Needed to add another stand to the farm and just simply did not have time to build one this year. I went ahead and purchased the GW 10' Tripod and the accessory wrap that goes with it. Will be putting it up this weekend and was just curious if anyone else is using this stand and anything I should be aware of before assembling it at the farm.

Best stand out there for the money, plus a comfy seat. They take awhile to put together as stated above. I used flex seal spray on the seat because they get crushed by the sun and can tear, that has resolved that issue, but then the seat becomes a bit sticky. Use a brown towel or rub dirt in into the flex seal when dry and the stickiness goes away.

I have 3 of them that have been in the field for >4years. No issues, I like the mesh seat(no sweat when bow hunting), and they have held up all this time. Assembly required some bending and force to get everything to line up initially- have wrench set and sockets available to speed it up. I don’t install the rails because used exclusively used for bow hunting. I greased the seat in summer of year 2 to prevent squeaking....

Impact definitely helps a ton. Put one together at my father in laws without one and it took 1 1/2 Hrs, did one last week at my place with an impact and it took roughly 30 to 45 minutes. I don't have the accessory wrap, I read online it was a tight fit. I did put a camo net around mine and my knees do touch it so it is a tight area.

Don't tighten the screws until you have it mostly together
Take a 10mm and 13mm with you...one wrench the other impact/screw gun
Very easy to follow instructions and hardware is all nicely individually labeled for the step you are on.
It will take a little bit of time so don't think you are going to slap it together in 15 minutes.
