I've got a regular Alpha and an Assault.  I actually prefer the smaller assault.  Neither is as comfortable as a big ol' climber that cradles you like an easy chair, but the Lone Wolves are fine for their intended purpose--solid and light for the mobile hunter.

I've got the Alpha and 2 Assaults as well.  The Assault is plenty big and mighty convenient if you move your stand often, as I do (daily in my case).  I rarely use my Alpha.

I use my Alpha and stick daily. I put my stand up and take it down every sit, easy as pie and I have no problem sitting in my stand all day!

I have an Alpah and love it. The foam seat is definately the most comfortable that I have ever had on a hang on stand. I agree with Steve O, that they still aren't as cozy as a climber, but I much prefer a hang-on for bowhunting....less to get in the way of your bow limbs.

I'm 6 ft tall and weigh 190 #. The only stand I use is my Assault with 4 sticks. It works great, and I'm comfortable

Their platform is big enough to move around when standing and turn different ways without looking down to at your feet or rubbing cables making unwanted noise. Plus the platform is adjustable to make it level regardless how true the tree trunk is, the seat also has this adjustment on it. The seat is a good height, me being 6' and there are no squeaks when moving around,and going from sitting to standing...it is the best stand I have had..2 large hang-on and one hand climber and looking to buy another..Roy

I am 210 and 6'1 and use the assault with 4 sticks and love um.  Like some of the others said, not as comfortable as my Ol Man climber, but can sit all day.
