I am completely in love with this tree! I looked for a while and I really wanted a tree that had colored and white lights on it. Not only does it have both, but there are several settings that make each color flash, stay or flicker like in a forest. Really beautiful! As others have said there was a little gaping towards the bottom. I was able to move the 1st and 2nd sections a little and fill them in. The trunk being flocked takes care of any other gaping. I am really praying it stores well and looks great for a few years to come. I absolutely would purchase again!
