Final thought on climbing stands - always use the tether that keeps the foot rest from falling out separately from the upper seat portion - this stand comes with a good one inside the box. My previous stand did not, and I lost the foot portion while descending a tree in the dark my first year using it. I had to hang from the harness in the tree to retrieve it and thankfully was able to do so.

To think I almost cheaped out and bought the steel one :0 Don't do that unless you can't afford it or have a 4 wheeler or vehicle to drop it off. Twenty pounds might not seem like a lot, but it is when you have a long hike on foot to the site. Add a gun and a pack and you're working overtime. The assembly isn't hard. It's figuring out all the dang safety features. I ignored the backpack straps and decided I'll just carry one frame in each hand to the site the day before. I was tired by the time I got there :( One mistake I made was not adjusting the seat cushion height before climbing. I knew it was tilted but decided I would power thru. I stayed in the tree from 615am until 415pm. Definitely should have adjusted the seat cushion.

I own all types of ladder stands and strap or chain on seats but this is my first climber. I can not say enough good things about this product. I watched a few videos on how to use this product and general climbing seat safety and was then off to hunt with it. Seat is more or less assembled on delivery, just had to fit the padded seat (2 mins) and then the round the tree wire straps (2 mins). Once I found a tree to climb, got myself set up and away I went, super easy to use and I felt very safe and in control. This unit is light to carry at around 20lbs, has backpack type straps and is super comfortable when in use sitting in the tree. I recommend this climbing stand to all. Unit comes with safety harness and tie off strap to tree. I left my gear on the ground and used a couple of light cammo ropes to lift my backpack / bow / gun to my stand when I was in place in the tree. I found removing the padded seat to climb and descend made things easier, this is very fast to do and convenient also when things get wet from the rain and need to be dried. A well thought out and made product, hope to have many years of use.

I wasn’t exactly sure what I ordered when ordered this stand. All I really knew was it had a stand, harness and climbing gear. This is a CLIMBING TREE STAND. You literally climb the the tree from inside the stand. It walks up and down the tree by lifting and lowering the upper deck with your arms and the lower deck with your feet strapped in. An online video will explain everything. It’s very stable. No movement of any kind once you are in place. Comfortable enough for all day use. The safety harness is pretty decent for being part of a kit. Get a bow holder and the extended foot bar for sure! I will also be seeking out a bag to hang from the upper deck platform to store snacks and or gloves plus a cup holder for some coffee. I love the way I can carry it like a backpack. I even strapped my supply backpack to the outside of this so I didn’t have to make more than one trip in. The best part is that I can change locations without having any trouble. No adding steps or a ladder. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
