Well Built,July 14, 2009
By CSJohnsonfrom IOWA
"I have not hunted out of it yet but I was able to put it together and it seemed very well built. I think the instructions are better than in previous years because I did not have difficult time constructing it. I can not wait to get in it this fall and fling a few arrows."

Great Stand,November 27, 2008
By MooseHornFlatsfrom Bayfield, WI
"I recently purchased this stand, and went on to use it during the Wisconsin gun season. The stand was not difficult to put together, and only took about 45 minuts. Putting it in the tree went fast also. The ladder is a little wobbly when climbing in and out of it, but it is a very sturdy stand if put up correctly. The concelment is awesome, and canmove your feet around a little more than usual. I would ablsolutly recommend this stand to someone."

Ameristep Buckbuster Treestand,October 28, 2008
By OralEngineerfrom Orchard Park NY
"I recently purchased this stand and was concerned about some previous reviews stating how difficult it was to assemble....."assembly directions are terrible" I read. Not true.........followed directions which worked well.....took almost 3 hours from start until against tree and ready to hunt. It is extremely sturdy once positioned but it does take 3 guys to raise it up to the tree. I love this comfortable stand."

Ladder Stand,October 22, 2008
By BRUCKfrom El Centro, CA
"I recently purchased this stand and am very happy with it so far.
I got it because it looked sturdy and had a weight capacity of 300 lbs.
It weighs about 87 lbs so it sin't something that you want to carry all over the woods or change location on alot unless you have lots of friends. (only neg)
Once set up, it is sturdy and easy to get into. At 18' you have a true birdseye view!
The seat is very comfortable but you will have to stand up every once in a while to stretch and to keep from falling asleep!
When I do stand up and manuver as if to take a shot, the stand doesn't wobble so I feel secure.
I would recommend this stand very highly."

Team Realtree 18' Buck Buster Ladder Stand,October 21, 2008
By huntinhornsfrom NC
"All mention the uselessness of the instructions, they are confusing at best. A bit heavy but worth the weight. Otherwise there is nothing bad to say about this stand. Very solid and quiet. Very comfortable seat. Two kills in two hunting days with deer less than 10 yards from this stand. I would definitely buy another one these stands."

18' Buckbuster,October 14, 2008
By mpbowhunterfrom Southwestern, PA
"I found this stand to be time consuming to assemble. The directions included in the box are worthless. I found the directions off of the internet to be much better. It took me about an hour to assemble the stand and about another hour for two people to put it up. I would reccommend having three people when attempting to put it up. Once it was up, the stand was very solid. I do like the height and the size of the platform. However, I do not like the narrow ladder. A person's feet barely fit on the ladder with a pair of hunting boots on."

Great Stand,September 22, 2008
By RobbieSfrom Vilonia, Arkansas
"As everyone else has mentioned, the directions are pretty much non-existent. Use the picture and you can get it set up pretty easily. Once up, it is a great stand, with the extra height. Very quiet and comfortable for a long day of hunting. Easy to make an all day hunt on this stand. I would buy again and highly recommend. The extra height is nice as well."

NEED INSTRUCTIONS!!!,September 3, 2008
By TWMiddlefrom Georgia
"I was torn when trying to rate this one because I gave it a "0" from the time I took it out of the box until hours & hours later when I finally figured out how to put it together, but then I gave it a "5" once on the tree. If you are not extremely mechanically inclined, buy a different stand. Not only are the instructions that come with this stand not helpful at all, I actually found them somewhat misleading. The diagrams are impossible to follow, and in fact, at least one is wrong. After putting the stand together twice incorrectly while trying to use the instructions, I finally threw them away, laid out the pieces & built it as I thought it was supposed to be built. I was pleased with the stand when I finally got it onto a tree. It is a good height & so far feels very solid. I like the magnetic leaf strips used to camouflage the ladder; I just hope the magnets are strong enough to hold the strips on during storms. I also like the blind that came with it, although it doesn't seem to fit like the one pictured on the box. Bottom line, it's a good stand but was a huge headache for me from the box to the tree."

By Garst6from MI
"This is a very nice stand for the money. I read the reviews and agree the directions are not the best, but it was still very easy to put together. Once set up it is very solid and comfortable. I have not had the opportunity to hunt out of it yet, but I'm confident it will work out well."

bigger platform?,March 27, 2008

Great Stand,March 16, 2008
By arkansashuntingfrom Hot Springs, AR
"Got this stand for Christmas, great stand, however the instructions are not all that great, but the stand is not all that difficult to assemble either. I have never been much for hunting out of a stand mostly because most are uncomfortable, and my slight fear of heights if I do not feel I have a solid platform or moving room. Now I have a stand I cant get out of, in fact, I got the flu because of it, should have been at home in that weather instead of in my stand. 8-10 hours in this thing is a walk in the park…..could be a couple of inches wider in the seat though."

TREE STANDS,January 16, 2008
By DB712from MAINE
"REALLY LIKE THE 18 FOOT HIGH PART OF THIS STAND , THE COUPLE OF EXTRA FEET SEEM TO MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE. THE NARROW LADDER BLENDS BETTER WITH THE TREES."
