Works exactly as advertised. Easily and quietly keeps platform and steps together.
I moved from the Covert Lite after 2 year to this. This is extremely light and very comfortable. Simplicity ensures I dont hang a bazillion things off my saddle.
I switched from a climbing stand to a saddle. I was surprised by the weight of the sticks. SUPER LIGHT! I have set these on some trees in my yard and they bite really tight. Id recommend me these to anyone looking for a light climbing stick set.
