For me you can't beat a summit. I have the razor. For climbing and comfort you can't beat them. Take your time packing and unpacking just as quite as any other stand. I'm 53 have no problem packing it through the woods.

This is my first year using a climber and I bought a Summit Goliath. So far I love it. Its easy to use and comfortable to sit in. No doubt you can do an all day sit in this one. I chose the Goliath because it's made for bigger people (it's rated up to 350lbs and has a wider seat). I'm 6'1" 225 lbs. and the added room is great. It will allow me to sit comfortably even when I've got on my heavy clothes late in the season. From my research the Summits are a little heavier than some of the other brands but you're only talking about 2-3 lbs so I don't think that's a big deal. Plus Summit's new dead metal technology greatly deadens any noise you make from banging the two pieces together or dropping something on to the platform while on stand.
I also got a summit goliath. Super comfortable and light weight. I bought it exactly a year ago and hunted out it quite a bit last year. Only complaints would be it rattles around a little bit when walking with it and the coating on the adjustable strap has not held up very well.
