I was very hesitant about buying a fake tree for the first time ever. I looked everywhere until I found one that I liked. I was not disappointed in this one! It is absolutely gorgeous! I get compliments on it all the time. It does take a little bit of time to set it up right and make sure that all of the branches and needles are separated. However if it's done right it is definitely worth it! Beautiful tree! Very full with no gaps between the branches. I am very satisfied with this purchase!
