My loop is not commercially made, but there is some info on it at:

I have no experience with the Wellbrook loop, but agree with Warren's 
comments. Size does matter in some cases!

I've had good luck with simple one-turn vertical loops supported by tree 
branches. They can't be rotated, of course, but if your areas of 
interest lie along the same line, you're all set.
