Looked for over 2 years for a great 4.5 - 5 ft tree. This one is great! Excellent price point as well. Used it this Christmas for the first time. Box is compact, easy to store. Tree was easy to assemble and didn't loose many "needles" during the fluffing. Light enough to assemble while on the ground and then lift to cabinet near window for display. Stand is super-sturdy and tree didn't shake at all. Even with a dog galloping through the house!   So glad I found this tree.
