I've been using an API Grand Slam for about 20 years. I love it. Instead of having a cable, it has a plastic coated motorcycle chain which really grabs the tree well. It has a padded seat back that I found got in the way, so I cut it off. I don't sit down much anyway.
Used an API (something) Slam hang-on stand and quick sticks for years. That thing was a mofo to hang, but it was a very well-built, comfortable stand. Sold it just because it was a bit$% to hang.
24HCF in its entirety, is solely responsible for why my children do not have college funds, my mortgage isn't paid-off and why I will never retire early enough to enjoy the remainder of my life.
