This is a cute ceramic tree. It does have that nostalgic feel to it. What I really like is that it has an automatic timer on it that turns the lights on and off. The downside for me is that the lights are not bright when turned on. They’re nice but not brilliant in color. However, I have it placed above the kitchen sink in the window. But even with the kitchen lights off in the evening, the tree still isn’t bright with bulb colors on. I do like the tree and thus I kept it.
