High-quality welded aluminum construction; adjustable seat; cushioned armrests; padded climbing seat bar and backpack straps; full-body safety harness. Seat: 12'' x 18'' x 2''; backrest: 12'' x 20'' x 2''; platform: 20'' x 28-3/4''; inside climber frame: 22'' x 26-1/2''. Weight: 21 lbs. Treestand is TMA certified. Maximum weight capacity: 350 lbs.

Somewhat pleased,November 17, 2009
By Anonymousfrom Bolivar, Mo
Advantages: Durability, Ease of use, Performs well, Quality Disadvantages: a pain to pack into the woods.
"This treestand is easy to climb, comfortable, and very lightweight. It is worth the money, if you are a larger build person, that needs to climb a tree. I love the arm rests, they provide you with support with the shots that are angling behind you on either side. The first rifle hunt in this stand, I shot an awesome 135" 9 point left handed behind me, I utilized the arm rest for stability.
There is a con. The backpack straps are not secure, and will slide from side to side, this makes it to where the stand is a pain to haul into the woods, but if you are not carrying a pack with it, the problem is not as bad.
Overall great stand!"

Good For Big Guys,November 3, 2009
By Ghost6from Yorktown, VA
Advantages: Durability, Ease of use, Performs well, Quality, Value for money
"The Summit Goliath is by far the best and most comfortable climber I've ever used. This is number 4 and for a big guy it's sturdy, safe and easy to use. Added side pockets top store haul lines, hooks and folding saw. Only recommendation is to change out the back straps with something that doesn't cut into your shoulders. Those "Claw" rifle slings as pack straps would work great. I've used this climber on softwoods and hardwoods from Louisiana to Tennessee to Virginia and it is in fact the top of the line in my book."

great stand,November 1, 2009
By deerstalker09from illinois
Advantages: Durability, Ease of use, Performs well, Value for money Disadvantages: carry straps are too small for 21lb stand
"i borrowed a razor from my brother and had to have one myself but im about 250lbs so i chose the goliath...excellent choice. climbs as easy as the razor and the extra couple inches is very nice. i customized the straps to carry it with cables up. travels much easier than with them down and like most others, i did notice paint flaking off right out of the box but am not concerned with it because i wrapped the whole thing with camo tape anyway. overall i ame extremely pleased"

best stand ever,October 12, 2009
By trystand
Advantages: Durability, Ease of use, Performs well, Quality
"I am a big man and have tried many different tree stands over the years from hang on to ladder stands and by far this is the best most secure stand I have ever used. Climbing up and down was a breeze, and while in the tree the stand never moved."

Very comfortable stand,March 25, 2009
By Jerebearfrom Covington, GA
"Bought this as my very first stand, and I must say, it's more comfortable than I could've ever imagined! Very easy to use, very quiet packing in and out of the woods, and Summit offers lots of accessories to personalize it to suit your style of hunting. I'm 6'0", 275lbs, and I could sit in this stand all day! I even fell asleep once, that's how comfortable this stand is."

Great stand!!,January 17, 2009
By silvergts1998
"I hate heights and hate wobbly platforms. This stand is totally strong and stable. I am really pleased with this stand. Only thing I would find to complain about are the plastic connectors. They are going to eventually break, but no big deal. It's a little hard to shoot a bow sitting down, but I love this stand from a safety view and quality view also. You can't go wrong with this stand."

Comfortable!,July 28, 2008
By buckbaggerfrom Central Pa
"I purchased this stand before the "07" archery season after using about 12 other stands in the 18 years I have hunted. I carried it over 1 1/2 miles easily and sat in it for 8 hours or more on numerous occassions. The most comfortable and quiet stand I have ever used. Definitely worth the money. I am going to buy another one to take to my hunting club in Ohio."

Great for the First Timer,March 30, 2008
By Outdoorsman34from Ontario, Canada.
"This tree stand is one of the easiest and fastest tree stands to set up. Very quiet and straight forward directions. Easy to assemble even for the first time tree stand user. The Cd video that comes with the stand is extremely useful and a added bonus for assembly, use and safety. There is no question what my next Tree Stand will be again when I wear this one out. Hunter 1"

So Easy A Cave Man can do it.,March 5, 2008
By StriperKingfrom Central, NJ
"I was injured in Iraq in 2005. I returned home in 2006 and retired after 21 years of service in the U.S. Army. The only thing I wanted to do was get in a tree stand and get that big Buck. I was given the Summit Golliath SS as a gift. I was unsure if I would be able to climb due to my injuries, but it was so easy to operate. Light weight and rugged. The only problem was it was too comfortable. Be carefull in this stand. If you fall asleep you may miss the big one. Great gift. I highly suggest it to anyone looking for a new stand."

Summit Goliath SS,March 4, 2008
By BassinDeerHunterfrom Alabama
"Without a doubt the easiest, most comfortable, rock solid stand on the market. Morning, afternoon, or all day long, this is the stand to be in if you want to be comfortable and feel secure. Especially if you are a bigger hunter. Three years now and this stand has not once made a single squeek. Considering its size and weight rating (350 lbs.) this stand is fairly light and easy to pack. This stand is the Cadillac of the climbing stands."
