I got my tree today and had my mom come help me set up to surprise the family. We both couldn't believe how full it was and how well constructed.  My nine year old son and his friends got home as we were getting all of the ornaments out / ready and none of them believed me that it wasn't real until I made them feel the tree.  And that was even before it was decorated!!   It's as nice as the $600-$800+ trees at the local shop that specializes in faux trees.   And mine was less than half the price!!
