National Tree Company 'Feel Real' Artificial Full Downswept Christmas Tree, Green, Douglas Fir, Includes Stand, 7.5 Feet

I was very nervous buying an artificial tree without seeing it in person, but since I had 30 days to send it back if I didn't like it, I took the leap of faith. This tree is gorgeous and looks so real. It is very full and the tips of the branches look so real! I can't wait to decorate this tree!!

Los soportes de las bisagras de las ramas son completamente de metal,es bastante estable y las ramas exteriores si se ven realistas,mejor usar guantes para no rasparse al acomodar las ramas y una vez abiertas prácticamente no tiene huecos

When the tree comes out of the box, it doesn't look great. After going to the National Tree website and watching a video on how to fluff out the branches and I followed their recommendations, I ended up with an absolutely gorgeous tree.Very pleased with this purchase!

After many years of real trees that I had to get, haul in, install, light up and water on my own, only to see the poor things die after a week, since the tree sits not far from our wood stove, I decided I wanted to make my life easier. I looked and looked for a good looking tree. Found this one that came without lights, and in used condition for less that half the price. It came fast and looked brand new-the box did not seem to have been open. Setting it up took a while. I suggest to fluff the bottom section first without adding the middle section: fluff in a spiral for each branch, holding the branches above with a little ropes so it’s easier to do branch by branch. 90 degrees bend for the fake branches in the middle, and more like a 45 degrees angle bend for the real-looking end branches. I suggest you wrap your lights just after fluffing the bottom section, starting from bottom and going up, ending with a connection at the top of the bottom section, so you can disconnect and leave the lights when you dismantle for storage. Then add your middle section, fluff and wrap your lights your that section, plugging in into the bottom section lights and going up. I ended up fluffing the top on its own, on my lap, and wrapping the light with the left over I had from the middle section, starting from the top and going down. I ended up with about 6 feet of leftover lights between top and middle section, allowing me plenty of flexibility to dismantle and store, but easy to push in the middle. I had set up the tree in a different room, but with that method, disconnecting lights and dismantling took few seconds, and I was able to carry bottom section to the final display room, then middle and top section together, and it took seconds to put back together. Then it was only the fun of hanging ornaments. Of all the little branches, only 2 out of hundreds were loose (the fake looking ones in the middle), and only one of these fell off. Overall, gorgeous tree, very realistic looking and easy to set up. Next year, set up should take only seconds, now that fluffing and lights are installed.

There were numbers of factors when it comes to buying a tree for us. Unlit, 7’, full, realistic looking, under $300. Voila, couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.We’ve looked at many other companies’ tree (king of Christmas, Balsam Hill, etc), and after much considerations, we decided on this one, and man, it’s beautiful!Set up was extremely easy. Fluffing took me 2.5-3 hours and putting up light 1 hour, it was worth it tho. After the light is up everything else was easy. (Attached a photo of mid-fluffing. Bottom section took me 1 full hour to look like that.)We have an 8’ ceiling, and 12”h target tree topper I clipped to the stem, not the top of branch. And there’s still space from top of tree topper to ceiling.Tree collar is from Amazon.Ornaments from Michael’s and home goods.LED lights from Amazon (500 LED light just enough for 7’ tree)
