I've got the Millenium tree seat, the Hammock seat and a Niff-T seat...use all three. Actually like the hammock the best all around...so small to pack and real light. Use the Millenium as a semi permanent...it's in a heavily traveled fencerow right now. The Niff-t works best for me using the short leg with me kneeling and sorta leaning back into it. Like and use all three.

I don't know if they are still available and they do not swivel, but the Waldrop Pac Seat has been excellent for me for the last 3-4 years. I have used it in all kinds of terrain with good results.

I been switching between a Torges and the Waldrop this season. The Waldrop is winning out. Ease of set up and mobility. I fold the bottom, back legs up and zip tie a piece of plastic netting to it. This enables me carry extra clothes and such inside the netting. Been using the Waldrop with a haversack and it's proving to be a great combo!

I made my own hammock seat out of two yards of camo duck fabric, a toilet plunger handle, an old cam-buckle strap, a couple of hose clamps, and a crutch tip. Haven't had to sit in it more than six hours but it is comfortable for me for that period. Whole thing weighs about 2 pounds. Added a shoulder strap out of 550 cord and it carries just like a back or side quiver so I can go anywhere with it. Sets up in about 1 minute. Next experiment is a Torges seat.

Waldrop pack seat is the best I've found, but I haven't been able to find em for a while. Not sure if he is still making them or not.

Its hard to beat the millennium for comfort. It has increased my set times by hours literally. I have back issues and usually have to stretch or crack my back often due to compression, but something about the millennium makes it more tolerable. which makes me move less and in turn I see more game. Or less game sees me anyways.

Just my .02.

Waldron is great has comfort, light weight and easy to carry on back and shoot, but does not swivel... Ron is correct, a guy's needs several seats depending on situation...

I have tried them all over the years including the hammock seat and redneck blind chair, which I still use in some situations. But I can say that nothing beats the comfort of the BlackOut Swivel Hard-Arm Chair...its comfort is second to none; although it is a little heavy for a long walk, the arms have not been a problem for me while shooting.

Waldrop, very happy with mine. Still being made one at a time in Georgia by Mr. Waldrop last I knew.
Very light weight and comfortable and quiet.

Kennyb, Millennium offers both. The g-100 is free standing with three telescoping legs that detach in seconds and store in a small pouch under the chair...unbelievably light. It also has a carry strap.
Their other model M-300 straps to a tree.

I have three different seats depending on the situation. The millennium g-100 is for pop up blinds or free standing situations (no tree or post to lean on). The m-300 for long sits where there is a tree available to lean on and then there is the ground hunter seat for walk and stalk or sits of a couple hours +- or hunts where I'm scouting and not knowing were I'm going to set up.
The ground hunter seat works great for turkey hunts too.

The one and only draw back I have noticed on the Hammock seat is in cold (25 degrees and less) is the fabric is noisy when setting up, I'm thinking of changing it to cotton of some kind just to see if it is any better.
One thing,,, Whitetail deer at 20yrds and less at eye level are tough to draw a trad bow on....
