This is a beautiful full tree which is exactly as described. Very easy to put together, 10 minutes maybe. Now fluffing is another conversation, but put on some Christmas music, sing along and a glass of wine, 2 hours later and it was all worth it! The control for changing the lights is great, my favorite is the combination of blinking / twinkling clear and color. This is the last tree I will ever buy. I promise you will love this tree.
