The branches do not have the same amount of garland on them, if they were all like the thicker ones, the tree would fluff and fill in better.  They are very scratchy and if you don't wear gloves your hands are scratched and poked and red when you're done.  The lights were put on poorly.  The light wires hang down and look like a mixed up mess, They look like a 5 year old put them on.  The tree is definitely not worth the retail price of $1311.  If we would not have purchased at the price we got it for I would want to send it back.  Once it is fluffed and decorated it is a nice looking tree.
