National Tree Company Artificial Full Christmas Tree, Green, Dunhill Fir, Includes Stand, 9 Feet

I am in love. I bought this tree as our first foray into the world of artificial Christmas trees, as I had low expectations. We had shopped in local stores for one, and each one seemed plastic, cheap and not full or realistic at all. The ones that were ALMOST passable were about 3x the cost of this one, and I found that kind of hard to rationalize. I saw this tree, read previous reviews, and did some comparison shopping on other sites for the exact same tree. The price I got here was so unbelievably reasonable that I worried it would be terrible. IT WAS NOT! First of all, the thing weighs 63 pounds! It's not going anywhere. Even the stand was made of quality, heavyweight material, so we were pleased right off. It stayed in the box mostly for almost 3 weeks while we moved furniture around to fit this tree in our living room. But I did take out the very top and fluffed it out a bit. I was impressed --- it was real-looking and very full. Then today, I got to set up the tree, and it is nearly done. I have to fluff about 1/5 of the tree and then it's time to decorate. What I can tell you so far is that this is a very, very full tree. I don't have any spare spots and the branches are heavy duty enough to handle all my ornaments. There are so many tips! It does take some time to fluff and get it looking right, but so far it is perfect. Even hubby loves it, and he is a real-tree only guy. My only recommendation is to definitely wear long sleeves to protect your arms. Gloves are good too but cover from the elbow down to the wrist to avoid scratches like the ones I got today. Even with that, I would highly recommend this tree to anyone. It's amazing and we are so happy with it. Now to get some fresh garland in the house for that smell, and we are ready for the holidays!

For as long as I can remember we have gotten a real tree. Last year when we got a tree a foot shorter than this tree that cost almost as much as this one I was done. I was tired of paying for a tree that I had to hope would make it to Christmas.My wife and I talked it over and we decided that we switch to an artificial tree. After looking at all the options and reviews, I settled on this 7ft. tree from National Tree Company.Needle less to say I'm very impressed with quality of this tree. When I first opened it up my wife thought it was coming out looking like a tree. I explained we had to fluff it and we got to work. It only took about an hour to get it the way we wanted. She joked that we finally don't have to try and hide the hole we always get with a real one. Its super easy to put together and fluff. Its sturdy, and fills out nice. For the price, this tree will last for years to come. Its easy to move around and you don't have to worry about spilling water. Instead of picking out a tree each year, now we let the kids decide where it will be placed in the living room. The best part is its fire retardant and I don't have to worry about it going up in flames. Beautiful with a peace of mind that doesn't break your bank every year.

It was time to finally put my dad’s old bald Christmas tree to rest this year so me and my husband finally decided to get a tree of our own it took us a very long time to find the perfect tree because the ones at the store were either to expensive or way to tall so we’re happy to have come across this one being rather affordable and very beautiful in our opinion. I really enjoy the flexibility of being able to choose your own lights to put on & it came out so nice with the ones we added it’s a work in progress but it is rather sturdy for an artificial tree very prickly but it was the perfect height for us but don’t make the same mistake as we did and not take the dimensions of the tree into consideration. We ended up having to move a couch to make room for it but glad it all worked in the end everything turned out great so happy to be able share our beautiful tree this year for the holiday. Easy to set up with three separate towers and easy to bush up for your own preference and liking.

Very nice tree for the price range and gives everyone a nostalgic feeling. I was skeptical when I put the first piece on, because it looked very thin and scraggly. We lost about four tips just from general handling. Each one branch spreads into three ends, so you cannot skimp on the tree fluffing! It takes time and dedication (or perfectionist complex). Once everything is set it fills out nicely. The needles could be longer to help achieve a fuller look. With decorations at night it looks great but the thinness shows during the day. If you really went all out with lights, ribbon and ornaments you probably wouldn’t notice. Overall we’re very happy with it and hope it lasts a good while.
